Hi all, As the version 2.2.0 is marked stable and is available for general release, is version 1.x series deprecated now ?
As a Hadoop user, should I assume that the version 1.x series is not going to be updated with newer updates e.g., newer versions of HDFS. If that is going to be the case, can it be marked as deprecated in the website. Personally, I would have preferred the continuation of version 1.x series due to its simplicity, as YARN tries to encompass things beyond mapreduce and Hadoop has so far been about running mapreduce jobs. Also, is there any possibility that there would be resource management features added to the Hadoop 1.x series with its jobtracker/tasktracker model (maybe backported from YARN) or is the 1.x series not even considered for those types of features and now has been completely abandoned. Please excuse me if some of the points are not relevant or important. I was just curious about the status of 1.x series as I have been using it for quite a while now. thanks, Hari
