Hello all, This is a call for vote to release Apache ShardingSphere (Incubating) version 4.0.0-RC2.
The Apache ShardingSphere community has voted on and approved a proposal to release Apache ShardingSphere (Incubating) version 4.0.0-RC2. We now kindly request the Incubator PMC members review and vote on this incubator release. ShardingSphere is an open-source ecosystem consisted of a set of distributed database middleware solutions, including 2 independent products, Sharding-JDBC & Sharding-Proxy. Sharding-JDBC is an enhanced JDBC driver that provides in-process transparent distributed database by connecting to multiple database back ends. It supports many ORM frameworks and database connection pools and supports many back end databases that have JDBC interfaces: MySQL, Oracle, SQLServer and PostgreSQL. Sharding-Proxy is a database proxy that runs in a separate process and appears as a database server to multiple back end databases. It supports multiple client front ends such as MySQL Command Client, MySQL Workbench, Navicat etc. Current support is for MySQL and PostgreSQL.
