  1. As a database administrator or developer,
    I would like to access the service upgrade logs after a failed and reverted upgrade,
    so that I would be able to troubleshoot the problem myself before retrying, and without requiring the assistance of the support team.

  2. As a user of Aiven for Cassandra,
    I want to use the most optimized default settings possible. Apache Cassandra's defaults settings may be outdated as use case evolve and time passes.
    This comes without me, the user, having to change any settings. However, I should be able to tweak those settings if needed in specific cases.

  4. As a developer or chemical database administrator,
    I would like to perform chemical substructure searches and similarity searches on molecules and reactions efficiently,
    so that I can quickly retrieve relevant chemical data and improve the accuracy and speed of chemical searches within the PostgreSQL database.

  5. As a security administrator or developer, I would like to utilize Row-Level Security (RLS) in PostgreSQL so that I can control data access at a granular level based on specific conditions, ensuring that users only see and modify the data they are authorized to access. Additionally, I want the ability to assign the BYPASSRLS attribute to trusted roles or users when necessary, allowing them to have unrestricted access to data while still maintaining overall security.

  6. As a developer or data scientist looking to carry out advanced analytics,
    I want to leverage ANN Vector search across the data in my Cassandra instance,
    so that I can develop machine learning applications and capabilities.

    In addition, the following up stream CEP is of interest to me : https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/CEP-30%3A+Approximate+Nearest+Neighbor%28ANN%29+Vector+Search+via+Storage-Attached+Indexes

  7. As an organisation running an Aiven for Cassandra instance,
    I want to have the ability to revert an instance back to a specific point in time,
    so that I can recover to a known safe state, to mitigate the impact of any data issues and to meet my organisation's disaster recovery policy.

  8. As a potential customer looking to migrate to Aiven for Cassandra from an existing external Cassandra cluster,
    I want to have a mechanism to replicate from my external cluster to a new Aiven for Cassandra service,
    so that I can migrate large amounts of data easily.

  9. As developer,
    I want to use the ip4r extension as the built-in IP address types in Postgres work okay for many applications, but are lacking when it comes to applications that heavily work with IPs, like ours. ip4r adds several IP types with expanded functionalities that enable us to perform far more efficient "IP in range" type lookups, as well as tracking IP ranges that don't fall neatly in CIDR boundaries, plus general performance improvements. Very useful for our malicious IP threat feed service, abuseipdb.com, as you can imagine.

  11. As backend and DevOps engineer / SRM, I want to be able to visualize in Grafana metrics related to WAL files buildup due to lagging or missing replication slots.
    This will help us debug WAL bloat which might exhaust the disk space and better understand the cause.

    Mainly the metric filecount_size_bytes will be useful. Also any metric that would allow us to monitor per database service:
    1. Total WAL size.
    2. Size of WAL retained due to replication lag.
    3. Rate in which we consume the WAL for the replication over time (connector consumption rate).
    4. Rate in which we…

  12. As a DBA or developer,
    I want to be able to stop/start my services without losing replication slots
    so that I can resume my logical replication flows even after a power cycle.

    Similar recreation is currently done during nodes failover: https://aiven.io/blog/aiven-for-pg-recreates-logical-replication-slots

  14. As a database administrator or developer,
    I would like to be able to change the behavior of the MySQL Optimizer at the global level by changing the variable of the optimizerswitch with values such as "indexmergeintersection=off" or "preferordering_index=off",
    so that I would be able to optimize my query performance.

  16. As DBA I want to have better logging using the PostgreSQL v15 logging feature to save the logs in JSON format so that I can integrate these logs in OpenSearch and provide better readability of these logs.

    This will provide 2 things:
    1 - Parse of the fields of the log entries -> give more capabilities searching the logs - easily filter some field like user/database/application name
    2 - Multi line queries in one log entry -> right now, multi line queries saves each line in a different log entry, which is very hard to filter a full query since…

  17. As a MySQL user
    I want to tune my service parameters according to best practises (in this case parameter joinbuffersize)
    so that I can make my application performance better as I cannot use indexes
    In addition, it might be useful to be able some other parameters mentioned here (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/server-system-variables.html#sysvar_join_buffer_size)
