Upcoming¶

Learn about upcoming Xonai solution updates.

Unified Memory Architecture¶

Xonai plans to entirely remove the need to configure plugin memory by fundamentally unifying Xonai and Spark memory manager.

Nested Data Type Support¶

Xonai plans to add full support for nested data types to unlock compatibility and acceleration of applications where the use of such types is abundant.

Visit the official documentation for more information about Spark data types.

Decimal Type Support¶

Xonai plans to add 64-bit and 128-bit decimal data type support, which is commonly used to perform arithmetic with currency values.

Our implementation is expected to be highly efficient, as it will leverage our custom compiler to directly generate machine code to perform most decimal arithmetic.

Spark Test Suite Compatibility¶

Xonai plans to make it possible for customers to verify runtime compatibility and will open-source a version of the Apache Spark core test suite with some minor modifications required to run it with the Xonai Accelerator.
