BREAKING CHANGE: System metadata location changed from 'index/' to '_system/' directory
- Rename INDEX_DIR to SYSTEM_DIR following database conventions
- Implement dual-read/write strategy for zero-downtime migration
- Add automatic migration from old to new location on first access
- Support mixed service versions sharing S3/cloud storage
- Add 30-day grace period for gradual rollout (configurable)
- Store distributed config alongside statistics in _system folder
- Add comprehensive migration guide and documentation
Migration features:
- Read from both locations (new first, fallback to old)
- Write to both during migration period
- Automatic data migration when found only in old location
- Services can update independently without coordination
- Full backward compatibility for production deployments
The change improves clarity ('_system' better represents system metadata than 'index')
and follows standard database conventions (MongoDB's _system, PostgreSQL's pg_*).
- Fix deprecated getAllNodes() warnings by using getNodesWithPagination() in S3 adapter
- Add getNounsWithPagination() method to S3CompatibleStorage for proper pagination support
- Create optimizedS3Search module for efficient pagination and filtering
- Update baseStorage to properly detect pagination support in adapters
- Add comprehensive documentation for performance and logging fixes
- Ensure backward compatibility with existing code
This resolves the following warnings in dependent projects:
- "getAllNodes() is deprecated and will be removed in a future version"
- "Storage adapter does not support pagination, falling back to loading all nouns"
- "Only returning the first 1000 nodes. There are more nodes available"
- Add missing 'level' property to HNSWNoun objects in storage adapters
- Fix HNSWVerb type compatibility in CacheManager imports
- Clear statistics cache when clearing storage to prevent stale data
- Update test expectations to match actual HNSW index behavior (includes both nouns and verbs)
- Add StatisticsCollector utility for enhanced metrics tracking
- Improve statistics comparison in tests to handle volatile fields
- Implement saveVerbMetadata and getVerbMetadata methods for managing verb metadata.
- Implement saveNounMetadata and getNounMetadata methods for managing noun metadata.
- Update storage adapters to use HNSWVerb instead of GraphVerb for improved performance.
- Deprecate methods that require loading metadata for edges, returning empty arrays instead.
- Added a new `CacheManager` class in `cacheManager.ts` to support three-level caching strategy:
- **Level 1**: Hot cache in RAM for most accessed nodes.
- **Level 2**: Warm cache using OPFS, Filesystem, or S3, depending on the environment.
- **Level 3**: Cold storage for longer-term data storage.
- Integrated features for dynamic tuning:
- Auto-detection of environment (Browser, Node.js, Worker) and memory availability.
- Parameter tuning for cache size, eviction thresholds, and TTL based on usage patterns.
- Enhanced support for:
- LRU-based eviction in hot cache.
- Batch-based operations with configurable batch sizes.
- Comprehensive logging and debug outputs for cache operations.
- Ensured robust fallback handling to manage storage in constrained environments.
- Improved extensibility for storage adapters (warm and cold storage detection and initialization).
**Purpose**: Optimize data access and storage across multiple environments with seamless scalability and dynamic parameter adjustments.
- Updated error handling in `S3CompatibleStorage` to include checks for `NotFound` errors alongside `NoSuchKey` during lock operations.
- Ensured robustness in determining lock existence and managing exceptions related to missing keys.
**Purpose**: Improve resilience of the S3-compatible storage adapter by addressing additional error scenarios, ensuring accurate lock detection and stable operation.
- Added `BrainyError` class to classify and handle errors with types like `TIMEOUT`, `NETWORK`, `STORAGE`, `NOT_FOUND`, and `RETRY_EXHAUSTED`. Includes static helper methods for error creation and retry determination.
- Introduced `operationUtils` with utility functions for timeout, retry logic, and exponential backoff. Implements features like `withTimeout`, `withRetry`, and a combined `withTimeoutAndRetry`.
- Updated `S3CompatibleStorage` to leverage new operation utilities for timeout and retry handling, including `StorageOperationExecutors` for clean operation execution.
- Enhanced `storageFactory` to pass `OperationConfig` for configurable timeout and retry behavior.
- Extended `BrainyData` to include timeout and retry policy configuration at initialization.
**Purpose**: Improve storage reliability by introducing configurable and reusable error-handling and operation utilities, reducing code duplication and enhancing maintainability.
- Introduced `CONCURRENCY_ANALYSIS.md` to outline identified concurrency issues, including statistics handling, index synchronization, and storage contention.
- Added `CONCURRENCY_IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md` to summarize concurrency improvements, such as distributed locking and change log mechanisms.
- Created `STORAGE_CONCURRENCY_ANALYSIS.md` to evaluate concurrency risks and applied solutions for different storage adapters (`S3CompatibleStorage`, `FileSystemStorage`, `OPFSStorage`, and `MemoryStorage`).
- Updated codebase with changes related to concurrency, including distributed locking, atomic updates, event-driven synchronization, and change log support.
- Refactored tests to verify behavior of new concurrency mechanisms, including robust error handling and cleanup functions.
**Purpose**: Provides comprehensive documentation and implementation details to ensure robust concurrency handling in multi-instance, high-throughput environments.
- **Core**: Improved verb creation logic by adding `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `createdBy` attributes. These fields include timestamped metadata (`seconds`, `nanoseconds`) and source augmentation/service information for better tracking.
- **Storage**: Refactored `BaseStorage` methods to utilize internal variants (e.g., `saveVerb_internal`, `getNoun_internal`). Added support for new verb attributes while maintaining backward compatibility with existing data structures.
- **Tests**:
- Updated `s3-storage.test.ts` and `opfs-storage.test.ts` to validate changes in verb attributes such as timestamps and augmentation metadata.
- Added assertions for `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `createdBy` fields in test cases.
- **Cleanup**: Replaced ambiguous type aliases like `Edge` and `HNSWNode` with clearer equivalents (`Verb` and `HNSWNoun_internal`) for consistency across storage adapters.
**Purpose**: Enhance metadata tracking and standardize attribute handling across storage and core modules to ensure accurate and consistent data throughout the system.
- **Tests**: Added new `statistics-storage.test.ts` to validate statistics storage functionality across scenarios including saving, retrieving, time-based partitioning, and backward compatibility. Ensured tests dynamically handle missing environment variables by skipping S3-related tests when credentials are unavailable.
- **Docs**: Enhanced `statistics.md` with detailed explanations of scalability improvements, including adaptive flush timing, batched updates, and time-based partitioning. Improved readability and structure.
- **Storage**: Updated all storage adapters to integrate time-based partitioning and maintain backward compatibility with legacy statistics storage formats.
- **Dependencies**: Added `dotenv` to support environmental variable management for storage adapter tests.
**Purpose**: Strengthen system reliability by adding comprehensive test coverage for statistics storage, improve scalability documentation, and ensure consistency across storage adapters with robust implementations.
