	1	Redis TODO and Roadmap
	2
	3	VERSION 1.2 TODO (Zsets, Integer encoding, Append only journal)
	4	===============================================================
	5
	6	Most of the features already implemented for this release. The following is a list of the missing things in order to release the first beta tar.gz:
	7
	8	* Document "masterauth" in redis.conf, also merge the other related patch if it seems a safe one.
	9	* SETNX and MSETNX should use lookupKeWrite() in order to expire volatile keys when a write attempt is made.
	10
	11	VERSION 1.4 TODO (Hash type)
	12	============================
	13
	14	* Hashes (HSET, HGET, HEXISTS, HLEN, ...).
	15	* Specially encoded memory-saving integer sets.
	16	* An utility able to export an .rdb file into a text-only JSON dump, we can't live anymore without such a tool. Probably an extension to redis-cli.
	17	* List ops like L/RPUSH L/RPOP should return the new list length.
	18
	19	VERSION 1.6 TODO (Virtual memory)
	20	=================================
	21
	22	* Redis Virtual Memory for datasets bigger than RAM (http://groups.google.com/group/redis-db/msg/752997c7b38553cd)
	23
	24	VERSION 1.8 TODO (Fault tollerant sharding)
	25	===========================================
	26
	27	* Redis-cluster, a fast intermediate layer (proxy) that implements consistent hashing and fault tollerant nodes handling.
	28
	29	Interesting readings about this:
	30
	31	- http://ayende.com/Blog/archive/2009/04/06/designing-rhino-dht-a-fault-tolerant-dynamically-distributed-hash.aspx
	32
	33	VERSION 2.0 TODO (Optimizations and latency)
	34	============================================
	35
	36	* Lower the CPU usage.
	37	* Lower the RAM usage everywhere possible.
	38	* Use epool and alike to rewrite ae.c for Linux and other platforms suppporting fater-than-select() mutiplexing APIs.
	39	* Implement an UDP interface for low-latency GET/SET operations.
	40
	41	VERSION 2.2 TODO (Optimizations and latency)
	42	============================================
	43
	44	* JSON command able to access data serialized in JSON format. For instance if I've a key foobar with a json object I can alter the "name" file using somthing like: "JSON SET foobar name Kevin". We should have GET and INCRBY as well.
	45
	46	SHORT/LONG TERM RANDOM TODO ITEMS
	47	=================================
	48
	49	Most of this can be seen just as proposals, the fact they are in this list
	50	it's not a guarantee they'll ever get implemented ;)
	51
	52	* Move dict.c from hash table to skip list, in order to avoid the blocking resize operation needed for the hash table.
	53	* FORK command (fork()s executing the commands received by the current
	54	client in the new process). Hint: large SORTs can use more cores,
	55	copy-on-write will avoid memory problems.
	56	* DUP command? DUP srckey dstkey, creates an exact clone of srckey value in dstkey.
	57	* SORT: Don't copy the list into a vector when BY argument is constant.
	58	* Write the hash table size of every db in the dump, so that Redis can resize the hash table just one time when loading a big DB.
	59	* LOCK / TRYLOCK / UNLOCK as described many times in the google group
	60	* Replication automated tests
	61	* Byte Array type (BA prefixed commands): BASETBIT BAGETBIT BASETU8 U16 U32 U64 S8 S16 S32 S64, ability to atomically INCRBY all the base types. BARANGE to get a range of bytes as a bulk value, BASETRANGE to set a range of bytes.
	62	* zmalloc() should avoid to add a private header for archs where there is some other kind of libc-specific way to get the size of a malloced block. Already done for Mac OS X.
	63	* Read-only mode.
	64	* Pattern-matching replication.
	65
	66	DOCUMENTATION WISHLIST
	67	======================
	68
	69	* Page explaining tips to reduce memory usage.
	70	* A Sorted sets HOWTO
