Release 393-e LTS (31 Aug 2022)#

Starburst Enterprise platform (SEP) 393-e is the follow up release to the 392-e STS release and the 380-e LTS release.

This release is a long term support (LTS) release.

The 393-e release includes all improvements from the following Trino project releases:

It contains all improvements from the Starburst Enterprise releases since 380-e LTS:

Highlights since 380-e#

  • Update to Java 17, improving general performance and efficiency.

  • Full CRUD feature support added to the Iceberg connector.

  • Add support for Iceberg version 2.

  • Add support for MERGE to several connectors, including Delta Lake, Hive, and Iceberg.

  • Add support for explicit deny policies in Built-in access control privileges.

  • Fault-tolerant execution is now available in public preview.

  • Add support for OAuth 2.0 refresh tokens.

Breaking changes since 380-e#

  • SEP requires Java 17 as runtime version. The scope of the necessary changes varies on your deployment method and usage of SEP, including connectors, authentication type, security integrations and other components. Thoroughly review the dedicated migration guide to determine necessary steps.

  • Renamed the optimizer.join_partitioned_build_min_row_count configuration property to optimizer.join-partitioned-build-min-row-count, which no longer accepts negative values.

  • Remove support for Kubernetes 1.18.

  • Remove support for MapR-based Hive metastore as well as the MapR filesystem.

  • The release adds a new target catalog parameter to the cloneDataProduct endpoint of the data products API. This new parameter is mandatory, which breaks existing configurations that use this endpoint.

  • If you enable snowflake.database-prefix-for-schema.enabled, any existing queries must be updated to replace schema in the fully-qualified name with "database.schema" in double-quotes. Failure to do so results in an error when the query is run.

  • The optimizer.enable-starburst-optimizer-rules property is now defunct and must be removed from config.properties if configured. Failure to do so results in the cluster failing to start. Extended Starburst optimizer properties are now enabled on all clusters.

  • The catalogname.wait-for-dynamic-filters catalog property is now defunct, and must be removed from your catalog properties files to avoid the cluster failing to start. JDBC-based connectors wait for dynamic filters collection by default. The catalogname.dynamic-filtering.wait-timeout property can be used to change the default behavior.

  • The JMX table containing metrics related to dynamic filtering for JDBC based connectors is now jmx.current."io.trino.plugin.jdbc:name=catalogname,type=dynamicfilteringstats".

  • Validation was added to data products to ensure that dataset names are SQL compliant. Datasets with an invalid name do not refresh until the name is updated to be SQL compliant.

  • The teradata.query-pass-through.enabled catalog configuration property is now deprecated, as the current configuration is considered legacy and may be removed in a future release. Existing configurations that use this property must either remove it or rename the property to deprecated.teradata.query-pass-through.enabled or the cluster does not start.

  • The http-server.authentication.oauth2.auth-url, http-server.authentication.oauth2.jwks-url, and http-server.authentication.oauth2.token-url authentication properties are deprecated.
