The fourth HBase 1.5.0 release candidate (RC3) is available for download at https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/hbase/hbase-1.5.0RC3/ and Maven artifacts are available in the temporary repository https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachehbase-1292/
The git tag corresponding to the candidate is '1.5.0RC3’ (b0bc7225c5). A detailed source and binary compatibility report for this release is available for your review at https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/hbase/hbase-1.5.0RC3/compat-check-report.html . A list of the 115 issues resolved in this release can be found at https://s.apache.org/K4Wk . The 1.5.0 changelog is derived from the changelog of the last branch-1.4 release, 1.4.9. Please try out the candidate and vote +1/0/-1. The vote will be open for at least 72 hours. Unless objection I will try to close it Friday April 12, 2019 if we have sufficient votes. Prior to making this announcement I made the following preflight checks: RAT check passes (7u80) Unit test suite passes (7u80, 8u181)* Opened the UI in a browser, poked around LTT load 100M rows with 100% verification and 20% updates (8u181) ITBLL 1B rows with slowDeterministic monkey (8u181) ITBLL 1B rows with serverKilling monkey (8u181) There are known flaky tests. See HBASE-21904 and HBASE-21905. These flaky tests do not represent serious test failures that would prevent a release. -- Best regards, Andrew
