Chained replicas

Current implementation of read-only replicas require them to be connected to the cluster. It means that every new replica adds some overhead to the operational cluster nodes, particularly its leader. It creates limitation of the feature as one mig...

Chunk format optimised for reading

The idea is to rewrite the chunk file after it stops accepting writes, so it can handle reads better. Re-sort events in closed chunks to group events of the same stream together for efficient IOPS use. Could also save having to repeat the stream n...

Configurable write guarantees

Allow clients to control write guarantees. Right now, ESDB confirms the write when the leader has flushed data to disk, and the majority has the data in memory. Possible additional options: All followers have data in memory so they can do consiste...
