Questions And Answers

How can I redesign feature fields without invalidating everything downstream?

Do your redesign and use metadata rebases.

How can I select a subset of a feature for recomputation?

Invoke MetadataStore.resolve_update with an appropriate condition passed to staleness_predicates.

Why are feature definitions created via classes?

In short: it's handy for some integrations, and allows to have more type annotation goodness, but isn't strictly necessary.

Note

Other interfaces will be explored in the future — see anam-org/metaxy#800.

Do you support PostgreSQL?

Kinda.

Warning

PostgreSQL is a really bad choice for a metadata store backend.

What does the logo mean?

It's an accident. The intent was for it to resemble a galaxy, but it is what it is.
