Worked on the yugabyte/yugabyte-db repository to deliver first-class support for $natural sorting within the aggregation pipeline. Implemented the $natural:-1 sort order by updating the HandleSort logic, enabling the database to accurately interpret and apply both natural and reverse insertion order during sorting operations. This enhancement ensures that analytics workloads can leverage natural sorting semantics, simplifying query construction and aligning results with user expectations. The work involved backend development using C programming and database technologies, focusing on precise handling of sort direction. The feature was merged as a pull request, reflecting a targeted and well-scoped contribution over the month.
