The Apache Phoenix PMC is happy to announce the release of Phoenix
5.0.0-alpha for Apache Hadoop 3 and Apache HBase 2.0. The release is
available for download at here[1].
Apache Phoenix enables OLTP and operational analytics in Hadoop for low
latency applications by combining the power of standard SQL and JDBC
APIs with full ACID transaction capabilities as well as the flexibility
of late-bound, schema-on-read capabilities provided by HBase.
This is a "preview" release of Apache Phoenix 5.0.0. This release is
specifically designed for users who want to use the newest versions of
Hadoop and HBase while the quality of Phoenix is still incubating. This
release should be of sufficient quality for most users, but it is not of
the same quality as most Phoenix releases.
Please refer to the release notes[2] of this release for a full list of
known issues. The Phoenix developers would be extremely receptive to any
and all that use this release and report any issues as this will
directly increase the quality of the 5.0.0 release.
