+
+<p>Apache Calcite Avatica 1.8.0 continues the focus on compatibility with previous
+versions while also adding support for authentication between Avatica client and server.
+Performance, notably on the write-path, is also major area of improvement
+in this release, increasing as much as two to three times over previous versions
+with the addition of new API support. The documentation for both users and developers
+continues to receive improvements.</p>
+
+<p>A number of protocol issues are resolved relating to the proper serialization of
+decimals, the wire-API semantics of signed integers that were marked as unsigned
+integers, and the unintentional Base64-encoding of binary data using the Protocol
+Buffers serialization in Avatica. These issues were fixed in such a way to be
+backwards compatible, but older clients/servers may still compute incorrect data.</p>
+
+<p>Users of Avatica 1.7.x should not notice any issues in upgrading existing applications
+and are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible.</p>

+<p>Apache Calcite Avatica 1.8.0 continues the focus on compatibility with previous
+versions while also adding support for authentication between Avatica client and server.
+Performance, notably on the write-path, is also major area of improvement
+in this release, increasing as much as two to three times over previous versions
+with the addition of new API support. The documentation for both users and developers
+continues to receive improvements.</p>
+
+<p>Authentication is a major theme of this release, providing multiple layers of
+additional authentication mechanisms over previous versions. In these earlier
+versions, the only authentication provided by Avatica was achieved via the JDBC URL’s
+standard user and password options. These have always been passed directly into
+the backend database’s authentication system, but not all databases provide username
+and password based authentication systems. <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1173">CALCITE-1173</a>
+adds Avatica-level authentication over <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication">HTTP Basic</a>
+and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication">HTTP Digest</a>
+authentication mechanisms. These are provided specifically for the case when
+Avatica is used with a database that <em>does not already</em> provide its own authentication
+implementation.</p>
+
+<p>Some systems rely on <a href="http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/">Kerberos</a> for strong, centrally-
+managed authentication. <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1159">CALCITE-1159</a>
+introduces Kerberos-based authentication for clients via <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPNEGO">SPNEGO</a>.
+The Avatica server can be configured to only allow clients with a valid Kerberos ticket,
+optionally, also passing this information to the backend database to implement
+basic “impersonation” (where the Avatica server issues requests on behalf of the end user).</p>
+
+<p>Building on top of the work done in Avatica-1.7.0 in <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1091">CALCITE-1091</a>,
+this release also contains <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1128">CALCITE-1128</a> which
+implements the batch-oriented JDBC APIs on <code class="highlighter-rouge">Statement</code>. Through careful inspection, it
+was observed that the overall performance of Avatica clients in 100% write workloads was
+dominated by the cost of the HTTP calls. By leveraging the <code class="highlighter-rouge">Statement#addBatch()</code>
+and <code class="highlighter-rouge">Statement#executeBatch()</code> API calls, clients can efficiently batch multiple updates
+in a single HTTP call. In testing this over the previous single HTTP call per update with
+<a href="https://phoenix.apache.org">Apache Phoenix</a>, it was observed that performance increased by
+two to three times, bringing Avatica’s performance on par with the Phoenix “native” driver.</p>
+
+<p>Returning back to compatibility, a new component appears in this release which is designed to
+test versions of Avatica against each other. <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1190">CALCITE-1190</a>
+introduces a “Technology Compatibility Kit” (TCK) which automates the testing of one version
+of Avatica against other versions. To further ease this testing, a runnable JAR to launch
+an HSQLDB instance and an Avatica server also makes it debut with these changes. This TCK
+makes it much easier to run tests of newer clients against older servers and vice versa.
+Validating the backwards compatibility that is being built is extremely important to be
+confident in the guarantees being provided to users.</p>
+
+<p>Finally, a number of bugs are also fixed in the Protocol Buffer wire API. Some of these
+include <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1113">CALCITE-1113</a> and
+<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1103">CALCITE-1103</a> which fix how certain
+numbers are serialized, <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1243">CALITE-1243</a>
+which corrects some fields in Protocol Buffer messages which were incorrectly marked
+as unsigned integers instead of signed integers, and <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1209">CALCITE-1209</a>
+which removes incorrect parsing of binary fields as Base64-encoded strings. All of
+these issues are fixed in a backwards-compatible manner and should have no additional negative
+impact on older clients (older clients will not break, but they may continue to return
+incorrect data for certain numbers).</p>
+
+<p>For users of the Avatica driver, a new <a href="/avatica/docs/client_reference.html">client reference page</a>
+is added which details the options that are available in the Avatica JDBC Driver’s URL.
+The wire API documentation for Protocol Buffers continues to receive updates as the API continues to evolve.</p>
