Metrics Engine
A new engine designed for observability scenarios. Its primary aim is to handle a large number of small tables, making it particularly suitable for using Prometheus metrics. By utilizing synthetic wide tables, this new Engine offers the capability to store metric data and reuse metadata, rendering "tables" atop it more lightweight and overcoming some of the limitations of the existing Mito engine, which is considered too heavy for such tasks.
Inverted Index
DataFlow (GreptimeFlow)
A lightweight stream computing component capable of performing continuous aggregation on GreptimeDB data streams. It can be embedded into the GreptimeDB Frontend or deployed as a separate service within the GreptimeDB cluster.
Here is a flow job can be submitted in the form of SQL:
CREATE TASK avg_over_5m WINDOW_SIZE = "5m" AS SELECT avg(value) FROM table WHERE time > now() - 5m GROUP BY time(1m);Smart Index
For instance, it automatically monitors workloads and query performance, and when necessary, it autonomously creates relevant indexes and removes unused ones.
Region Migration
It allows migrating regions between Datanodes, facilitating the relocation of hot data and the horizontal scaling of load balancing.
Auto Rebalance Regions
An automated load balancing scheduler built upon region migration.
Logs Engine
A storage engine designed specifically for the characteristics of log data, sharing most of GreptimeDB's architecture and capabilities, such as the SQL query layer, data sharding, distributed routing, querying indexing, and compression ability. This enables GreptimeDB to become a unified system offering optimized storage and a consistent access experience for Metrics and Logs data based on a multi-engine architecture.
@fengjiachun I remember that "Region Migration" is under development, do we have some issues to linked here?

I added RFC and tracking issue link.
@fengjiachun Cool! So it even has been implemented and would be delivered at 0.7?
@tisonkun Yes
