File format change

Note

This version includes a backward incompatible file format change for YSQL. This means that if you have an existing cluster with YSQL schema, then you will not be able to connect to the YSQL database after upgrading to this version.

There are two ways to address the above note.

  • If you don't care about preserving your existing data, then delete your cluster, and create a new cluster with 1.2.9.
  • If you want to continue using your existing data, then please save your data (in the form of SQL statements), delete the cluster, create a new cluster with 1.2.9 and then load the previously saved data.

YSQL changes

  • Add support for identity column. #1267
  • Support INSERT INTO ... ON CONFLICT clause, #1109
  • Set default prefetch limit to 4096, #1206

  • Add support for "COMMENT ON" statements, #1332
  • Fix indexes on temporary tables, #1349
  • Store object ids as unsigned integer in DocDB, #1392
  • Disallow INTERVAL data type in a primary key or secondary index column, #1397
  • Support CREATE and DROP DOMAIN, #1310

YCQL changes

  • JSON UPSERT: Avoid decoding as int to check for array offset, #1039
  • Set default upper limit for CQL prepared statement cache size, #1406

Bug fixes

  • Pass upperbound to intent aware iterator, #1233
  • Fix Snappy detection outside of RocksDB, #1300
