The Apache HAWQ (incubating) Project Team is proud to announce the release of Apache HAWQ 2.1.0.0-incubating.
This is a source code only release. ABOUT HAWQ Apache HAWQ (incubating) combines exceptional MPP-based analytics performance, robust ANSI SQL compliance, Hadoop ecosystem integration and manageability, and flexible data-store format support, all natively in Hadoop, no connectors required. Built from a decade’s worth of massively parallel processing (MPP) expertise developed through the creation of open source Greenplum® Database and PostgreSQL, HAWQ enables you to swiftly and interactively query Hadoop data, natively via HDFS. FEATURES AND ENHANCEMENTS INCLUDED IN THIS RELEASE - HAWQ Register enhancements and support for partition tables - The HAWQ Register command registers and loads data files into HAWQ internal tables using table metadata defined in a YAML configuration file. HAWQ register now supports loading and registering 1-level partition tables. - GPORCA upgrade - Many new features and bug fixes in the modular query optimizer are integrated with HAWQ. - ORC file format support is provided by a new PXF profile exposed in the PXF Hive plug-in, named HiveORC. The HiveORC profile supports access to data stored in ORC format through a Hive mapped table. - PXF predicate pushdown and column projection availability - HAWQ now makes available to the PXF service both the predicate (filter string) and the column projection information. With this feature, PXF plug-in developers can implement predicate pushdown for their custom plug-ins. - PXF now allows HCatalog/External Table queries to dynamically select the most optimal profile for query execution based on the underlying Hive file storage type. - Ongoing ground work for Apache Ranger integration - Fixes and enhancements on HAWQ Resource Manager, Interconnect, Query Execution, Dispatcher, Catalog, libhdfs3 and more.

Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
