Genesis DB 1.1.0 - The Future
With version 1.0.x, we proved that Genesis DB has shown it's ready for production. Based on feedback and many positive responses, 1.1.0 will be an important step into the future.

New Interfaces

Currently in development: gRPC Endpoint Support. In addition to the classic HTTP interface, Genesis DB opens the way for higher performance, typed connections.

Additionally, a built-in MCP Server is being developed. This extends the event concept and enables new integration possibilities that previously required significantly more effort.

gRPC Support

High-performance, type-safe communication protocol that offers superior performance and stronger contracts compared to traditional HTTP APIs.

Built-in MCP Server

Enhanced event concept with new integration possibilities, reducing the complexity of connecting external systems and services.

Community Edition (CE)

A thought that won't leave me alone: In some regions of this world, € 19.90 per month is already a significant barrier. At the same time, there are so many great indie developers who find event sourcing fascinating - just like me.

With version 1.1.0, I'm therefore planning a Genesis DB Community Edition:

  • Free and unlimited usage: No restrictions on the number of events or databases
  • Reduced feature set: Core functionality with selected enterprise features
  • Full-featured, modern event store: Complete event sourcing capabilities for most use cases

Making Event Sourcing Accessible

The Community Edition represents our commitment to making event sourcing technology available to developers worldwide, regardless of their economic situation or project budget.

Community Collaboration

Join a growing community of developers passionate about event sourcing and help shape the future of Genesis DB CE.

More on that in an upcoming post.

Want to Participate?

The CE should not just be a product, but a platform for everyone who is passionate about event sourcing. I'm therefore looking for indie developers who want to contribute - whether through feedback, ideas, or direct contributions. Get in touch if you're interested!

Details will follow soon. Anyone already interested: feel free to contact me directly.

And last but not least:

finally, a proper changelog with detailed descriptions for every release.

Looking Ahead

Version 1.1.0 marks an exciting phase in Genesis DB's evolution. With the production stability from 1.0.x, we're now focused on expanding accessibility and performance, ensuring that event sourcing becomes a viable option for developers at every level.

The future of event sourcing is collaborative and more exciting than ever.
