Release date for Solr 6.0

[Ben Earley <bd...@gmail.com>]

Hi there,

My team has been using Solr 4 on a large distributed system and we are
interested in upgrading to Solr 6 when the new version is released to
leverage some of the new features, such as graph queries.  Is anyone able
to provide any insight as to the release schedule for this new version?

Thanks,

Ben Earley

JRE 1.8.  The JDK is not required unless you want to build Solr from source.

Thanks,

Congratulations. 

Does this release mandate minimum JDK 1.8?

Thanks

Hi Ben,

The vote for 6.0 just passed about an hour ago and it should just a matter
of at the most 3-4 days depending on the availability of the release
manager before the artifacts are published to all mirrors and the official
note is sent out.

Do you need to preserve your index data or are you able to fully re-index
all data from scratch? If the former, you will need to upgrade from 4 to 5
first, then force a full optimize to fully upgrade all index segments to 5
format, and then upgrade from 5 to 6. In fact, if you had originally
upgraded from 3 to 4, you may need to force a full optimize on 4 to assure
that any lingering old 3 format index segments are in 4 format.
