New Users: SlateDB, An embedded database built on object storage.

[Xuanwo]

SlateDB is an embedded storage engine built as a log-structured merge-tree. Unlike traditional LSM-tree storage engines, SlateDB writes data to object storage (S3, GCS, ABS, MinIO, Tigris, and so on). Leveraging object storage allows SlateDB to provide bottomless storage capacity, high durability, and easy replication. The trade-off is that object storage has a higher latency and higher API cost than local disk.

SlateDB now uses OpenDAL's OSS support through the opendal object_store integration.
