The Pig team is happy to announce the Pig 0.13.0 release. Apache Pig provides a high-level data-flow language and execution framework for parallel computation on Hadoop clusters. More details about Pig can be found at http://pig.apache.org/.
This release includes several new features such as pluggable execution engines (to allow pig run on non-mapreduce engines in future), auto-local mode (to jobs with small input data size to run in-process), fetch optimization (to improve interactiveness of grunt), fixed counters for local-mode, support for user level jar cache, support for blacklisting and whitelisting pig commands. This also includes several performance fixes and debuggability features. A few non-backwards compatible interface modifications have been introduced in this release to make pig work with non-mapreduce engines (eg- PigProgressNotificationListener). You can find complete list of changes in CHANGES.txt. The details of the release can be found at http://pig.apache.org/releases.html.
