We are excited to announce the release of Alluxio 2.7.4! This is an edge release for Alluxio open source on top of Alluxio 2.7.3, with a variety of bug fixes, documentation, and improvements.
HIGHLIGHTS
We added a strong PropertyType in PropertyKey (4f78836), which will enforce property key type for all property keys, and validate values when they are set rather than retrieved. By doing so, we’re able to store values in the expected format which will make the get operations become more efficient.
We added multi-disk support (31ba1c) and in-heap cache support (d102512) for the local cache.
We also fixed a bunch of flaky tests and improved our documentation and metrics.
