+
+This section contains documentation related to Apache Polaris releases.
+
+If you're new to releasing Apache Polaris, we recommend reading the manual
release guide first to understand the process. Do not perform any actions
described in the manual guide, as the semi-automated guide will handle them for
you. Simply read through the manual guide to understand the process.
+
+Once you are familiar with the manual release process, use the semi-automated
guide to cut the release.
+
+If you want to verify a release, head to the release verification guide.
+
+## Available Release Guides
+
+### Semi-Automated Release Guide
+The [semi-automated release guide](semi-automated-release-guide/) describes
how GitHub workflows are used to perform a release with little manual
intervention. This guide automates many of the manual steps while maintaining
the necessary oversight and validation required for Apache releases. It is the
preferred approach for cutting Apache Polaris releases.
+
+### Manual Release Guide (deprecated)
+The [manual release guide](manual-release-guide/) walks through each step of
creating an Apache Polaris release. This guide provides detailed instructions
for every aspect of the release process but requires significant manual
intervention. It is deprecated in favor of the semi-automated approach above,
but is maintained for reference and fallback scenarios.
+
+### Release Verification Guide
+The [release verification guide](release-verification-guide/) provides
instructions for verifying an Apache Polaris release, like verifying checksums
and signatures, ensuring release artifacts integrity, ...

+
+**Audience**: Release Managers
+
+## Overview
+The steps performed in the [Manual Release Guide](../manual-release-guide/)
have been automated to a large extent. This semi-automated release guide
outlines the workflows that can be used to perform a release with little manual
intervention.
+
+## Dry-run mode
+Each of the Github Workflows that have been developed comes with a `dry-run`
mode. It is enabled ticking the `Dry run mode` checkbox before starting the
workflow. When enabled, the workflow will not perform any destructive action
(e.g. tag creation, branch deletion, etc.) but instead print out the commands
that would have been executed.
+
+Dry-run mode is enabled by default. So ensure that you uncheck the `Dry run
mode` checkbox before starting the workflow.
+
+## Prerequisites
+### Announce the intent to cut a release
+Polaris follows a schedule-driven release model. The first thing to do is to
send an e-mail to the [email protected] mailing list to announce the
intent to cut a release, approximately a week before the scheduled release
date. The e-mail should include the following information:
+* The version number of the release (e.g. 1.4.0)
+* The tentative date of the release (e.g. 2026-01-19)
+
+Note that the tentative date is only a suggestion. The actual date of the
release will be determined by taking community feedback into account. For
instance, if specific pull requests are about to be merged, the release may be
delayed by a couple of days to include them.
+
+```
+[DISCUSS] Apache Polaris x.y.z
+```
+
+```
+Hello everyone,
+
+The purpose of this e-mail is to collect feedback on the upcoming Apache
+Polaris x.y.z release. The tentative release date is YYYY-MM-DD. Please let
+me know if you have any concerns or comments, or if there are some specific
+pull requests that you would like to see included in the release.
+
+Thanks,
+```
+
+### Ensure that the changelog is up to date
+As part of Polaris development process, for each major change in the codebase,
a new entry should be added to the `CHANGELOG.md` file. This is usually
verified during pull request reviews. But some changes may have been missed. So
before cutting a release, it is important to ensure that the changelog is up to
date.
+
+## Release branch creation workflow
+The first Github workflow to run is [`Release - 1 - Create Release
Branch`](https://github.com/apache/polaris/actions/workflows/release-1-create-release-branch.yml).
This workflow will create a release branch from the main branch. The release
branch is named after the release number and does not include the patch
version. For instance, the release branch for version 1.3.0 is named
`release/1.3.x`. It should **only be executed only once** per `major.minor`
version.
+
+
+
+
+Once the workflow has run, the run details page contains a recap of the main
information, including whether dry-run mode was enabled, the release branch
name and the Git SHA of the commit that was used to create the release branch.
+
+
+
+## RC0 only - Changelog and version update workflow
+The second Github workflow to run is [`Release - 2 - Update version and
Changelog for Release
Candidate`](https://github.com/apache/polaris/actions/workflows/release-2-update-release-candidate.yml).
This workflow will:
+* Verify that all Github checks are green for the release branch.
+* Increase the patch version number by 1 if the workflow has already been run
for that `major.minor` version.
+* Update the project version files with the final version number
+* Commit the changes to the release branch
+* Create the `major.minor.patch-rc0` tag
+
+This workflow can only be run from a `release/x.y.z` branch. Selecting any
other branch in the Github Actions UI will result in a failure.
+
+Note that the tag that is created is for RC0. This workflow should **only be
executed only once** per `major.minor.patch` version.
+
+
+
+Like for the other workflow runs, the run details page contains a recap of the
main information, with all the steps that were executed.
+
+
+
+## RC≥1 only - Update release branch and create tag
+If the first release candidate is rejected, additional code changes may be
needed. These steps have not been automated yet.
+
+Each code change that should be added to the release branch must be
cherry-picked from the main branch and proposed in a dedicated pull request.
The pull request must be reviewed and approved before being merged. This step
is mandatory so that Github runs the CI checks. The subsequent workflows will
verify that those checks passed.
+
+Once the pull requests have been merged, create a new
`apache-polaris-[major].[minor].[patch]-incubating-rc[N]` tag. The commands
below assume that the `apache/polaris` Git repository corresponds to the
`apache` remote.
+
+```bash
+# Ensure you're on the correct release branch and have the latest changes
+git fetch apache
+git checkout release/[major].[minor].x
+git pull apache release/[major].[minor].x
+
+# Create and push the release candidate tag
+git tag -a apache-polaris-[major].[minor].[patch]-incubating-rc[N] -m "Apache
Polaris [major].[minor].[patch] (incubating) release candidate [N]"
+git push apache apache-polaris-[major].[minor].[patch]-incubating-rc[N]
+```
+
+## Build and publish release artifacts
+The third Github workflow to run is [`Release - 3 - Build and publish release
artifacts`](https://github.com/apache/polaris/actions/workflows/release-3-build-and-publish-artifacts.yml).
This workflow will:
+* Build the source and binary artifacts
+* Stage artifacts to the Apache dist dev repository
+* Publish the source and binary artifacts to the Apache Nexus repository
+* Close the Apache Nexus repository
+* Build Docker images for the server and the admin tool
+* Build the Helm chart
+* Create signature and checksum for all package files
+* Copy package files to Apache dist dev repository
+
+This workflow can only be run from a `release/x.y.z` branch. Selecting any
other branch in the Github Actions UI will result in a failure.
+
+
+
+## Start the vote thread
+
+The last step for a release candidate is to create a VOTE thread on the dev
mailing list.
+
+Recommended title subject:
+
+```
+[VOTE] Release Apache Polaris x.y.z (rci)
+```
+
+Recommended content:
+
+```
+Hi everyone,
+

+
+## Publish the release
+The final workflow to run is [`Release - 4 - Publish Release After Vote
Success`](https://github.com/apache/polaris/actions/workflows/release-4-publish-release.yml).
This workflow will:
+* Copy artifacts from the dist dev to the dist release SVN repository
+* Update the Helm index in dist release repository accordingly
+* Create a final release tag
+* Rebuild and publish Docker images to Docker Hub
+* Create a Github release with the release artifacts
+* Release the candidate repository on Apache Nexus
+
+This workflow can only be run from the `release/x.y.z` branch for which a vote
has passed. It also requires the Nexus staging repository id
(`orgapachepolaris-<ID>`) that was created by the previous workflow.
+
+
+
+## Publish docs
+These steps have not been automated yet.
+
+1. Open a PR against branch
[`versioned-docs`](https://github.com/apache/polaris/tree/versioned-docs) to
publish the documentation
+2. Open a PR against the `main` branch to update website
+ - Add download links and release notes in [Download
page](https://github.com/apache/polaris/blob/main/site/content/downloads/_index.md)
+ - Add the release in the [website
