I'm pleased to announce the release of Apache Iceberg 1.4.2! Apache Iceberg is an open table format for huge analytic datasets. Iceberg delivers high query performance for tables with tens of petabytes of data, along with atomic commits, concurrent writes, and SQL-compatible table evolution.
This release can be downloaded from: https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/iceberg/apache-iceberg-1.4.2/apache-iceberg-1.4.2.tar.gz Java artifacts are available from Maven Central. It is highly encouraged to upgrade to 1.4.2. For context, due to a bug in 1.4.0, metadata files may be produced with invalid split offsets that are used during the scanning phase. Data correctness is not impacted, but scans may fail with an error like the following: *java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: length (-231759092) cannot be smaller than -1* Upgrading to 1.4.2 will ensure these failures do not occur in case of invalid split offsets.
