Summary

We have made significant progress on YSQL, the PostgreSQL-compatible distributed SQL API for YugabyteDB, with updates including distributed multi-shard/multi-table ACID transactions, global & consistent secondary indexes, and native JSON data type. We also released YugabyteDB 1.1 with a ton of great features, including performance boost, public/private IP bindings for multi/hybrid cloud or multi-region deployments, user authentication, Redis-compatibility features, and support for multiple databases or namespaces. Our team has been busy writing blog posts, producing technical videos, and enhancing the documentation to provide high-quality resources for users. We've also added role-based access control (RBAC) for the YCQL API, improved serialization format of data types in YSQL, and are preparing for an upcoming release with native Kubernetes support for YSQL. Our team is growing fast, and we're looking for talented individuals to join us in Sunnyvale, CA.
