________________________________ From: Bolke de Bruin <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 20, 2017 5:30 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Airflow 1.8.0-incubating Released The Apache Airflow (incubating) Team is proud to announce the release of Apache Airflow 1.8.0-incubating. This is a source code only release. ABOUT AIRFLOW Airflow is a platform to programmatically author, schedule and monitor workflows. Use airflow to author workflows as directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) of tasks. The airflow scheduler executes your tasks on an array of workers while following the specified dependencies. Rich command line utilities make performing complex surgeries on DAGs a snap. The rich user interface makes it easy to visualize pipelines running in production, monitor progress, and troubleshoot issues when needed. When workflows are defined as code, they become more maintainable, versionable, testable, and collaborative. FEATURES AND ENHANCEMENTS IN THIS RELEASE Over 350 commits have been made since the last (non apache) release. Therefore, in order to see all changes please check the changelog included with the distribution. Highlights: * Multi-processing and robust parsing of DAGs * Experimental API * Improved Kerberos Integration * Many new and improved operators particularly for cloud providers * Many UI improvements RELEASE ARTIFACTS ARE AVAILABLE AT http://apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/incubator/airflow/1.8.0-incubating SHA256 & MD5 SIGNATURES (verify your downloads <https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi#verify>): Apache Download Mirrors<https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi#verify> www.apache.org We suggest the following mirror site for your download: http://mirror.olnevhost.net/pub/apache/ Other mirror sites are suggested below.
