The Apache Accumulo project is pleased to announce the release of Apache Accumulo Access 1.0.0-beta2.
Accumulo Access is a standalone java library that provides the same functionality, semantics, and syntax, as the access controls that power the cell-level security in existing releases of Apache Accumulo. It provides superior performance compared to Accumulo's existing ColumnVisibility and VisibilityEvaluator implementations, and avoids dependencies that could conflict with existing project dependencies, to make integration with other projects easy. This project includes the core library, an example application, a JMH benchmark, a formal specification of the AccessExpression syntax, and an equivalent ANTLRv4 grammar with its own corresponding example. This is the second beta release, as we refine the API and features, and work to integrate it into future Accumulo releases. *** Apache Accumulo® is a sorted, distributed key/value store that provides robust, scalable data storage and retrieval. With Apache Accumulo, users can store and manage large data sets across a cluster. Accumulo uses Apache Hadoop's HDFS to store its data and Apache ZooKeeper for consensus. This version is now available in Maven Central, and at: https://accumulo.apache.org/downloads/ The issues and pull requests corresponding with this release can be viewed at: https://github.com/apache/accumulo-access/milestone/2
