This release was inspired by user complaints:
Special notes about version number and backward compatibility: This release breaks backward compatibility, that is why the major version was increased. 6.0.0
version is used instead of 5.0.0
because 5.0.0
is already reserved for release form 5.0
branch.
Backward compatibility has been broken in the following points:
replaceConfiguration
method now accepts an additional parameter.- If you use native serialization for Hazelcast or Infinispan then binary serialized data is not compatible between
4.6.0
and5.0.0
, zero-downtime deployment can not be used in such use-case.
