The Apache Geode community is pleased to announce the availability of

consistency model, reliable transaction processing and a shared-nothing
architecture to maintain very low latency performance with high concurrency
processing.

While 1.13.3 is currently the latest release of Apache Geode, Geode 1.12.3
brings a subset of critical fixes for users not yet able to upgrade.

For the full list of changes please review the release notes:
