Thanks Aljoscha! Just one question: is there any upgrade guideline?

Or is the upgrade from 1.3.1 to 1.4 almost frictionless?

Congratulations! Awesome work.
Two quick questions about the HDFS free feature. 

I am using S3 to store checkpoints, savepoints, and I know it is being done through hadoop-aws.

- Do I have to include a hadoop-aws jar in my flatjar AND flink's lib directory to make it work for 1.4? Both or just the lib directory?
- Am I free to choose the latest version of hadoop-aws?

Thanks a lot Aljoscha for being the release manager and to the whole Flink community for this release :-)

@Vishal: flink-cep/flink-connector were deployed to maven central. It just might take a while until they show up I guess.

Cheers,

Till

Hi,

@Flavio, I think the update should be frictionless. At the end of the release post are some notes and only if you would be affected by this do you have to change something.

@Hao Sun Are you using that on EMR? I think in that case you don't have to include anything. If not, it might be that you have to include them with your program. There is also another (new) alternative of using the new bundled S3 filesystems of Flink. That's documented here: https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.4/ops/filesystems.html#built-in-file-systems

@Vishal I think all dependencies should be on Maven Central but it can take some time for everything to sync to all mirrors.

Best,

Aljoscha
