[infinispan-dev] Infinispan 5.2.0.Final is out!

[Erik Salter]

Congratulations to the team.

 

One minor FYI for those who build the source under JDK 6 (yes, I know).
5.2.0.FINAL requires Java 6u30 or later due to this compiler bug.

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
