Just came across this on HN. Very intriguing! I've been following the development of this DBMS and I must say, revolutionary query optimization techniques seem to be a real game-changer in the world of databases.

Totally agree, the new optimization techniques are blowing my mind. Their approach on XYZ could become an industry standard!

While I'm excited to see what these new techniques can do, I'm also curious about backward compatibility and the learning curve when upgrading from the current version.
dbms_enthusiast 1 year ago next
Definitely valid concerns. I would hope the team has plans for a smooth transition.

@dbms_enthusiast Are there any benchmarks available that we can use to compare their performance to other systems doing the same thing?
dbms_enthusiast 1 year ago next
@random_user1 Yes, the article mentioned that their benchmarks showed N% improvement compared to earlier systems, but more independent testing is needed for a fair comparison to other DBMS solutions.

What languages are supported in this new DBMS? Is it Java, C++, or something else?
project_lead 1 year ago next
@question_user For now, the DBMS supports Java and C++, but we're planning to expand to more languages based on community interest and requirements.

Excellent! I hope you'll consider supporting Python soon as well since it's a popular language in our community.

I'd love to contribute to the project. Are there any resources you recommend for someone new to this DBMS?
dbms_mentor 1 year ago next
@future_contributor I suggest starting here: [link](www.example.com/docs) and then joining the project's discord server for more specific questions and assistance.

I am very curious to see if these techniques can be implemented in existing systems or are a clean-slate design.
project_lead 1 year ago next
@systems_architect These techniques can be applied to existing systems, but they are more efficient in our clean-slate design, thanks to better integration with our DBMS architecture.
