Enforce your team's database standards automatically with Custom Policy Checks in Redgate Flyway Enterprise
Every engineering team has a list of “things we don’t do”. No TRUNCATE TABLE in production. Every audit table must end in _audit. Foreign keys follow a naming convention. But until now, enforcing those standards has meant relying on pull request checklists, tribal knowledge, or a separate linting tool bolted onto the pipeline.

Tempo 3.0 release: a new architecture for scale and lower TCO, TraceQL metrics GA, and more
Tempo started with a simple goal: make distributed tracing easier to run at scale. As tracing adoption has grown, however, so have the challenges, including higher data volumes, more complex architectures, and increasing demand for real-time insights directly from traces. Over the last year, we’ve been evolving Tempo’s architecture to meet that moment. And today, we’re sharing the results of those efforts with the release of Tempo 3.0.
What's New in Tempo 3.0
Tempo 3.0 introduces a major architectural shift that decouples the read and write paths, with Kafka handling durability on the write side and a new live store serving recent traces on the read side. Blocks are now written at a replication factor of one instead of three, significantly reducing storage overhead. This release also brings TraceQL metrics to general availability, adds comparison operators for filtering metric results at query time, and introduces a new Tempo CLI redact command for removing sensitive trace data on demand without waiting for retention to expire.
