[ANNOUNCE] Apache Kudu 1.3.1 released

2017-04-19 Thread Todd Lipcon
The Apache Kudu team is happy to announce the release of Kudu 1.3.1.

Kudu is an open source storage engine for structured data which supports
low-latency random access together with efficient analytical access
patterns. It is designed within the context of the Apache Hadoop ecosystem
and supports many integrations with other data analytics projects both
inside and outside of the Apache Software Foundation.

Apache Kudu 1.3.1 is a bug fix release which fixes critical issues
discovered in Apache Kudu 1.3.0. In particular, this fixes a bug in which
data could be incorrectly deleted after certain sequences of node failures.
Several other bugs are also fixed. See the release notes for details.

Users of Kudu 1.3.0 are encouraged to upgrade to 1.3.1 immediately.
