June 2025 monthly summary for Caideyipi/iotdb highlighting reliability and restart resilience improvements. Implemented Pipe Progress Persistence on DataNode Shutdown to ensure accurate recovery after restart by persisting pipe progress indexes locally. Introduced a dedicated method to persist all progress indexes and wired this call into the DataNode shutdown hook. This work reduces potential data loss during shutdowns and shortens recovery time, contributing to higher availability and data integrity in the IoTDB pipe subsystem.
