Infinispan 5.2.0.Final is out!
by Mircea Markus
Hi,
I am pleased to announce the much awaited final release of Infinispan 5.2.0. Containing more than 100 features and enhancements and 150 bug fixes [1], this release the sustained effort of engineering, QA and our growing community - a big thanks to everyone involved!
Highlights:
- The non-blocking state transfer[2] which is a much more efficient and flexible implementation of the functionality that allows Infinispan to serve requests during nodes joining/leaving.
- The cross-site replication[3] functionality which allows backing up data between geographically distributed clusters in order to protect against catastrophic failures
- Rolling upgrades[4] of the hotrod clusters (zero downtime for upgrades)
- a handful of fixes[5] and improvements for the Map/Reduce framework

5.3.0.Alpha1
by Mircea Markus
Hi,
As we've discussed in Palma, the first thing we'll start with for 5.3 is make the test suite green. Moving the CI to an own-managed machine is tracked as well on a different thread.
We have quite some random failures[1], let's first focus on stabilising the test suite before any other fixes (unless something critical is raised by QA).
Besides the test suite Sanne also required an early release of ISPN-2689 : supporting Apache Lucene 4, so this pull request should also make its way into the release. Galder/Sanne this seems to be ready for integration?
I've cut a 5.2.x branch of master. Please make sure the relevant fixes would be contributed to both master (5.3) and back ported to 5.2.x (at this stage this shouldn't be more than cherry-picking of the commits to the other branch).
