Growing SQL queries is a vital a part of the Rockset product expertise. We’re excited to announce the discharge of a brand new question editor within the Rockset Console with improved efficiency and an up to date design.
Upgraded Efficiency
The principle motivation for the brand new question editor expertise was to resolve the efficiency problems with our previous question editor. Whereas it was typically usable, typing within the previous question editor would lag when engaged on massive queries and change into sluggish after lengthy intervals of time. To resolve a few of the issues, we changed the parser used within the question editor and eliminated some pointless rerenders. Finally although, the efficiency most dramatically improved by altering the libraries that again the question editor. The Rockset question editor is constructed on CodeMirror, an open supply code editor library for the online. (Shoutout to the maintainers for creating such an excellent library!) In June 2022, the brand new CodeMirror 6 model was launched. CodeMirror 6 is a from-scratch implementation of CodeMirror primarily based on the learnings of the earlier variations with main extensibility and efficiency enhancements. Upgrading to CodeMirror 6 required a whole rewrite of the Rockset question editor, so we took the chance to make some further design and value enhancements.
