Usually RFC documents are not modified, but the vast mentions of "zenith" in early RFC documents make it desirable to update the product name to today's name, to avoid confusion. ## Problem Early RFC documents use the old "zenith" product name a lot, which is not something everyone is aware of after the product was renamed. ## Summary of changes Replace occurrences of "zenith" with "neon". Images are excluded. --------- Co-authored-by: Andreas Scherbaum <andreas@neon.tech>

Neon CLI allows you to operate database clusters (catalog clusters) and their commit history locally and in the cloud. Since ANSI calls them catalog clusters and cluster is a loaded term in the modern infrastructure we will call it "catalog".
CLI v2 (after chatting with Carl)
Neon introduces the notion of a repository.
neon init
neon clone neon://neon.tech/piedpiper/northwind -- clones a repo to the northwind directory
Once you have a cluster catalog you can explore it
neon log -- returns a list of commits
neon status -- returns if there are changes in the catalog that can be committed
neon commit -- commits the changes and generates a new commit hash
neon branch experimental <hash> -- creates a branch called testdb based on a given commit hash
To make changes in the catalog you need to run compute nodes
-- here is how you a compute node
neon start /home/pipedpiper/northwind:main -- starts a compute instance
neon start neon://neon.tech/northwind:main -- starts a compute instance in the cloud
-- you can start a compute node against any hash or branch
neon start /home/pipedpiper/northwind:experimental --port 8008 -- start another compute instance (on different port)
-- you can start a compute node against any hash or branch
neon start /home/pipedpiper/northwind:<hash> --port 8009 -- start another compute instance (on different port)
-- After running some DML you can run
-- neon status and see how there are two WAL streams one on top of
-- the main branch
neon status
-- and another on top of the experimental branch
neon status -b experimental
-- you can commit each branch separately
neon commit main
-- or
neon commit -c /home/pipedpiper/northwind:experimental
Starting compute instances against cloud environments
-- you can start a compute instance against the cloud environment
-- in this case all of the changes will be streamed into the cloud
neon start https://neon:tecj/pipedpiper/northwind:main
neon start https://neon:tecj/pipedpiper/northwind:main
neon status -c https://neon:tecj/pipedpiper/northwind:main
neon commit -c https://neon:tecj/pipedpiper/northwind:main
neon branch -c https://neon:tecj/pipedpiper/northwind:<hash> experimental
Pushing data into the cloud
-- pull all the commits from the cloud
neon pull
-- push all the commits to the cloud
neon push
