[Hawkular-dev] Hawkular Metrics 0.12.0 - Release

Hello Everybody, I am happy to announce release 0.12.0 of Hawkular Metrics. This release is anchored by Hawkular integration enhancements, under-the-cover refactoring and changes in code structure, and removal of the deprecated JAX-RS 1.1 implementation. Here is a list of major changes in this release: 1) Hawkular Authentication * When deployed part of Hawkular distribution, Hawkular Metrics uses Hawkular Accounts for authentication and authorization * Due to multi-tenant data segregation, Hawkular Accounts does both authentication and authorization since there are no specific permissions within Hawkular Metrics * For more details: HWKMETRICS-69, HWKMETRICS-344 2) Performance Improvements * Removed obsolete code for tracking tenants; this increased for cases where data was written under a tenant that did not exist before (HWKMETRICS-341) * Removed the virtual clock handler (used to accelerate internal metrics clock) since it is no longer used (HWKMETRICS-340) 3) JAX-RS 1.1 Implementation - Removed * The already deprecated JAX-RS 1.1 implementation of Hawkular Metrics has now been removed from the source tree and the modules consolidated * Going forward only JAX-RS 2.0 implementation of the REST API is available 4) Wildfly 10 - Deploying & Running * Deploying and running the project on Wildfly 10 is now fully supported * IMPORTANT: Support for Wildfly 9 is now dropped Github Release: https://github.com/hawkular/hawkular-metrics/releases/tag/0.12.0 JBoss Nexus Maven artifacts: http://origin-repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/public/org/...
