Sep 1, 2025

September 2025 highlights for atlas-metastore: delivered key reliability and performance features, completed feature testing, and strengthened cache/Redis resilience. Implemented robust error handling across methods, FF testing and implementation completed, and cache improvements including TTL tuning, Redis thundering herd mitigation, and infinite retries. Config and sentinel handling updates (CHECK_SENTINELS_LIST) and tag default flag handling with improved logs contributed to stability and onboarding. Notable stability fixes include Cassandra local setup compaction adjustments and related stability/reversion work. These changes reduce misconfigurations, improve latency and cache warmth, mitigate Redis thundering, and strengthen resilience for production workloads and new tenants.
