The Lucene PMC is pleased to announce the release of Apache Lucene 10.0.0.

Apache Lucene is a high-performance, full-featured search engine
library written entirely in Java. It is a technology suitable for
nearly any application that requires structured search, full-text
search, faceting, nearest-neighbor search across high-dimensionality
vectors, spell correction or query suggestions.

This release contains numerous bug fixes, optimizations, and
improvements, some of which are highlighted below. The release is
available for immediate download at:

  <https://lucene.apache.org/core/downloads.html>

### Lucene 10.0.0 Release Highlights:

#### System requirements
 * Lucene 10.0 requires JDK 21 or newer

#### API changes
 * KNN vector values now have a random-access API.
 * Deprecated APIs have been removed and a number of API changes have
been made. Please consult the migrate guide for an extensive list and
actions to take to migrate to 10.0.

#### New Features
 * A new IndexInput#prefetch API has been added, allowing query
evaluation logic to let the Directory know about regions of data that
are about to be read. This helps perform I/O concurrently under the
hood. MMapDirectory implements this API using the madvise system call
and the MADV_WILLNEED flag on Linux and Mac OS.
 * Lucene now supports sparse indexing on doc values via
FieldType#setDocValuesSkipIndexType. The sparse index will record the
minimum and maximum values per block of doc IDs. Used in conjunction
with index sorting to cluster similar documents together, this allows
for very space-efficient and CPU-efficient filtering.
 * Search concurrency is now decoupled from the index geometry, so
that an index can be searched using any number of threads, regardless
of its number of segments.
 * Kmeans clustering on vectors

#### Improvements
 * Lucene now opens files with the MADV_RANDOM advice by default on
Linux and Mac OS. This results in better efficiency for indexes that
exceed the size of the page cache, but can make it slower to load
indexes in the page cache. It is possible to revert to the MADV_NORMAL
read advice by default by passing
-Dorg.apache.lucene.store.defaultReadAdvice=NORMAL as a JVM startup
flag.
 * Snowball dictionaries have been upgraded, resulting in improved
tokenization. This may require reindexing to ensure consistency of
search results with pre-10.0 indexes.

... plus a multitude of helpful bug fixes!
