The Spice v0.11-alpha release significantly improves the Databricks data connector with Databricks Connect (Spark Connect) support, adds the DuckDB data connector, and adds the AWS Secrets Manager secret store. In addition, enhanced control over accelerated dataset refreshes, improved SSL security for MySQL and PostgreSQL connections, and overall stability improvements have been added.

Highlights in v0.11-alpha​

DuckDB data connector: Use DuckDB databases or connections as a data source.

AWS Secrets Manager Secret Store: Use AWS Secrets Managers as a secret store.

Custom Refresh SQL: Specify a custom SQL query for dataset refresh using refresh_sql.

Dataset Refresh API: Trigger a dataset refresh using the new CLI command spice refresh or via API.

Expanded SSL support for Postgres: SSL mode now supports disable, require, prefer, verify-ca, verify-full options with the default mode changed to require. Added pg_sslrootcert parameter for setting a custom root certificate and the pg_insecure parameter is no longer supported.

Databricks Connect: Choose between using Spark Connect or Delta Lake when using the Databricks data connector for improved performance.

Improved SSL support for Postgres: ssl mode now supports disable, require, prefer, verify-ca, verify-full options with default mode changed to require. Added pg_sslrootcert parameter to allow setting custom root cert for postgres connector, pg_insecure parameter is no longer supported as redundant.
