Today, we’re excited to announce our latest release of our distributed database—Citus 7.2. With this release, we’re making Citus more of a drop-in replacement for your single-node Postgres database, so you don’t need to adapt your SQL for a distributed system.
For multi-tenant applications where the single-tenant queries were scoped to a single machine, Citus already provided full SQL support. . The improvements in Citus 7.2 take our support for distributed SQL one big step further. With Citus database version 7.2, we now extend our distributed SQL support to queries that run on data spread across a cluster of machines. This becomes particularly important for real-time analytics workloads, where even the most complex SELECT queries need to be parallelized across machines.
If you’re into bulleted lists, here’s the quick overview of what’s new in Citus database version 7.2 for distributed queries that span across machines. For an overview of other recent Citus features check out these blogs about distributed transactions and Citus 7.1.
