+
+We are glad to announce the release of Apache Gravitino 1.1.1! This is a patch
release that focuses on stability, correctness, and performance improvements.
It includes bug fixes across the core server, authorization, Iceberg REST,
Spark connector, OAuth, and various catalog implementations.
+
+## Improvements
+
+### Core & Server
+ - **Cache**: Cache non-existent relational data to avoid repeated backend
lookups on missing entities.
[#9799](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9799)
+ - **Performance**: Reduce the number of `catalogInUse` calls on the server
hot path. [#9474](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9474)
+ - **Metadata API**: Support `batchGet` for metadata objects to reduce
round-trips. [#9893](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9893)
+ - **Managed entities**: Include lakehouse-generic catalogs in managed
entities for proper drop behavior.
[#9490](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9490)
+ - **Error handling**: Preserve the post-hook exception when rollback fails,
so the original error is not swallowed.
[#10217](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/10217)
+ - **Partition API**: Include partition path parameter in `getPartition`
error messages for easier debugging.
[#10175](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/10175)
+
+### Authorization
+ - **Performance**: Avoid authorization-plugin overhead when the plugin is
not configured. [#9170](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9170)
+ - **Performance**: Convert Jcasbin internal map to a cache to speed up
permission lookups. [#9770](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9770)
+ - **Batch authorization**: Support preloading table metadata in batch
metadata authorization. [#9802](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9802)
+
+### Iceberg REST Server
+ - **Performance**: Improve the performance of loading tables by reducing
redundant HMS calls. [#9765](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9765)
+ - **Cache**: Optimize the catalog wrapper and entity cache expiry strategy.
[#9782](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9782)
+ - **Rename**: Support renaming a table across different namespaces in the
Gravitino Iceberg catalog.
[#9571](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9571)
+
+### Lance REST Server
+ - **Column operations**: Support drop and rename column for Lance tables.
[#9113](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9113)
+ - **Empty table**: Refine the concept of `createEmptyTable` in Lance REST
for clearer semantics. [#9520](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9520)
+ - **Statistics**: Add `maxStatisticsPerUpdate` configuration for Lance
partition storage. [#9650](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9650)
+ - **Helm**: Add a complete Lance REST server Helm chart.
[#9403](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9403)
+
+### Common
+ - **Version parsing**: Enhance version parsing to support release candidate
tags with validation. [#9482](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9482)
+ - **Code quality**: Refactor to reduce duplicated code across modules.
[#9294](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9294)
+ - **Logging**: Update log4j2 configuration for Iceberg/Lance REST servers.
[#9547](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9547)
+ - **Build**: Add MCP-server changes handling in build workflow.
[#9921](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/9921)
+ - **Build**: Remove release task and centralize JDK 8 compatibility
handling. [#10262](https://github.com/apache/gravitino/issues/10262)
