Server-side read models

It would be cool if we could take the users code and run it 'serverside' (meaning, in the nodes or in sidecars) the read models could be in memory, or persisted in one of a small selection of built in stores (stream store, kv store, relational sto...

Support certificates with EC (elliptic curve) keys

ESDB currently supports only RSA keys in certificates when specifying --certificate-private-key-file. The advantage of using EC keys would be that the key is much smaller for the same security level (EC takes 256 bit vs RSA 2048 bit for same secur...

Read only start up mode

Have to ability to start a single node EventStore in complete read-only mode. This will allow the rebuilding of corrupted indexes on a different server from a production backup without worrying about surpassing the production checkpoint due to new...

Persistent subscriptions next-gen

Seems like persistent subscriptions aim to solve two problems: Server-side checkpointing for use cases when events are being forwarded to a place that doesn't have the ability to store checkpoints (message brokers), or users just don't want to dea...

Support running ESDB on ARM64 Linux distributions

Substantial population of developers use Apple computers with ARM chip, and they currently cannot run ESDB locally even in Docker. We do have an "alpha" image but nobody gives any guarantees that everything works there. By providing a supported im...

Make the scavenge.db file take up less space

At the moment it has to detect and track stream hash collisions, but it would be possible to track these more easily in the database itself (without taking additional space) and remove the significant bulk of scavenge.db. It may also make the accu...

Crypto-assurance for audit

Crypto-assurance provides guarantees against mutations, truncation, and reordering. Although ESDB doesn't provide nativa mutation and reordering capability, data on disk can be tampered to change the content of events. ESDB supports truncation wit...

Store some configuration in the database

ESDB is primarily configured using the config file, which is located on each cluster node. Some features (projections, connectors) are configured in the database itself. It can be confusing to understand where things are configured and why some co...

Support authorisation when reading from $all

Currently, reads and subscriptions to $all require admin access, which isn't good for security. Supporting auth for $all will have performance impact when ACLs are used, but in combination with policies it could be fast enoguh because policies, un...
