## v0.1.0 Beta {date="2025-03-17"}

### Core
#### Features
- **Query and storage enhancements**
  - New ability to stream response data for CSV and JSON queries, similar to how JSONL streaming works. 
  - Parquet files are now cached on the query path, improving performance.
  - Query buffer is incrementally cleared when snapshotting, lowering memory spikes.

- **Processing engine improvements**
  - New _scheduled_ trigger enables Python plugins to run on a custom, time-defined basis.
  - New _request_ trigger enables calling Python plugins via HTTP requests.
  - New in-memory cache for storing data temporarily; cached data can be stored for a single trigger or across all triggers. 
  - Integration with virtual environments and install packages. You can now specify a Python virtual environment via the CLI or `VIRTUAL_ENV` variable and install packages or a `requirements.txt`.
  - Python plugins are now implemented through triggers only. Simply create a trigger that references your Python plugin code file directly.
  - Snapshots are now persisted in parallel, improving performance by running jobs simultaneously, rather than sequentially.
  - Write to logs from within the Processing Engine.

- **DB and CLI improvements**
  - You can now specify the precision on your timestamps for writes using the `--precision` flag. Includes nano/micro/milli/seconds (ns/us/ms/s).
  - Added a new `show` system  subcommand to display system tables with different options via SQL (default limit: 100)
  - Clearer table creation error messages

#### Bug fixes
  - If a database was created and the service was killed before any data was written, the database would not be retained. 
  - A last cache with specific “value” columns could not be queried.
  - Running CTRL-C no longer stopped an InfluxDB process, due to a Python trigger.
  - A previous build had broken JSON queries for RecordBatches.
  - There was an issue with the distinct cache that caused panics.

### Enterprise
#### Features
- **Cluster management**
  - Nodes are now associated with _clusters_, simplifying compaction, read replication, and rocessing.
  - Node specs are now available for simpler management of cache creations. 
- **Mode types**
  - Ingest, query, compaction, and processing engine can now all be set individually per node.
