TresholdFailureDetector

Release 0.80 on 2/18/2010
Changes made since 0.70.1:
* IMPORTANT: backwards compatibility between the client and server has
changed. A backwards incompatibility in the wire protocol was found
between releases 0.60 to 0.70.1 and releases prior to 0.60. We chose
to make 0.80 compatible with 0.57.1 and earlier versions, while
introducing an incompatibility with 0.60-0.70.1. What this means is
that if you're presently running 0.60 and higher, you would need to
upgrade the Voldemort jar files on *all* servers and clients.
* Upgraded the BDB storage engine to use BerkeleyDB-JE 4.0.92,
retaining ability to use BerkeleyDB-JE 3.3.* if desired. IMPORTANT:
if one switches from BerkeleyDB-JE 3.3.* to 4.0.92 they will be able
to access all of existing data. Once a switch has been made to
4.0.92 the data will not be readable by earlier versions of BDB. If
there's a chance that a roll back to 3.3.* might be needed, the best
course of action will be to make a backup of existing data
prior to upgrading.
Switching between 3.3.* and 4.0.* would also require rebuilding the
class files (e.g., by running "ant clean && ant release" after
replacing the BDB jar files).
* Compression support for read-only stores
* Increased the socket buffer size for transferring read-only
stores from Hadoop for improved performance over high-latency links
* NIO support for the Admin Service, including Streaming
Functionality
* Support for adding stores on the fly via the Admin
Service
* Fixed issue 209: Incorrect object passed to List.contains in
RebalanceUtils.getLatestCluster()
* Fixed issue 211: Unnecessary read repairs during getAll() with more
than one key
* Other enhancements: better CLI for rebalancing, throttling in
Admin Service is now based on all disk activity
Release 0.70.1 on 2/1/2010
Changes made since 0.70:
* Fixed issue 205: if no keys passed to getAll() were in partitions
undergoing rebalancing, proxyGetAll() would be called with an
empty list even if rebalancing wasn't happening
Release 0.70 on 1/27/2010
Changes made since 0.60.1:
* A beta of rebalancing (dynamic cluster expansion) support merged
into the main branch. See the project's wiki for more information:
http://wiki.github.com/voldemort/voldemort/voldemort-rebalancing
* New failure detector merged into the main branch:
http://wiki.github.com/voldemort/voldemort/failure-detection
* Beta mechanism for restoring all of node's data from replicas on
demand. This is an alternative to a more gradual mechanism provided
by read-repair: useful when a machine is down for a prolonged period
and is then re-inserted into the cluster.
Invoked via JMX: the operation is restoreDataFromReplication in the
voldemort.server.VoldemortServer MBean, with a mandatory parameter
(integer >= 1) indicating the number of transfers to do in parallel.
* Simple gossip protocol (for cluster metadata) merged
into the main branch. Disabled by default: use "enable.gossip=true"
to enable, use "gossip.interval.ms" to set an interval at which gossip
occurs (default: 30000 i.e., 30 seconds).
* Fixed issue 190: add a way of aggregating performance data over
all stores
* Fixed issue 181: stack trackes shouldn't be filled for Obsolete
version exception
Release 0.60.1 on 12/18/2009
Minor changes made since 0.60:
* Better logging in the exception thrown if config/.temp and
config/.version are copied
* Bumping up the version to 0.60.1 in order to release updated
archives, fixing an error in the stores.xml for single_node_cluster
sample config
Release 0.60 on 12/15/2009
Changes made since 0.57.1:
* Admin Client/Server API: adds support for streaming-based transfer
of entries between nodes, deleting entries on remote nodes,
remotely deleting and updating metadata
* EC2 testing: a way to periodically run integration and performance
tests which involve Voldemort instances on different machines
* Experimental support for views
* Interpolation search for read-only stores
* Support for large lists and strings in the JSON serializer
* LZF compression support
* Ruby client contributed
* Fixed issue 170: hanging if a port is used by another process
* Fixed issue 122: suspicious integer division in
RequestCounter.getThroughput
* Miscellaneous improvements and bug fixes for read-only stores
* Fixed issue 168: added StorageEngine.keys()
Release 0.57.1 on 11/27/2009

to value-serializer or key-serializer sections in stores.xml)
* Added a resource pool/socket pool implementation (no longer using
commons-pool)
* Added server-side NIO support (enabled by setting
