What's next
Active roadmap
No promised dates - just an honest read on what's actively being built, what's decided, and what's still just an idea.
Direct file-based backup and restore for engines that support file-level snapshots, with linked/incremental backups to reduce storage usage.
Exponential backoff retry logic for transient errors, plus a dead letter queue for jobs that fail repeatedly and need investigation.
