COD now displays notifications about all the major events on the COD UI. For example, auto-scaling events, auto-healing events, and alerting notifications. The UI notifications is a major step in providing enough information on COD UI so that you do not need to navigate to multiple internal systems used by COD to get the required information as well as be aware of the events happening in the system on an immediate basis.   This is available starting in COD v1.23 and you do not need to upgrade to a higher version of COD to benefit from this feature.   Try out CDP Operational Database for free with Test Drive (no cloud account or setup is needed). ...

Certain countries may have regulatory requirements that limit or forbid specific types of data from being sent or stored outside of the country or region where an organization operates. For this reason Cloudera has introduced new regions in which the Control Plane can run. By choosing a region other than us-west-1, you can ensure that sensitive metadata (such as information about CDP users) does not leave its region or country of origin. For more information, see  CDP Control Plane regions.   This is available starting in COD v1.22 and you do not need to upgrade to a higher version of COD to benefit from this feature.   Try out CDP Operational Database for free with Test Drive (no cloud account or setup is needed). ...

COD ensures high availability and fault tolerance using Multi-AZ deployments. A Multi-AZ deployment means that compute infrastructure for HBase’s master and region servers are distributed across multiple AZs ensuring that when a single availability zone has an outage, only a portion of Region Servers is impacted and clients automatically switch over to the remaining servers in the available AZs. Multi-AZ for COD is currently supported only on Amazon Web Services ( AWS ) environments. For more information, see  Multi-AZ deployment on COD.   This is available starting in COD v1.22 and you do not need to upgrade to a higher version of COD to benefit from this feature.   Try out CDP Operational Database for free with Test Drive (no cloud account or setup is needed). ...

Store File Tracking ( SFT ) defines a separate, plugable layer to handle storefile life cycle, and includes the FILE based built-in implementation that avoids internal file rename or move operations while managing the storefiles. This is a critical enablement to deploy HBase over S3 object store, which is known for the lack of atomic renames. COD enables this feature by default for databases deployed on AWS with S3, to mitigate the aforementioned S3 limitation that could cause critical issues for HBase. For more information, see HBase Store File Tracking.   This is available starting in COD v1.22 and you do not need to upgrade to a higher version of COD to benefit from this feature.   Try out CDP Operational Database for free with Test Drive (no cloud account or setup is needed). ...
