Any news about CDH 5.8?

[#1]

CDH 5.8 seems to be on the horizon, according to the recent Hue blog.  Can the good company folks provide some heads-up about the rough release date, and the main feature set?  This will be very helpful for our planning purpose, as we are considering upgrade to 5.7.

Thanks!

We can't provide a firm date (nor feature list) due to the always present possibility of slippage, but keep in mind that we do three minor releases per year. So, it's easy enough to use the calendar to arrive at an estimate.

Where can we find the release notes?

Thanks

Current release notes always here:

5.8 is not yet available (will be so very soon, though).

I was referring to the following link

Cloudera Enterprise 5.8 is now generally available. https://www.cloudera.com/products/whats-new.html

You just found a bug; that page was updated prematurely and will be rolled back. 5.8 will be released very, very soon though.
