RocheDB v0.5.1

RocheDB v0.5.1 is a documentation-focused patch release for the v0.5.x
technical preview.

Release:

https://github.com/puffball1567/rochedb/releases/tag/v0.5.1

Main Changes

  • Added docs/technical-faq.md.
  • Linked the Technical FAQ from README.md.
  • Linked the Technical FAQ from the documentation index.

Why This Patch Exists

RocheDB has enough unusual terminology that first-time reviewers need a direct
technical entry point. The new FAQ answers the questions most likely to come
from database engineers:

  • Is a ring just partitioning?
  • Is stellar locality a join?
  • Is this a secondary index?
  • Is the orbital model just consistent hashing?
  • Where do the benchmark improvements come from?
  • How are records grouped on disk?
  • What happens when write patterns are messy?
  • Is RocheDB production-ready?

The answers are intentionally conservative. They explain RocheDB's current
strengths, but also document boundaries around production readiness, dynamic
membership, broad secondary-index planning, and real-workload validation.

Verification

This release contains documentation and package metadata changes only.

Verified with:

  • git diff --check
  • GitHub Actions on the documentation PR into devel

Known Boundaries

The v0.5.0 implementation boundaries remain unchanged:

  • dynamic cluster membership with minimal remapping is still planned;
  • longer mixed-version protocol compatibility is still planned;
  • deeper failure-injection tests are still planned;
  • broader driver parity is still in progress.
