[RELEASE] Apache Cassandra 2.0 released
The Cassandra team is very pleased to announce the release of Apache
Cassandra
version 2.0.0. Cassandra 2.0.0 is a new major release that adds numerous
improvements[1,2], including:
- Lightweight transactions[4] that offers linearizable consistency.
- Experimental Triggers Support[5].
- Numerous enhancements to CQL as well as a new and better version of the
native protocol[6].
- Compaction improvements[7] (including a hybrid strategy that combines
leveled and size-tiered compaction).
- A new faster Thrift Server implementation based on LMAX Disruptor[8].
- Eager retries: avoids query timeout by sending data requests to other
replicas if too much time passes on the original request.
See the full changelog[1] for more and please make sure to check the release
notes[2] for upgrading details.
Both source and binary distributions of Cassandra 2.0.0 can be downloaded
at:
http://cassandra.apache.org/download/
As usual, a debian package is available from the project APT repository[3]
(you will need to use the 20x series).
