The Apache Geode community is pleased to announce the availability of Apache Geode 1.14.0
Apache Geode is a data management platform that provides a database-like consistency model, reliable transaction processing and a shared-nothing architecture to maintain very low latency performance with high concurrency processing. This release includes a significant number of bug fixes, improvements in current behavior along with the addition of a few statistics to monitor the cluster health. Few notable changes are: 1. The creation of OQL indexes now works on sub-regions. 2. Proper exceptions are thrown when a region is destroyed during function execution. 3. Daemon threads are now used while rebalancing regions. 4. Gateway receivers can be configured with the same hostname-for-senders and port. The reason for such a setup is deploying a Geode cluster on a Kubernetes cluster where all GW receivers are reachable from the outside world on the same IP and port. 5. Disk stores are recovered in parallel during cluster restarts. 6. New option in GFSH command "start gateway sender" to control clearing of existing queues. 7. New member field added in OQL query GFSH command to point to the member on which the query will be executed. 8. No more ConcurrentModificationException when using JTA transactions. 9. Setting SNI server name is now not needed if endpoint verification is disabled. 10. A new REST interface for disk-store creation has been introduced. 11. GFSH command to create defined indexes now works if connected to a new locator which joined the cluster after indexes were defined. 12. Session state modules dependencies were cleaned up and made more efficient. 13. Limited retries while trying to create Lucene indexes to prevent stack overflow issues. 14. A new statistic was added to get the heap memory occupied by the gateway sender's queue. 15. maximum-time-between-pings set when creating a gateway receiver is now honored instead of being ignored. 16. Deadlocks are prevented when java garbage collection and tombstone collection occur simultaneously. 17. 'conserve-sockets' default value is now set to false when the members are started. 18. Slower receivers with async-distribution-timeout greater than 0 are now not allowed with cluster TLS/SSL. 19. Clients trying to register interest in an older version server will now receive a ServerRefusedConnectionException. 20. The speed of registering interest during rolling upgrades has been improved. 21. A new feature was added to print out the tenured heap in the log files after garbage collection. 22. Bucket statistics were fixed.
