Feb 1, 2025February 2025: Metabase cross-database improvements delivering business value through MongoDB and SQL data-type enhancements, reliability improvements, and correctness fixes. Key features include MongoDB driver enhancements (UUID handling in BSON, query prettification, and UUID-pattern filtering) and SQL/JDBC array data-type handling improvements (Postgres arrays converted to vectors, read-column-thunk support for java.sql.Array, and robust null-array handling). Major reliability work updated test stability (deterministic test ordering and proper test-database teardown) and a correctness fix for AVG aggregation on Redshift and SQL Server by casting to float with updated tests. These changes improve data accuracy, query readability, cross-database compatibility, and CI reliability, enabling safer deployments and broader Mongo/SQL support across data sources.
