Hi everyone, This is a call for a vote on Apache Phoenix 3.1.0 RC2. This is the next minor release of Phoenix compatible with the 0.94 branch of Apache HBase and will be our first release as a top level project. The release includes both a source-only release and a convenience binary release.
The previous RC was sunk due to a number of issues which are now fixed (thanks for reporting these): - Aggregation over null fixed length values (PHOENIX-965) - Auto-cast to DECIMAL not working (PHOENIX-1047) - Client-side metadata cache inconsistencies (PHOENIX-1181) - Performance regression for non aggregate queries (PHOENIX-1188) - UPSERT SELECT join bug (PHOENIX-1182) - Support JDBC setReadOnly and setFetchSize instead of throwing (PHOENIX-1175) In addition to lots of bug fixes, the follow new features were added: - Support for derived/nested tables - Support for MINVALUE, MAXVALUE, and CYCLE in sequence creation - Detect mutable index write failures and perform partial rebuild automatically - Chunking of results from non aggregate queries to reduced latency and prevent unnecessary spooling - Easier integration with third-party tools by not requiring Phoenix to be on the main classpath. - Implementation of a Pig Loader - Support for ANY/ALL constructors for ARRAYs - Allow connection to secure cluster by specifying keytab and principal on URL - New operators and built-in functions: %, ENCODE, DECODE, LPAD, FIRST_VALUE, LAST_VALUE, NTH_VALUE For a complete list of changes, see: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apache/phoenix/3.0/CHANGES The source tarball, including signatures, digests, etc can be found at: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/phoenix/phoenix-3.1.0-rc2/src/ The binary artifacts can be found at: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/phoenix/phoenix-3.1.0-rc2/bin/ Release artifacts are signed with the following key: https://people.apache.org/keys/committer/mujtaba.asc KEYS file available here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/phoenix/KEYS The hash and tag to be voted upon: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=phoenix.git;a=commit;h=e010a979df7890dee703978c1fa45f26f2f5f3ac https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=phoenix.git;a=tag;h=refs/tags/v3.1.0-rc2 Vote will be open for at least 72 hours.
