JBoss Cache 3.2.0 Malagueta just released!

Another major JBoss Cache release: say hello to Malagueta!

While this is primarily a bug fix release, I have decided to bump up the minor version number (3.1.x -> 3.2.x) due to library compatibility. JBoss Cache 3.1.x could only support JGroups up to and equalling 2.6.x. Due to dependence on certain JGroups classes, 3.1.x will not work with newer JGroups releases (such as JGroups 2.8.x).

JBoss Cache 3.2.0 adds the ability to work with both JGroups 2.6.x as well as 2.8.x and beyond, and as such is more future-proof. Visit JIRA for a full changelog of issues addressed in this release. Downloads and documentation are in the usual places.

Enjoy!

JBoss Cache 3.1.0 Cascabel in final release

I've just released JBoss Cache 3.1.0.GA, codenamed Cascabel. The big feature in this release is non-blocking state transfer, which allows for state to be transferred to new joiners in a cluster without freezing the cluster. I blogged about non-blocking state transfer some months ago, here.

Other changes include some critical bug fixes such as JBCACHE-1490, JBCACHE-1496, JBCACHE-1507 and JBCACHE-1508. New features - in addition to non-blocking state transfer - include a new lock-per-Fqn scheme for MVCC, which provides greater concurrency than the striped lock mechanism at the cost of memory usage and a slight performance hit.

The complete list of JIRAs addressed is here.

Downloads, documentation, etc are all in the usual place.

Enjoy!
