On behalf of the Apache Drill community, I am happy to announce the release of Apache Drill 1.15.0.
Drill is an Apache open-source SQL query engine for Big Data exploration. Drill is designed from the ground up to support high-performance analysis on the semi-structured and rapidly evolving data coming from modern Big Data applications, while still providing the familiarity and ecosystem of ANSI SQL, the industry-standard query language. Drill provides plug-and-play integration with existing Apache Hive and Apache HBase deployments. For information about Apache Drill, and to get involved, visit the project website [1]. With over 200 commits this release of Drill provides the following new features and improvements [2]: - SQLLine upgrade to 1.6 (DRILL-3853) - Index support (DRILL-6381) - Ability to create custom ACLs to secure znodes (DRILL-5671) - INFORMATION_SCHEMA FILES table (DRILL-6680) - System functions table (DRILL-3988) For the full list please see release notes [3]. The binary and source artifacts are available here [4]. Thanks to everyone in the community who contributed to this release! Congratulations on another Drill release!
