Roadmap

Implemented

• Core Features
  • Automatic many-to-many relationship management
  • Persistence contexts
• Storage Systems
  • File system
• Indexing Systems
  • Local Lucene
• Serialization
  • Xstream XML

In Progress

• Core Features
  • Class versioning and data conversion
  • Manual lazy loading
  • Transactions
• Integrations
  • JAX-RS

Planned

• Core Features
  • Store a history of data
    • This service is provided by the Storage System
    • Utilize versioning built into underlying storage system wherever possible
  • Automatic conflict reconciliation using three-way merge
  • Full ACID capabilities (optionally applied to certain entities)
  • Automatic lazy loading
  • Constraints (value uniqueness)
  • Generalized query and index semantics (right now it mimics Lucene too much)
  • Lazy collections with automatic range loading and memory/storage optimization
    • Special collection serialization
    • Optional (not used by default... only for extra-long lists)
  • Console tools
    • Naked Objects
    • Query language using Groovy (or another language) DSL
      • Internal optimization for search implementation (e.g. elasticsearch filters)
      • Internal optimization for storage implementation (e.g. map-reduce)
  • Add sorting (order-by)
• Storage Systems
  • Hadoop Hbase
  • JDBC
• Indexing Systems
  • SOLR
  • Elastic Search
  • JDBC
• Integrations
  • Spring
  • JavaEE6 (JSF+CDI)
  • Export to relational databases

Possible

• Core Features
  • Utilize columns in some storage mechanisms for optimization, such as:
    • lists (many-many relationships)
    • versions
• Storage Systems
  • BigTable
  • Cassandra
  • CouchDB
• Indexing Systems
  • Katta
  • Hive (works with HBase storage)
  • JDBC
• Serialization
  • AVRO
  • JSON (works with CouchDB storage)
