[ANNOUNCE] Apache Calcite 1.12.0 released

2017-03-24 Thread Julian Hyde 
The Apache Calcite team is pleased to announce the release of
Apache Calcite 1.12.0.

Calcite is a dynamic data management framework. Its cost-based
optimizer converts queries, represented in relational algebra, into
executable plans. Calcite supports many front-end languages and
back-end data engines, and includes an SQL parser and the Avatica
JDBC driver.

In 2 1/2 months since 1.11, 29 contributors have resolved 95
issues. We now have JDK9 support, new file/web and Pig adapters,
syntax extensions for streaming queries, and planning improvements
for Druid and sub-queries.

You can start using it in Maven by simply updating your dependency
to:

  
org.apache.calcite
calcite-core
1.12.0

*Disclaimer*

Apache Edgent is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software
Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the name of Apache Incubator PMC. Incubation
is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates
that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have
stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While
incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or
stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be
fully endorsed by the ASF.
