Dear Community, In the last several months, the development of Ignite 3 has been moving forward significantly. On top of what we already had in the first Alpha, we have the following features ready:
- Replication infrastructure based on Raft - In-memory atomic storage with the basic insert-read functionality - New schema management engine and API In my view, this constitutes a significant milestone, and I propose to release it as the Alpha 2. This way it will be available for download, and anyone will be able to play with the project, run examples, get a feel of how Ignite will work in the future, and provide feedback. Please vote. --- The release candidate is uploaded here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/ignite/3.0.0-alpha2-rc1/ Maven staging: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheignite-1522/ Git tag: https://github.com/apache/ignite-3/tree/3.0.0-alpha2-rc1 Jira tickets: https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%2012315922%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%2012349574%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20DESC%2C%20key%20ASC DEVNOTES: https://github.com/apache/ignite-3/blob/3.0.0-alpha2-rc1/DEVNOTES.md The vote is formal, see voting guidelines: https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html +1 - accept Apache Ignite 3.0.0-alpha2 RC1 0 - don't care either way -1 - DO NOT accept Apache Ignite 3.0.0-alpha2 RC1 (explain why) See notes on how to verify release here: https://www.apache.org/info/verification.html This vote will be open for 72 hours and will close on June 28th at 11pm UTC: https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to?iso=20210628T16&p0=224&msg=Apache+Ignite+3.0.0-alpha2+RC1&font=cursive&csz=1 -Val
