+
+ <p>The Apache Cassandra team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Cassandra <a target="blank" href="https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/cassandra/4.0-rc2/apache-cassandra-4.0-rc2-bin.tar.gz" target=_blank>4.0-rc2</a> (<a target="_blank" href="https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/4.0-rc2/apache-cassandra-4.0-rc2-bin.tar.gz.asc">pgp</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/4.0-rc2/apache-cassandra-4.0-rc2-bin.tar.gz.sha256">sha256</a>, and <a target="_blank" href="https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/4.0-rc2/apache-cassandra-4.0-rc2-bin.tar.gz.sha512">sha512</a>). Please read the <a target="_blank" href="https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cassandra.git;a=blob_plain;f=NEWS.txt;hb=refs/tags/cassandra-4.0-rc2">release notes</a> and let us <a target="_blank" href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA">know</a> if you encounter any problems.</p>
+
+ <p>This version is a release candidate on the 4.0 series.</p>
+
+ <p>Note: The bintray location is now replaced with the <a target="_blank" href="https://apache.jfrog.io/artifactory/cassandra/">ASF's JFrog Artifactory location</a>.</p>
+
+ <p>Downloads of source and binary distributions for the latest stable and older supported version are listed in our <a href="https://cassandra.apache.org/download/">download section</a>:</p>

+ <h2 id="community-notes">Community Notes</h2>
+
+ <p><em>Updates on Cassandra Enhancement Proposals (CEPs), how to contribute, and other community activities.</em></p>
+
+ <h4 id="added">Added</h4>
+
+ <p>Netflix’s internal teams create easy-to-use tooling that helps streamline user experience and incorporates best practices. It has open-sourced one of the tools, <a target="_blank" href="https://github.com/Netflix/nf-data-explorer">Data Explorer</a>, which provides fast, safe access to data stored in popular databases, including Apache Cassandra. Gim Mahasintunan has written an explanation <a target="_blank" href="https://netflixtechblog.com/exploring-data-netflix-9d87e20072e3">here</a>. The tool includes a drag and drop Schema Designer for writing CREATE TABLE statements, support for binary data, and multiple cluster access, along with a powerful CQL IDE in Query mode.</p>
+
+ <h4 id="added">Added</h4>
+
+ <p><a target="_blank" href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/CEP-10%3A+Cluster+and+Code+Simulations">CEP-10</a> is under discussion. This is a proposal for a mechanism to evaluate whole clusters, or individual classes, with a deterministically pseudo-random ordering of all thread and message events. The goal will be to simulate a cluster and actions on it (or simpler unit tests) so that the behavior is deterministic, repeatable but pseudo-random.</p>
+
+ <h4 id="added">Added</h4>
+
+ <p>Yifan Cai has noted that JMXTimer exposes its attributes in inconsistent time units: nanos and micros. By correcting this inconsistency and using micros, we can reduce the timer memory footprint by 50%. You can read about the details <a target="_blank" href="https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/rb0b5c2920ae7a3efb52c8a36b09a3c5e1547f8786790c5b1f4eb0f96%40%3Cdev.cassandra.apache.org%3E">here</a>.</p>
+
+ <h4 id="added">Added</h4>
+
+ <p>We are pleased to welcome Abuli Palagashvili, who was selected to participate in Google Summer of Code (GSoC) on Apache Cassandra this year. He will be working primarily on <a target="_blank" href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16451">CASSANDRA-16451</a>.</p>
+
+ <h4 id="added">Added</h4>
+
+ <p>As the project looks to the future, we are adding a roadmap page to the new <a href="https://cassandra.apache.org/">Apache Cassandra project website</a>. The community is also looking towards new features, and you can take a look at the features that developers plan to work on <a target="_blank" href="https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r8e6eb9c855484d584d0dd2a74d60d9893c08bfc453c0321a901793b2%40%3Cdev.cassandra.apache.org%3E">here</a>.</p>
+
+ <h4 id="added">Added</h4>
+
+ <p>We’ve released new Apache Cassandra community videos: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKdT6f6wQyo">What is Apache Cassandra?</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOf29M8qFts">What's New in Apache Cassandra 4.0?</a>. A big thank you goes to Ben Bromhead, Ekaterina Dimitrova, and Patrick McFadin for presenting and helping put these together! 👏 Remember, if you weren’t able to attend Cassandra World Party, we’ve also uploaded all the recorded lightning talks to this <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZNrTlIazA0&list=PLqcm6qE9lgKLi4TD3azt3soaCjfXte32m">playlist</a>.</p>
