What's New

Introduces advanced path-finding algorithms, CCH path index, and RDB encoding v20 upgrade.

Breaking Changes

  • RDB encoding v20 changes serialization format.
  • Decoder logic changes remove full-sync requirement.

New Features

  • A* search with admissible haversine heuristic.
  • Yen's k-shortest paths with goal-directed spur search.
  • CCH path index supporting DDL and Query operations.
  • All-shortest-paths and k-shortest-paths procedures.

Improvements

  • Incremental maintenance for CCH path index.
  • Optimality and cost-model fixes for path algorithms.
  • Decoder logic improvements removing full-sync requirement.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixes crash on MERGE preceded by an erroring clause.
  • Fixes crash when a clause errors mid plan-build.
  • Fixes Replica SIGSEGV applying UPDATE_EDGE/UPDATE_NODE.

Upgrade Notes

Requires migration due to RDB encoding v20 serialization format changes. Decoder logic updated to remove full-sync requirement.
