Dear Igniters, I'm happy to announce that the 1st beta version of Ignite 3 is out!
On top of the functionality that was previously released, Beta 5 adds the following major features: - RPM and DEB packages: simplified installation and node management with system services. - Client's Partition Awareness: Clients are now aware of data distribution over the cluster nodes which helps avoid additional network transmissions and lowers operations latency. - C++ client: Basic C++ client, able to perform operations on data. - Autogenerated values: now a function can be specified as a default value generator during a table creation. Currently only gen_random_uuid is supported. - SQL Transactions. - Transactional Protocol: improved locking model, multi-version based lock-free read-only transactions. - Storage: A number of improvements to memory-only and on-disk engines based on Page Memory. - Indexes: Basic functionality, hash and sorted indexes. - Client logging: A LoggerFactory may be provided during client creation to specify a custom logger for logs generated by the client. - Metrics framework. Code examples have been added for the new features, you can check them out https://github.com/apache/ignite-3/tree/ignite-3.0.0-beta1/examples If there are any questions, issues, or thoughts, please do not hesitate to reply to this email. Ignite Community is welcoming any feedback and will consider it in future development. Thanks, S.
