Riak Users, Today I'm happy to announce the 0.11.0 release of Yokozuna.
This release brings Riak Java Client support as well as authentication and security for the HTTP and protocol buffer transports. An access control list (ACL) may be created to control administration and access to indexes. All official Riak clients should now have full support for Yokozuna's administration and search API. Stored boolean fields and tagging support were fixed for the protocol buffer transport. And finally, documentation was added. The new CONCEPTS document [1] goes over various important concepts in Yokozuna and the RESOURCES document [2] has links to other resources for learning. There isn't much documentation on specifically how to use the new security features besides in the pull request itself but I will rectify that soon with a security specific doc page. This release may confuse some people given that the Riak 2.0 Tech Preview (2.0.0pre5) [3] was just released last week. Why continue with separate Yokozuna releases? What is the difference? These questions are answered in the INSTALL document [4], but the short story is that Yokozuna runs on a monthly release cycle and therefore out paces official Riak releases. These monthly releases allow you to try the latest Yokozuna features and bug fixes without waiting for the next Riak release. These releases should never be used for production. See the INSTALL document for more information. In summary: If you need to test the latest features then use the Riak-Yokozuna source package. Otherwise just stick to the tech preview until the final Riak 2.0 package drops. Finally, the only feature in Riak-Yokozuna 0.11.0 not found in Riak 2.0.0pre5 is the security feature. See the release notes and install document for more details. https://github.com/basho/yokozuna/blob/develop/docs/RELEASE_NOTES.md#0110 https://github.com/basho/yokozuna/blob/develop/docs/INSTALL.md -Z [1]: https://github.com/basho/yokozuna/blob/develop/docs/CONCEPTS.md [2]: https://github.com/basho/yokozuna/blob/develop/docs/RESOURCES.md [3]: http://docs.basho.com/riak/2.0.0pre5/downloads/ [4]: https://github.com/basho/yokozuna/blob/develop/docs/INSTALL.md
