+        <title>Storm 0.10.0 Beta Released</title>
+        <description>&lt;p&gt;Fast on the heals of the 0.9.5 maintenance 
release, the Apache Storm community is pleased to announce that Apache Storm 
0.10.0-beta has been released and is now available on &lt;a 
href=&quot;/downloads.html&quot;&gt;the downloads page&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Aside from many stability and performance improvements, this release 
includes a number of important new features, some of which are highlighted 
below.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;secure,-multi-tenant-deployment&quot;&gt;Secure, Multi-Tenant 
Deployment&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Much like the early days of Hadoop, Apache Storm originally evolved 
in an environment where security was not a high-priority concern. Rather, it 
was assumed that Storm would be deployed to environments suitably cordoned off 
from security threats. While a large number of users were comfortable setting 
up their own security measures for Storm (usually at the Firewall/OS level), 
this proved a hindrance to broader adoption among larger enterprises where 
security policies prohibited deployment without specific safeguards.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Yahoo! hosts one of the largest Storm deployments in the world, and 
their engineering team recognized the need for security early on, so it 
implemented many of the features necessary to secure its own Apache Storm 
deployment. Yahoo!, Hortonworks, Symantec, and the broader Apache Storm 
community have worked together to bring those security innovations into the 
main Apache Storm code base.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;We are pleased to announce that work is now complete. Some of the 
highlights of Storm&amp;#39;s new security features include:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;ul&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Kerberos Authentication with Automatic Credential Push and 
Renewal&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Pluggable Authorization and ACLs&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Multi-Tenant Scheduling with Per-User isolation and configurable 
resource limits.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;User Impersonation&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;SSL Support for Storm UI, Log Viewer, and DRPC (Distributed Remote 
Procedure Call)&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Secure integration with other Hadoop Projects (such as ZooKeeper, 
HDFS, HBase, etc.)&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;User isolation (Storm topologies run as the user who submitted 
them)&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For more details and instructions for securing Storm, please see 
&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/v0.10.0-beta/SECURITY.md&quot;&gt;the
 security documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 
id=&quot;a-foundation-for-rolling-upgrades-and-continuity-of-operations&quot;&gt;A
 Foundation for Rolling Upgrades and Continuity of Operations&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In the past, upgrading a Storm cluster could be an arduous process 
that involved un-deploying existing topologies, removing state from local disk 
and ZooKeeper, installing the upgrade, and finally redeploying topologies. From 
an operations perspective, this process was disruptive to say the very 
least.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The underlying cause of this headache was rooted in the data format 
Storm processes used to store both local and distributed state. Between 
versions, these data structures would change in incompatible ways.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Beginning with version 0.10.0, this limitation has been eliminated. 
In the future, upgrading from Storm 0.10.0 to a newer version can be 
accomplished seamlessly, with zero down time. In fact, for users who use &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://ambari.apache.org&quot;&gt;Apache Ambari&lt;/a&gt; for 
cluster provisioning and management, the process can be completely 
automated.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 
id=&quot;easier-deployment-and-declarative-topology-wiring-with-flux&quot;&gt;Easier
 Deployment and Declarative Topology Wiring with Flux&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Apache Storm 0.10.0 now includes Flux, which is a framework and set 
of utilities that make defining and deploying Storm topologies less painful and 
developer-intensive. A common pain point mentioned by Storm users is the fact 
that the wiring for a Topology graph is often tied up in Java code, and that 
any changes require recompilation and repackaging of the topology jar file. 
Flux aims to alleviate that pain by allowing you to package all your Storm 
components in a single jar, and use an external text file to define the layout 
and configuration of your topologies.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Some of Flux&amp;#39; features include:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;ul&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Easily configure and deploy Storm topologies (Both Storm core and 
Micro-batch API) without embedding configuration in your topology 
code&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Support for existing topology code&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Define Storm Core API (Spouts/Bolts) using a flexible YAML 
DSL&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;YAML DSL support for most Storm components (storm-kafka, storm-hdfs, 
storm-hbase, etc.)&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Convenient support for multi-lang components&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;External property substitution/filtering for easily switching 
between configurations/environments (similar to Maven-style 
&lt;code&gt;${variable.name}&lt;/code&gt; substitution)&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;You can read more about Flux on the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/v0.10.0-beta/external/flux/README.md&quot;&gt;Flux
 documentation page&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;partial-key-groupings&quot;&gt;Partial Key Groupings&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In addition to the standard Stream Groupings Storm has always 
supported, version 0.10.0 introduces a new grouping named &amp;quot;Partial Key 
Grouping&amp;quot;. With the Partial Stream Grouping, the tuple  stream is 
partitioned by the fields specified in the grouping, like the Fields Grouping, 
but are load balanced between two downstream bolts, which provides better 
utilization of resources when the incoming data is skewed. &lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Documentation for the Partial Key Grouping and other stream groupings 
supported by Storm can be found &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://storm.apache.org/documentation/Concepts.html&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.
 &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://melmeric.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/the-power-of-both-choices-practical-load-balancing-for-distributed-stream-processing-engines.pdf&quot;&gt;This
 research paper&lt;/a&gt; provides additional details regarding how it works 
and its advantages.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;improved-logging-framework&quot;&gt;Improved Logging 
Framework&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Debugging distributed applications can be difficult, and usually 
focuses on one main source of information: application log files. But in a very 
low latency system like Storm where every millisecond counts, logging can be a 
double-edged sword: If you log too little information you may miss the 
information you need to solve a problem; log too much and you risk degrading 
the overall performance of your application as resources are consumed by the 
logging framework.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In version 0.10.0 Storm&amp;#39;s logging framework now uses &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/&quot;&gt;Apache Log4j 
2&lt;/a&gt; which, like Storm&amp;#39;s internal messaging subsystem, uses the 
extremely performant &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://lmax-exchange.github.io/disruptor/&quot;&gt;LMAX 
Disruptor&lt;/a&gt; messaging library. Log4j 2 boast an 18x higher throughput 
and orders of magnitude lower latency than Storm&amp;#39;s previous logging 
framework. More efficient resource utilization at the logging level means more 
resources are available where they matter most: executing your business 
logic.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;A few of the important features these changes bring include:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;ul&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Rolling log files with size, duration, and date-based triggers that 
are composable&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Dynamic log configuration updates without dropping log 
messages&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Remote log monitoring and (re)configuration via JMX&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;A Syslog/&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5424&quot;&gt;RFC-5424&lt;/a&gt;-compliant
 appender.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Integration with log aggregators such as syslog-ng&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;streaming-ingest-with-apache-hive&quot;&gt;Streaming ingest 
with Apache Hive&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Introduced in version 0.13, &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://hive.apache.org&quot;&gt;Apache Hive&lt;/a&gt; includes a 
&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Streaming+Data+Ingest&quot;&gt;Streaming
 Data Ingest API&lt;/a&gt; that allows data to be written continuously into 
Hive. The incoming data can be continuously committed in small batches of 
records into existing Hive partition or table. Once the data is committed its 
immediately visible to all hive queries.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Apache Storm 0.10.0 introduces both a Storm Core API bolt 
implementation 
+that allows users to stream data from Storm directly into hive. 
Storm&amp;#39;s Hive integration also includes a &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://storm.apache.org/documentation/Trident-state&quot;&gt;State&lt;/a&gt;
 implementation for Storm&amp;#39;s Micro-batching/Transactional API (Trident) 
that allows you to write to Hive from a micro-batch/transactional topology and 
supports exactly-once semantics for data persistence.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For more information on Storm&amp;#39;s Hive integration, see the 
&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/v0.10.0-beta/external/storm-hive/README.md&quot;&gt;storm-hive
 documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;microsoft-azure-event-hubs-integration&quot;&gt;Microsoft 
Azure Event Hubs Integration&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;With Microsoft Azure&amp;#39;s &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/hdinsight-storm-overview/&quot;&gt;support
 for running Storm on HDInsight&lt;/a&gt;, Storm is now a first class citizen 
of the Azure cloud computing platform. To better support Storm integration with 
Azure services, Microsoft engineers have contributed several components that 
allow Storm to integrate directly with &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/event-hubs/&quot;&gt;Microsoft
 Azure Event Hubs&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Storm&amp;#39;s Event Hubs integration includes both spout and bolt 
implementations for reading from, and writing to Event Hubs. The Event Hub 
integration also includes a Micro-batching/Transactional (Trident) spout 
implementation that supports fully fault-tolerant and reliable processing, as 
well as support for exactly-once message processing semantics.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;redis-support&quot;&gt;Redis Support&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Apache Storm 0.10.0 also introduces support for the &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://redis.io&quot;&gt;Redis&lt;/a&gt; data structure server. 
Storm&amp;#39;s Redis support includes bolt implementations for both writing to 
and querying Redis from a Storm topology, and is easily extended for custom use 
cases. For Storm&amp;#39;s micro-batching/transactional API, the Redis support 
includes both &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://storm.apache.org/documentation/Trident-state.html&quot;&gt;Trident
 State and MapState&lt;/a&gt; implementations for fault-tolerant state 
management with Redis.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Further information can be found in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/v0.10.0-beta/external/storm-redis/README.md&quot;&gt;storm-redis
 documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;jdbc/rdbms-integration&quot;&gt;JDBC/RDBMS 
Integration&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Many stream processing data flows require accessing data from or 
writing data to a relational data store. Storm 0.10.0 introduces highly 
flexible and customizable support for integrating with virtually any 
JDBC-compliant database.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The Storm-JDBC package includes core Storm bolt and Trident state 
implementations that allow a storm topology to either insert Storm tuple data 
into a database table or execute select queries against a database to enrich 
streaming data in a storm topology.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Further details and instructions can be found in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/v0.10.0-beta/external/storm-jdbc/README.md&quot;&gt;Storm-JDBC
 documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;reduced-dependency-conflicts&quot;&gt;Reduced Dependency 
Conflicts&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In previous Storm releases, it was not uncommon for users&amp;#39; 
topology dependencies to conflict with the libraries used by Storm. In Storm 
0.9.3 several dependency packages that were common sources of conflicts have 
been package-relocated (shaded) to avoid this situation. In 0.10.0 this list 
has been expanded.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Developers are free to use the Storm-packaged versions, or supply 
their own version. &lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The full list of Storm&amp;#39;s package relocations can be found 
&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/v0.10.0-beta/storm-core/pom.xml#L439&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;future-work&quot;&gt;Future Work&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;While the 0.10.0 release is an important milestone in the evolution 
of Apache Storm, the Storm community is actively working on new improvements, 
both near and long term, and continuously exploring the realm of the 
possible.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Twitter recently announced the Heron project, which claims to provide 
substantial performance improvements while maintaining 100% API compatibility 
with Storm. The corresponding research paper provides additional details 
regarding the architectural improvements. The fact that Twitter chose to 
maintain API compatibility with Storm is a testament to the power and 
flexibility of that API. Twitter has also expressed a desire to share their 
experiences and work with the Apache Storm community.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;A number of concepts expressed in the Heron paper were already in the 
implementation stage by the Storm community even before it was published, and 
we look forward to working with Twitter to bring those and other improvements 
to Storm.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;thanks&quot;&gt;Thanks&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Special thanks are due to all those who have contributed to Apache 
Storm -- whether through direct code contributions, documentation, bug reports, 
or helping other users on the mailing lists. Your efforts are very much valued 
and appreciated.&lt;/p&gt;

+        <title>Storm 0.9.3 released</title>
+        <description>&lt;p&gt;We are pleased to announce that Apache Storm 
0.9.3 has been released and is available from &lt;a 
href=&quot;/downloads.html&quot;&gt;the downloads page&lt;/a&gt;. This release 
includes 100 new fixes and improvements from 62 individual 
contributors.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;improved-kafka-integration&quot;&gt;Improved Kafka 
Integration&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Apache Storm has supported &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://kafka.apache.org/&quot;&gt;Apache Kafka&lt;/a&gt; as a 
streaming data source since version 0.9.2-incubating. Version 0.9.3 brings a 
number of improvements to the Kafka integration including the ability to write 
data to one or more Kafka clusters and topics.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The ability to both read from and write to Kafka further unlocks 
potential of the already powerful combination of Storm and Kafka. Storm users 
can now use Kafka as a source of and destination for streaming data. This 
allows for inter-topology communication, topology chaining, combining 
spout/bolt-based topologies with Trident-based data flows, and integration with 
any external system that supports data ingest from Kafka.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;More information about Storm&amp;#39;s Kafka integration can be found 
in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/v0.9.3/external/storm-kafka/README.md&quot;&gt;storm-kafka
 project documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;hdfs-integration&quot;&gt;HDFS Integration&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Many stream processing use cases involve storing data in HDFS for 
further analysis and offline (batch) processing. Apache Storm’s HDFS 
integration consists of several bolt and Trident state implementations that 
allow topology developers to easily write data to HDFS from any Storm topology. 
&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;More information about Storm&amp;#39;s HDFS integration can be found 
in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/tree/v0.9.3/external/storm-hdfs&quot;&gt;storm-hdfs
 project documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;hbase-integration&quot;&gt;HBase Integration&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Apache Storm’s HBase integration includes a number of components 
that allow Storm topologies to both write to and query HBase in real-time. Many 
organizations use Apache HBase as part of their big data strategy for batch, 
interactive, and real-time workflows. Storm’s HBase integration allows users 
to leverage data assets in HBase as streaming queries, as well as using HBase 
as a destination for streaming computation results.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;More information about Storm&amp;#39;s HBase integration can be found 
in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/tree/v0.9.3/external/storm-hbase&quot;&gt;storm-hbase
 project documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;reduced-dependency-conflicts&quot;&gt;Reduced Dependency 
Conflicts&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In previous Storm releases, it was not uncommon for users&amp;#39; 
topology dependencies to conflict with the libraries used by Storm. In Storm 
0.9.3 several dependency packages that were common sources of conflicts have 
been package-relocated (shaded) to avoid this situation. Developers are free to 
use the Storm-packaged versions, or supply their own version. &lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The following table lists the dependency package 
relocations:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;table&gt;&lt;thead&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;
+&lt;th style=&quot;text-align: left&quot;&gt;Dependency&lt;/th&gt;

+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;multi-lang-improvements&quot;&gt;Multi-Lang 
Improvements&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Apache Storm 0.9.3 includes a new &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://nodejs.org&quot;&gt;Node.js&lt;/a&gt; multi-lang 
implementation that allows developers to write spouts and bolts in 
JavaScript.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In addition to the Node.js implementation, the multi-lang protocol 
has been substantially improved in terms of robustness and error handling 
capabilities. As a result, &lt;strong&gt;the multi-lang API has changed in a 
non-backward-compatible way&lt;/strong&gt;. Users with existing multi-lang 
topologies should consult the Python, Ruby, and JavaScript multi-lang examples 
to determine the impact prior to upgrading.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;thanks&quot;&gt;Thanks&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Special thanks are due to all those who have contributed to Storm -- 
whether through direct code contributions, documentation, bug reports, or 
helping other users on the mailing lists. Your efforts are much 
appreciated.&lt;/p&gt;

+        <title>Storm 0.9.3 release candidate 1 available</title>
+        <description>&lt;p&gt;We are pleased to announce that Apache Storm 
version 0.9.3 has reached the release candidate stage.  The latest release is 
0.9.3-rc1.  We are moving closer to the GA release, so this is a good time to 
give this new 0.9.3 version a try!&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Storm 0.9.3 is a maintenance release with bug fixes and better 
stability as summarized in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md&quot;&gt;0.9.3
 changelog&lt;/a&gt;.  On top of that version 0.9.3 continues to improve the 
integration with &lt;a href=&quot;http://kafka.apache.org/&quot;&gt;Apache 
Kafka&lt;/a&gt; as well as the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/master/external/storm-kafka/README.md&quot;&gt;documentation
 of the core spout and Trident spout for Kafka&lt;/a&gt;, which will provide 
our users with the best Kafka connectivity for Storm to date.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;We heartily encourage you to &lt;a 
href=&quot;http://storm.apache.org/downloads.html&quot;&gt;test the 0.9.3 
release candidate&lt;/a&gt; and provide your feedback regarding any issues via 
&lt;a href=&quot;http://storm.apache.org/community.html&quot;&gt;our mailing 
lists&lt;/a&gt;, which is an easy and valuable way to contribute back to the 
Storm community and to help us moving to an official 0.9.3 release.  You can 
find the &lt;a href=&quot;http://storm.apache.org/downloads.html&quot;&gt;0.9.3 
release candidate in our Downloads section&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

+        <title>Storm 0.9.2 released</title>
+        <description>&lt;p&gt;We are pleased to announce that Storm 
0.9.2-incubating has been released and is available from &lt;a 
href=&quot;/downloads.html&quot;&gt;the downloads page&lt;/a&gt;. This release 
includes many important fixes and improvements.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;netty-transport-improvements&quot;&gt;Netty Transport 
Improvements&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Storm&amp;#39;s Netty-based transport has been overhauled to 
significantly improve performance through better utilization of thread, CPU, 
and network resources, particularly in cases where message sizes are small. 
Storm contributor Sean Zhong (&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/clockfly&quot;&gt;@clockfly&lt;/a&gt;) deserves a 
great deal of credit not only for discovering, analyzing, documenting and 
fixing the root cause, but also for persevering through an extended review 
process and promptly addressing all concerns.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Those interested in the technical details and evolution of this patch 
can find out more in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-297&quot;&gt;JIRA ticket 
for STORM-297&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Sean also discovered and fixed an &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-342&quot;&gt;elusive 
bug&lt;/a&gt; in Storm&amp;#39;s usage of the Disruptor queue that could lead 
to out-of-order or lost messages. &lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Many thanks to Sean for contributing these important fixes.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;storm-ui-improvements&quot;&gt;Storm UI Improvements&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;This release also includes a number of improvements to the Storm UI 
service. Contributor Sriharsha Chintalapani(&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/harshach&quot;&gt;@harshach&lt;/a&gt;) added a 
REST API to the Storm UI service to expose metrics and operations in JSON 
format, and updated the UI to use that API.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The new REST API will make it considerably easier for other services 
to consume availabe cluster and topology metrics for monitoring and 
visualization applications. Kyle Nusbaum (&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/knusbaum&quot;&gt;@knusbaum&lt;/a&gt;) has 
already leveraged the REST API to create a topology visualization tool now 
included in Storm UI and illustrated in the screenshot below.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/images/ui_topology_viz.png&quot; alt=&quot;Storm 
UI Topology Visualization&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In the visualization, spout components are represented as blue, while 
bolts are colored between green and red depending on their associated capacity 
metric. The width of the lines between the components represent the flow of 
tuples relative to the other visible streams. &lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;kafka-spout&quot;&gt;Kafka Spout&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;This is the first Storm release to include official support for 
consuming data from Kafka 0.8.x. In the past, development of Kafka spouts for 
Storm had become somewhat fragmented and finding an implementation that worked 
with certain versions of Storm and Kafka proved burdensome for some developers. 
This is no longer the case, as the &lt;code&gt;storm-kafka&lt;/code&gt; module 
is now part of the Storm project and associated artifacts are released to 
official channels (Maven Central) along with Storm&amp;#39;s other 
components.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Thanks are due to GitHub user &lt;a 
href=&quot;&quot;&gt;@wurstmeister&lt;/a&gt; for picking up Nathan 
Marz&amp;#39; original Kafka 0.7.x implementation, updating it to work with 
Kafka 0.8.x, and contributing that work back to the Storm community.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The &lt;code&gt;storm-kafka&lt;/code&gt; module can be found in the 
&lt;code&gt;/external/&lt;/code&gt; directory of the source tree and binary 
distributions. The &lt;code&gt;external&lt;/code&gt; area has been set up to 
contain projects that while not required by Storm, are often used in 
conjunction with Storm to integrate with some other technology. Such projects 
also come with a maintenance committment from at least one Storm committer to 
ensure compatibility with Storm&amp;#39;s main codebase as it evolves.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The &lt;code&gt;storm-kafka&lt;/code&gt; dependency is available now 
from Maven Central at the following coordinates:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;div class=&quot;highlight&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code 
class=&quot;language-text&quot; data-lang=&quot;text&quot;&gt;groupId: 
org.apache.storm
+artifactId: storm-kafka
+version: 0.9.2-incubating
+&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Users, and Scala developers in particular, should note that the Kafka 
dependency is listed as &lt;code&gt;provided&lt;/code&gt;. This allows users to 
choose a specific Scala version as described in the &lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/apache/incubator-storm/tree/v0.9.2-incubating/external/storm-kafka&quot;&gt;project
 README&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;storm-starter-and-examples&quot;&gt;Storm Starter and 
Examples&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Similar to the &lt;code&gt;external&lt;/code&gt; section of the 
codebase, we have also added an &lt;code&gt;examples&lt;/code&gt; directory and 
pulled in the &lt;code&gt;storm-starter&lt;/code&gt; project to ensure it will 
be maintained in lock-step with Storm&amp;#39;s main codebase.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Thank you to Storm committer Michael G. Noll for his continued work 
in maintaining and improving the &lt;code&gt;storm-starter&lt;/code&gt; 
project.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;plugable-serialization-for-multilang&quot;&gt;Plugable 
Serialization for Multilang&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In previous versions of Storm, serialization of data to and from 
multilang components was limited to JSON, imposing somewhat of performance 
penalty. Thanks to a contribution from John Gilmore (&lt;a 
href=&quot;https://github.com/jsgilmore&quot;&gt;@jsgilmore&lt;/a&gt;) the 
serialization mechanism is now plugable and enables the use of more performant 
serialization frameworks like protocol buffers in addition to JSON.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;thanks&quot;&gt;Thanks&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Special thanks are due to all those who have contributed to Storm -- 
whether through direct code contributions, documentation, bug reports, or 
helping other users on the mailing lists. Your efforts are much 
appreciated.&lt;/p&gt;

+        <title>Logo Contest - Round 1 Results</title>
+        <description>&lt;p&gt;Round one of the Apache Storm logo contest is 
now complete and was a great success. We received votes from 7 PPMC members as 
well as 46 votes from the greater Storm community.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;We would like to extend a very special thanks to all those who took 
the time and effort to create and submit a logo proposal. We would also like to 
thank everyone who voted.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h2 id=&quot;results&quot;&gt;Results&lt;/h2&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The Storm PPMC and community votes were closely aligned, with the 
community vote resolving a PPMC tie for the 3rd finalist as shown in the result 
table below.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The three finalists entering the final round are:&lt;/p&gt;

Bartos&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/2014/04/29/logo-jlee1.html&quot;&gt;No. 9 -
