MariaDB is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the MariaDB Connector/Java 3.5.1 release.
Release Notes and Changelogs
MariaDB Connector/Java 3.5.1
Notable items in this release include:
- PARSEC Authentication
- Support of the PARSEC Authentication Plugin which is provided starting with MariaDB Server 11.6
- New High Availability Mode With Loadbalancing For Reads
- When running a multi-master cluster (i.e. MariaDB Cluster with Galera), writing to more than one node can lead to optimistic locking errors (“deadlocks”) in some use cases. Writing concurrently to multiple nodes also doesn’t result in performance improvements, due to having to synchronously replicate to all nodes. The new high availability mode “Load-balance-read” permits the use of masters in a failover manner (try first master, the next one if the first master fails) while distributing the load on replicas.
- Permit bulk for INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE commands for MariaDB Server 11.5 and later
- Fixes for various issues
