1. Read your writes: opt-in replica routing via Sentinel
   Jun 24, 2026Part 8 of 8

   Routing read-only queries to replicas is a correctness decision, not just a throughput knob. Here's why we made it opt-in, per-client and per-query.

2. Production-grade: retries, tracing spans, metrics, and error hints
   Jun 21, 2026Part 7 of 8

   Opt-in retries that never duplicate a write, OpenTelemetry-aligned tracing with a privacy-safe query fingerprint, bounded metrics, and errors that tell you how to fix them.

3. Typed mapping with serde, and temporal values that do real math
   Jun 18, 2026Part 6 of 8

   Deserialize rows straight into your own structs with serde, and decode FalkorDB date/time/duration values into types with a checked, type-safe algebra.

4. Batteries included: an embedded FalkorDB you can cargo run
   Jun 15, 2026Part 5 of 8

   Spin up a real FalkorDB from your Rust process — auto-provisioned module, cached or downloaded, or embedded at build time for fully offline runtime.

5. Async all the way down: streaming results and connection multiplexing
   Jun 12, 2026Part 4 of 8

   Result sets that are Streams you compose with the futures toolbox, and a multiplexed connection strategy — with a real pooled-vs-multiplexed benchmark.

6. Rows that don't lie: header-aware, fallible result iteration
   Jun 9, 2026Part 3 of 8

   A result API where every row is a FalkorResult<Row>, columns are read by name, and a value that fails to parse is an Err you can handle — not a panic.

7. Stop hand-quoting Cypher: type-safe, injection-proof parameters
   Jun 6, 2026Part 2 of 8

   Bound query parameters that take real Rust values, encode them correctly, and make Cypher injection a compile-time non-event.

8. Why I keep betting on Rust for a graph database client
   Jun 2, 2026Part 1 of 8

   Kicking off a dev log about the FalkorDB Rust client — the vision, the Rust bet, and a promise: every snippet on this blog compiles in CI.
