May 2026: Delivered foundational storage iteration capabilities and maintenance workflows across core and contrib repositories. Implemented Walker interface and WalkFunc to enable efficient iteration over storage entries and TTL-based garbage collection groundwork, plus an atomic apply pattern for deletions. Implemented storage.Walker in the file storage extension to support migrations and maintenance workflows. Added tests and documentation to ensure reliability and discoverability. These changes unlock safe, scalable storage maintenance and migration capabilities, reducing stale data and storage costs while enabling near-zero-downtime upgrades.
