Architecture of key management in YugabyteDB

I’m looking for information on how key management is implemented in YB (meaning YugabyteDB itself). In general, and in particular when using block-level encryption at rest, how are the keys stored? What happens when the Database is being stopped and then restarted? Do the keys have to be provided by an admin on restart? And if not, how does YB make sure the keys are securely stored (without e.g. some sort of master key)?

Performance of incrementing counters in YugabyteDB YSQL

I have 1,000 components each has a separate table row that it update every 10 seconds.
I currently use redis with HSET and HGET.
Is it reasonable to use ysql for this?
Will frequent updates create bloat?
Is automatic full compaction enabled on stable and will take care of that?

Where to put extensions in YugabyteDB?

I’m just starting testing yugabyte using the yugabyted script. Trying to see if it can replace our current postgresql implementation. The server is running RHEL 8 Linux. I’m getting an error when trying to load a custom function. Any advice would be appreciated.
