| May I suggest looking at YugabyteDB, which is a distributed SQL database built on actual PostgreSQL 11.2 engine? It's way ahead of CockroachDB in terms of feature support. YugabyteDB has UDFs, stored procedures, distributed transactions, the range types are working from what I can tell, at least the example from here: https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Extract_days_from_range_typ... works right out of the box, just copy paste. Postgres extensions are of course working. Orafce, postgis (with extra work needed for gin indexes, afair...), custom extensions. YugabyteBD == Postgres. The query planner, analyzer and executor are all Postgres. Mind you, some features are not readily available because handling them properly in a distributed manner takes effort. Those unsupported features are disabled on the grammar level, before being worked on. But - unsupported features will not corrupt your data. Missing features are enabled very fast. For example, I have recently contributed foreign data wrapper support: https://github.com/yugabyte/yugabyte-db/pull/9650 (enables postgres_fdw at a usable level) and working on table inheritance now. Yugabyte is an amazing bit of technology and more people should know about it. By the way - it's Apache 2 with no strings attached. For clarification: I'm not associated with Yugabyte in any way other than very happy user and contributor. Yugabyte organizes the Distributed SQL Summit later this month: https://distributedsql.org/. Might be a good opportunity to learn more about it. Second clarification: I'll be speaking at the event. |
