As many of you have already heard, the Polaris repository is now open source under the Apache License 2. The announcement mentions “The team at Dremio is excited to help bring the various functions and capabilities of Nessie into the Polaris project.”. Let me elaborate on what this means for now and the foreseeable future.
Caches are there to improve performance by holding the results of expensive operations and make those quickly available. In this post we explain a recent improvement coming in the next Nessie release 0.83.0.
We are happy to announce that Nessie now supports MariaDB and MySQL as backends. This is a significant milestone for Nessie, as it opens up new possibilities for Nessie users.
A big thank you to Vayuj Rajan for his contribution to this feature!
Dear Project Nessie and Apache Iceberg communities,
We’re proud to announce that we will soon integrate the Apache Iceberg REST spec into open-source Nessie! With this integration, you’ll be able to use any client that supports the Iceberg REST spec with Nessie. We plan to roll out this new capability in the next few weeks.
There is a new CLI tool for Nessie, replacing the old Python based CLI.
