ODP 3.3.6.3-1, 3.2.3.5-2, and 3.2.3.5-3 are now available

Acceldata's Open Data Platform (ODP) is designed to facilitate the modernization of big data environments in both on-premises and hybrid deployments by integrating core open-source technologies. The recent ODP releases, 3.3.6.3-1 and 3.2.3.5-2/3, focus on providing a secure and flexible foundation to help teams upgrade their Java Development Kit (JDK) versions, with JDK 17 and JDK 11 certifications, enhancing security and secret management through standardized password encryption and improved S3-backed reliability for Hive and Hadoop. The updates include scalable orchestration with Airflow through Redis integration, multi-node support, and support for multiple Spark 3 and Livy 3 minor versions within the same environment. Additionally, a technical preview of a Ranger extension for AWS-S3 is introduced, alongside an upgrade to Apache Pinot v1.4.0 for better performance and operational improvements in real-time analytics. These enhancements aim to provide a cleaner modernization path, reduce upgrade risks, and offer greater flexibility and reliability in managing enterprise data environments.
