Apache Kafka
Kafka Streams Now Supported
Kafka Streams is now officially supported. Kafka Streams is fully integrated with platform services like Ranger and Schema Registry and supports secure/unsecure clusters.
Security
- Simplified access control management with support for prefixed ACLs for bulk management of entities. Access control for topic creation for specific topics/topic prefix.
- Hostname verification to prevent SSL configuration man in the middle attacks.
- Improved Encryption support with faster TLS and CRC32C implementations. Over-the-wire encryption is faster.
- Simpler security configuration with SSL trust stores update without broker restart and security for Zookeeper listeners can be configured before starting brokers.
Reliability
- Quota limit notifications to distinguish network errors from quota limits reached.
- Better broker resiliency by reducing memory footprint of message down conversion.
- Replication protocol improvements for fixing log divergence during fast leader failover.
Performance
- Prevent indefinite consumer block with new configuration options.
- Windowed aggregation performance in Kafka streams vastly improved.
Apache Atlas
- Support for icons in lineage graph by type of entity (for example, Apache Hive tables, Apache Kafka topics, etc.).
- Filtering of lineage UI to exclude deleted entities and excluding process entities as an option.
- Support for expanding lineage graph in UI to different number of hops (3, 6, 9, 12, etc.).
- Various performance and stabilization fixes.
Apache Ranger
- Support Apache Kafka 2.0 in Kafka Ranger Plugin.
- Support 'DelegationToken' resource type with 'Describ' operation for Kafka.
- Support for cluster resource type for Kafka.
- Support for Create operation with Topic resource in Kafka.
Apache Hive
Features
- Read and write Apache Kafka topics via Kafka Storage Handler.
- Accelerating joins between Druid table and Hive table by runtime filtering of Druid tables using bloom filters constructed on Hive tables.
Performance
- Exploiting constraints to generate efficient query plan.
- Improvements in stat system to generate better query plans.
- Improvements in Map join vectorization and filter expressions.
Stability
- JDBCStorageHandler improvements for MySQL and Postgres.
