We are happy to announce that Cascading 1.2 is now publicly available for download.
http://www.cascading.org/2010/12/cascading-12-now-available.html This release features many performance and usability enhancements while remaining backwards compatible with 1.0 and 1.1. Specifically: • Performance optimizations during grouping • Composable map-side partial aggregations • Native Riffle support for non-Cascading (or nested iterative Cascading) processes We are also happy to announce that Cascading and its extensions have their own Maven/Ivy Jar repository, Conjars. http://conjars.org/ Conjars is a public repository, any developer wishing to publish Cascading libraries and extensions can register their public key and push artifacts. Along with this release are a number of extensions created by the Cascading user community. http://www.cascading.org/modules.html Among these extension are: • Cascading.Avro - Cascading Scheme for the Apache Avro data serialization format. • Cascading.Memcached - Integration with Memcached, Membase, and ElasticSearch. • Bixo - a web mining toolkit • DBMigrate - a tool for migrating data to/from RDBMSs into Hadoop • Cascalog - a robust interactive extensible query language cheers, chris -- Chris K Wensel [email protected] http://www.concurrentinc.com -- Concurrent, Inc. offers mentoring, support, and licensing for Cascading
