Policy-based authorisation

ACLs are hard to manage because they are stream specific. Adding poicies that would cover things like category would make authorisation a lot easier to set up.

Handle backpressure

ESDB can be overloaded with read/write operations and it has no limitations enforced on the edge to prevent this. The idea is to set the connection limit (in general or per operation) and deny requests when the limit is exceeded. It will improve t...

ESDB has access control lists (ACLs) as the primary method to achieve granular (per stream) authorisation. However, ACLs need to be set up per stream, which is a burden for developers. Also, if the auth rules change, all the streams need to get th...

Automated Scavenging

Scavenging is a routine maintenance operation in ESDB, but it requires DB admins to run it either manually or using some automation like curl call to the DB API executed by cron. It's not only inconvinient, but also isn't optimal as scavenging nor...
