immudb vs SurveyJS: at a glance
What is immudb?
immudb made itself speak Postgres — while its announced v2 rearchitecture sits unfinished.
immudb is a tamper-evident database that recently taught itself the PostgreSQL wire protocol in earnest: pg_catalog and information_schema resolvers, PostgreSQL compatibility functions, SHOW emulation, and subquery support, enough for Django, SQLAlchemy, GORM, and ActiveRecord to introspect it. Its own verification primitives — state, row and transaction proofs, history — are now callable as SQL functions over that same wire. The follow-on 1.11.1 release adds opt-in value-level audit verification and index-only COUNT(*).
What is SurveyJS?
SurveyJS keeps a notes-free v1 line alive while v3 grinds through theming in beta.
SurveyJS is maintaining two branches in parallel. The v1.12.x line ships tagged releases with no published notes — the feed carries only the version string and a CI skip marker — while v3.0.0 moves through numbered betas whose changelogs are raw PR lists dominated by theming, layout, and CSS variable work. Nothing in the recent window adds a question type or changes the library's public surface.

immudb made itself speak Postgres — while its announced v2 rearchitecture sits unfinished.
◆ Current state
immudb is a tamper-evident database that recently taught itself the PostgreSQL wire protocol in earnest: pg_catalog and information_schema resolvers, PostgreSQL compatibility functions, SHOW emulation, and subquery support, enough for Django, SQLAlchemy, GORM, and ActiveRecord to introspect it. Its own verification primitives — state, row and transaction proofs, history — are now callable as SQL functions over that same wire. The follow-on 1.11.1 release adds opt-in value-level audit verification and index-only COUNT(*).
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is unmistakable: stop asking developers to adopt a bespoke API and instead present as Postgres with integrity guarantees attached. Every recent addition either removes an adoption barrier (ORM introspection, compatibility functions) or makes the integrity story operationally usable (structured audit logging, SHA-256 value re-verification during audit cycles). Sitting against that is a v2.0.0 release candidate announcing a page-based indexing redesign and multi-ledger storage that has not reached GA while the 1.11 line kept shipping — the rearchitecture is announced, not delivered.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued PostgreSQL surface-filling on the 1.11 line, since each compatibility gap is the concrete thing blocking an ORM. What the entries do not support is a confident call on v2: the RC has been outpaced by 1.11 releases, and nothing in the changelogs indicates whether it is being finished or quietly shelved.
SurveyJS
5.0DEVOPS
SurveyJS keeps a notes-free v1 line alive while v3 grinds through theming in beta.
◆ Current state
SurveyJS is maintaining two branches in parallel. The v1.12.x line ships tagged releases with no published notes — the feed carries only the version string and a CI skip marker — while v3.0.0 moves through numbered betas whose changelogs are raw PR lists dominated by theming, layout, and CSS variable work. Nothing in the recent window adds a question type or changes the library's public surface.
◆ Where it's heading
v3 reads as a design-system rewrite rather than a feature release: SCSS variable refactors, theme tokens for dropdown menus and component radii, and repeated theme update passes recurring across consecutive betas. The v1 line is in pure upkeep, tagged every one to two weeks with nothing documented. The branches are not converging yet — v3 betas still carry Merge/v2 commits pulling stable-branch fixes forward.
◆ Prediction
The beta numbering and continued styling churn suggest a stable v3.0.0 is not close; the betas would have to shift from CSS refactors to migration and API notes first. What these entries do not show is whether the v1 line gets a documented final release or simply stops being tagged.
