Roadmap / Features Planned #265
Description
Do you have a Roadmap or Future Features plan?
- deep query execution plan visualizers
- enterprise backup orchestrators
- telemetry
- management dashboard/portal
- Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR): Continuous transaction log shipping.
Without microsecond-level rollback capabilities, application logic bugs or human errors in a high-throughput, sharded cluster carry a high risk of catastrophic data loss. - Automated Data Tiering (Hierarchical Storage): To achieve huge scale while keeping costs low, the engine could natively and transparently offload historical, cold data blocks to object storage (Azure Blob / AWS S3) while retaining active data on local NVMe, without breaking the query routing layer.
- Row-Level and Column-Level Security (RLS/CLS): If building multi-tenant SaaS or compliance-driven architectures, evaluating access policies natively within the SQL execution engine is essential to eliminate data leakage risks before the data reaches your API proxy layer.
- Lets Encrypt Certs ?

Thanks for the great questions! Here's the honest status of each feature:
✅ Already Shipped (v1.9.2)
• Row-Level Security (RLS) — live in SharpCoreDB.Server with Enforced/Audit modes and per-tenant discriminator-column filtering. Column-Level Security (CLS/masking) is next on the security roadmap.
• Telemetry — Prometheus-compatible metrics endpoint is already exposed by the server. SharpCoreDB.Projections ships OpenTelemetry-ready projection metrics.
• Management Dashboard — SharpCoreDB.WebViewer is the Razor Pages admin portal. More panels (query stats, live connections, plan viewer) are being added incrementally.
• Query plan infrastructure — QueryPlanCache, ExecutionPlan, and QueryOptimizer all exist internally. A visual EXPLAIN tree in WebViewer is on the near-term list.
🔶 Roadmap — Near-Term
• Let's Encrypt / ACME auto-renewal — Currently only manual PFX/PEM cert paths are supported. ACME integration (via Kestrel + Certes) is planned so self-hosted deployments get automatic cert rotation with zero manual steps.
• Visual Query Execution Plan Explorer — The internal plan model is already there; the WebViewer needs the tree/graph UI to expose it.
• Column-Level Security — Completes the RLS story started in v1.9.2.
• Enterprise Backup Orchestrator — Scheduled full/incremental backups with remote targets (Azure Blob, S3, SFTP) and retention policies. The WAL and RecoveryManager are the foundation.
🔴 Roadmap Longer Term
• Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) — The distributed TransactionLog and WAL exist, but continuous log shipping and microsecond-targeted restore across the full engine is a significant undertaking. It will be built on top of the backup orchestrator.
• Automated Data Tiering — Cold archival already works for time-series (BucketTier.Hot/Cold). Transparent hot-NVMe → cold-Blob/S3 routing for general page-based storage is on the long-term roadmap and requires storage engine changes.
If any of these are blockers for your use case, open an issue or upvote an existing one — user-driven features get prioritised first. 🙏
