#2Oooh, making it a standardized postgres extension (rather than its own compiled fork) is suuuuper-compelling. I've toyed with pipelinedb here and there, but the mental overhead of maintaining it separately from postgres is a little heavy. Even if the benefit is largely psychological, I think this is a great move.

I agree. I would love to deploy this to production, but I have hesitated due to the mental gymnastics and concerns you mentioned.

Hello! I'm Derek, one of the PipelineDB co-founders. The way using PipelineDB feels to users has always been a principal consideration to us and how we make design decisions, so a psychological benefit isn't a second-class citizen in our minds. With so many different tools to choose from nowadays, any friction at all (technical or non-technical) can be a showstopper. We've always strived to make PipelineDB as easy to use as possible, and the extension refactor is the grand finale of that continual effort as we approach 1.0.
Thank you for your input, and we hope you you'll find great success with PipelineDB in the future!

When this ships as a PostgreSQL extension, it looks like it could very handily solve a problem for which we're currently pilot-testing logical decoding.
I look forward to trying it, and would happily explore whether beta testing in a large scale environment (half a million concurrent users) is something my management chain and internal customers would be open to.
Thank you for your work!

I think it's not just "mental overhead". The main benefit would be able to use PipelineDB with other Postgresql extensions like CitusDB. It will make Postgresql competitor to many Hadoop oriented architectures.

#10I signed up for stride; but didn't hear back.
I saw reports from others that they'd signed up 6 months ago and not heard anything yet.
Could you provide an update on the status of the project and accepting beta users?
