The HBase team is happy to announce the immediate availability of Apache
HBase 2.0.6. This also happens to be the last release we will make off

circumstance.

Apache HBase is an open-source, distributed, versioned, non-relational

rows with millions of columns atop non-specialized hardware. To learn more

HBase 2.0.6 is the latest (and last) release on the HBase 2.0 line,
continuing
on the theme of bringing a stable, reliable database to the Apache Big Data
ecosystem and beyond.  It includes 122 fixes since 2.0.5, ~ release at the
end of March, 2019.
