+title: Apache Kudu 1.16.0 Released
+author: Attila Bukor
+---
+
+The Apache Kudu team is happy to announce the release of Kudu 1.16.0!
+
+The new release adds several new features and improvements, including the
+following:
+
+<!--more-->
+
+* Kudu has a new `/startup` page on the web UI where admins can easily track
+  startup progress of a Kudu server.
+
+* It is now possible to change the replication of an existing table, and to
+  require a minimum replication factor across a Kudu cluster.
+
+The above is just a list of the highlights, for a more complete list of new
+features, improvements and fixes please refer to the [release
+notes](/releases/1.16.0/docs/release_notes.html).
+
+The Apache Kudu project only publishes source code releases. To build Kudu
+1.16.0, follow these steps:
+
+- Download the Kudu [1.16.0 source release](/releases/1.16.0)
+- Follow the instructions in the documentation to build Kudu [1.16.0 from
+  source](/releases/1.16.0/docs/installation.html#build_from_source)
+
+For your convenience, binary JAR files for the Kudu Java client library, Spark
+DataSource, Flume sink, and other Java integrations are published to the ASF
+Maven repository and are [now
+available](https://search.maven.org/search?q=g:org.apache.kudu%20AND%20v:1.16.0).
+
+The Python client source is also available on
+[PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/kudu-python/).
+
+Additionally, experimental Docker images are published to
+[Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/apache/kudu).
