May 1, 2025May 2025 highlights for apache/pinot: Strengthened Pinot's logical-tables governance and scalability with a comprehensive end-to-end Lifecycle Management feature. Delivered logical table CRUD operations, routing separation from physical tables, and schema enforcement for creation/update, along with support for query overrides and quotas. Implemented time boundary computation for hybrid tables, routing management enhancements, and API improvements (database-scoped filtering) to simplify cluster-wide configurations. Added broker selection improvements and a new GET /logicalTables API to surface database-specific tables, improving observability and routing decisions. This work reduces misconfigurations, enhances resource control, and lays a scalable foundation for cross-cluster deployments. Notes on stability: no standalone critical bugs reported; however, validation and routing robustness were strengthened as part of these feature work, demonstrating proficiency in Java, API design, distributed system governance, and performance-oriented engineering.
