Summary

Aerospike Database 6.2 is now generally available, allowing deployment on AWS Graviton2 processors, significantly reducing the total cost of ownership and maintaining its best cost-performance ratio in the field. The new release enables Aerospike server to run on ARMv8.2-A instruction sets and existing x86-64-v2 microarchitecture level processors. A new package naming convention has been introduced for non-x86_64 architectures, requiring adjustments to CI/CD scripts. Developers can now deploy Aerospike in their environments regardless of hardware or operating system, using Docker or native clients for ARM64 macOS. The Aerospike Tools 8.0.0 release includes a native macOS tools package for Apple M1/M2 hardware and a standalone package, with AQL release 8.0.0 separating data browsing from administration.
