Confusingly, there is another new PostgreSQL storage effort called "Zedstore": https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CALfoeiuF-m5jg51mJUPm5...

Disclosure: I work for VMware, who are sponsoring zedstore development via Greenplum.

Are you working on zedstore? It is one of the postgres developments that I am anticipating the most. cstore_fdw looked pretty cool but it never lived up to the hype and had a lot of not so intuitive limitations. A storage engine built using the new table access APIs seems like the right foundation.

Any word on when you are expecting stability? I'd love to see this in RDS.

I'm not working on zedstore. I just like peppering the folks who do with my wishlist items (bitemporalism! query time forecasting and progress measurements! support for query results in binary formats like Avro, ORC or Arrow! kittens and unicorns!) while they try to do useful work.
