About Deep Lake
Deep Lake is rebuilding itself as a Postgres extension.
The visible release history is thin — three entries spanning a version 3 patch and two version 4 releases. The 4.x work splits between the core dataset format and pg_deeplake, a Postgres extension that has been gaining SQL type support, automatic table reload and library preloading. The 4.4.1 release added a storage directory listing API, mesh type support, PLY visualisation, a simple visualiser, and a 30% improvement in LRU cache insertion time.
