### Search before asking - [x] I searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/paimon-cpp/issues) and found nothing similar. ### Motivation Looking ahead, Paimon C++ will focus on several areas: - Storage and retrieval optimizations for vertical workloads, including efficient MAP storage, richer data types such as VECTOR, and complete index support. - Making newly written data queryable in real time through pluggable real-time writes and memory/disk union reads. - Following up on important capabilities from the broader Paimon community, including changelog production, Format Table, and extensions to Data Evolution. ### Solution #### 1. Storage and retrieval optimizations for vertical workloads - [ ] Support shared-shredding columnar storage for `MAP<STRING, T>` based on [PIP-43](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/spaces/PAIMON/pages/430408347/PIP-43+Columnar+Storage+Optimization+for+MAP+Type+in+Paimon), including adaptive physical columns, field mappings, overflow storage, and end-to-end reads and writes. - [ ] Support richer data types, starting with `VECTOR<T, N>` based on [PIP-40](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/spaces/PAIMON/pages/399279132/PIP-40+Introduce+a+new+Vector+data+type), including schema representation, storage, reads, writes, and Data Evolution. - [ ] Complete File Index support by adding index generation to the existing read path. - [ ] Continue improving storage layout, predicate pushdown, column pruning, point lookups, and index-assisted retrieval for workload-specific scenarios. #### 2. Making real-time data queryable - [ ] Support pluggable real-time writes and memory/disk union reads based on [PIP-46](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/spaces/PAIMON/pages/444334302/PIP-46+Support+pluggable+real-time+writes+and+memory+disk+union+reads+for+Paimon+C), tracked by [#158](https://github.com/apache/paimon-cpp/issues/158). - [ ] Make data held by an active writer queryable before it is committed into a snapshot. - [ ] Guarantee consistent query results without missing or duplicate rows while writing, committing, and reclaiming memory segments concurrently. - [ ] Support append tables first, followed by primary-key tables, deletion-vector mode, and additional production scenarios. #### 3. Following up on Paimon community capabilities - [ ] Support changelog production, including `input`, `lookup`, and `full-compaction` modes, tracked by [#174](https://github.com/apache/paimon-cpp/issues/174). - [ ] Support Format Table reads and writes for Hive-style file directories, tracked by [#170](https://github.com/apache/paimon-cpp/issues/170). - [ ] Extend Data Evolution to work with deletion vectors, tracked by [#169](https://github.com/apache/paimon-cpp/issues/169). - [ ] Extend Data Evolution to primary-key tables and support compaction across evolved field groups. - [ ] Continue following relevant Paimon features and make them available through native Paimon C++ APIs where appropriate. Each roadmap item should be delivered through focused issues and reviewable pull requests, with unit tests, integration tests, documentation, and compatibility validation where applicable. ### Anything else? _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit a PR? - [x] I'm willing to submit a PR! -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
