[#1]

Hi Everyone, 

Currently we are at 5.16.2 CDH version and planning to upgrade to 6.2.1. I'm searching for the notable changes from the current version to the new version, but cannot find any. can anyone provide the notable changes from 5.16.2 to 6.2.1. Does CDH 6.2.X supports erasure coding??

Thanks,

RV.

@raghu9raghavend For the new features and changes the best doc is the release document. There you can find pretty much all the info within sub pages.[1]

For your 2nd question, Yes CDH 6.2.X supports erasure coding[2].
