[ANNOUNCE] Apache Geode 1.6.0

[Mike Stolz <mi...@apache.org>]

The Apache Geode community is pleased to announce

the availability of Apache Geode 1.6.0.

Apache Geode is a data management platform

that provides a database-like consistency model,

reliable transaction processing and a shared-nothing

architecture to maintain very low latency performance

with high concurrency processing.

Geode 1.6.0 contains a number of improvements and bug fixes.

This release adds support for new MBeans to monitor

size and overflow stats for the Gateway sender queue

new gfsh commands to list, destroy and describe JNDI bindings,

and fixes for several minor bugs.

Users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest release.
