Hi all, There have been some new features and critical bug fixes added to master since 0.13.0 release, which makes Samza Standalone features more stable. It is now good enough to warrant *a new minor release*. We will continue to test for stability and performance in the next few weeks. Here are the main JIRA tickets that will be included in this release (but not limited to): SAMZA-1165: Cleanup data created by ZkStandalone in ZK; SAMZA-1324: Add a metricsreporter lifecycle for JobCoordinator component of StreamProcessor; SAMZA-1336: Standalone session expiration propagation; SAMZA-1337: LocalApplicationRunner needs to support StreamTask; SAMZA-1339: Add standalone integration tests; … There are also quite a few bug fixes in 0.13.1, *please check the complete list of changes in 0.13.1 here <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA-1165?jql=project%20%3D%2012314526%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%2012340845%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20DESC%2C%20key%20ASC>* . Most JIRAs in the list have been completed and merged, with the following one remaining, but we should try to get it completed before 0.13.1 is released. SAMZA-1385: Coordination utils in LocalApplicationRunner uses same Zk node as ZkJobCoordinatorFactory for leader election Here's what I propose: 1. Cut an 0.13.1 release branch. 2. Work on getting the remaining open JIRA done. 3. Target a release vote by Aug 18. Thoughts? Fred
