Changelogs for 4.8.x
====================
+.. changelog::
+ :version: 4.8.0-beta1
+ :released: 3rd of May 2023
+
+ This is release 4.8.0-beta1 of the Authoritative Server.
+
+ In 4.8, the LMDB backend gains a new Lightning Stream-compatible schema, which requires a data migration (this is automatic, and there is no migration back to the old schema).
+ LMDB backend users should pay extra attention to the :doc:`Upgrade Notes <../upgrading>`.
+
+ `Lightning Stream <https://doc.powerdns.com/lightningstream>`_ is an `open source <https://github.com/PowerDNS/lightningstream>`_ data syncer that allows multiple nodes to sync LMDB (Lightning Memory-Mapped Database) data to and from an S3 (compatible) bucket. This has particular advantages in distributed and/or large-scale applications (i.e. ~1 million records), making DNS replication much, much easier to manage.
+
+ We are excited about how Lightning Stream simplifies running multiple distributed PowerDNS Authoritative servers, with full support for keeping record data and DNSSEC keys in sync, from multiple writers.
+
+ 4.8.0-beta1 adds logic to deal with domains existing twice in the database when two Lightning Stream nodes manage to add it at the same time. It also contains a few other fixes, please see the list below.
