The Apache Hop PMC and community are pleased to announce the general availability of Apache Hop 2.9.0. This 2.9.0 release is the result of a massive effort by the Apache Hop community and contains about two months of work on more than 80 tickets.
The Hop Orchestration Platform, or Apache Hop, aims to facilitate all aspects of data and metadata orchestration. Hop is an open source data integration platform that is easy to use, fast and flexible. Hop aims to be the future of data integration. Visual development enables developers to be more productive than they can be through code. Our Design once, run anywhere workflows and pipelines can be designed in the Hop Gui and run on the Hop native engine (local or remote), or on Spark, Flink, Google Dataflow or AWS EMR through Beam. Lifecycle Management enables developers and administrators to switch between projects, environments and purposes without leaving your train of thought. A number of highlights in the 2.9.0 release are: * a new static schema metadata type and schema mapping transform * a new CrateDB database dialect and CrateDB bulk loader transform * lots of bug fixes and small improvements * new and improved documentation * new and improved translations * community growth The release is available for immediate download at: https://hop.apache.org/download/ For more details please take a look at the release announcement at: https://hop.apache.org/blog/2024/05/hop-2.9.0/ Thanks to all involved, Bart Maertens on behalf of the Apache Hop PMC
