Current Stable Release

Geode v0.5.12 (May 7, 2026) - Current Stable

This is the current stable release line for the docs site. It includes the current storage and transport release train through the fixes shipped in v0.5.12.

Status: Recommended for production deployments

Key Highlights:

  • 100% GQL compliance (see conformance profile)
  • DSN graph binding and graph-bound session isolation
  • graph-storage engine integration and per-graph storage evolution
  • enterprise security hardening across QUIC, gRPC, MFA, API keys, and TDE
  • QUIC multiplexing and major latency / throughput improvements
  • polyglot client libraries (Go, Python, Rust, Node.js, Zig)

Release History

v0.2.12 - v0.2.15 (March 27-29, 2026)

  • gRPC parity fixes for RLS, auth rate limiting, CDC, and backup lock behavior
  • QUIC stream multiplexing and dedicated poll-thread architecture
  • CTE execution wired into the query engine
  • DOT output fixes and cross-compilation hardening for 32-bit ARM
  • full-suite validation on the March 2026 release train

v0.2.0 - v0.2.11 (March 26-27, 2026)

  • DSN graph binding and HELLO-time graph resolution
  • graph-storage engine integration with adapter bridge
  • TLS/CA certificate auto-detection and local trust-path improvements
  • security hardening for MFA, --graph, KMS token comparisons, metrics binding, and password handling

v0.1.11 - v0.1.39 (February 27-March 25, 2026)

  • auth graph storage, HMAC integrity verification, and offline auth maintenance commands
  • QUIC/TLS handshake, DNS, and shell keepalive fixes
  • per-graph storage isolation and backup/restore changes
  • ORDER BY large-result crash fix
  • DSN graph binding groundwork culminating in v0.1.39

v0.1.3 - Production Ready (January 2026)

  • original production-ready milestone
  • GQL compliance baseline
  • enterprise security, analytics, and operational documentation baseline

What Changed Most Since February 2026

  1. Connection semantics: DSNs can now bind a session to a graph during the HELLO handshake.
  2. Storage internals: Geode moved from monolithic persistence toward per-graph and graph-storage-backed layouts.
  3. Transport behavior: QUIC now includes multiplexing, improved polling, and better retry/handshake behavior.
  4. Security posture: gRPC parity, auth rate limiting, password-handling fixes, and stronger TLS/CA handling all landed in March.

Upgrade Guidance

  • Read the Changelog before any v0.1.x to v0.2.x upgrade.
  • Validate DSN handling if your clients now use graph-bound sessions.
  • Back up before moving across the March 2026 storage release train.
  • If you need the persistence and pager-encryption fixes that landed after v0.5.12, follow main or wait for the next patch tag.
