What's new

  • CDP Private Cloud Base 7.1.7 introduces key new features to improve the management, security, and analytical capabilities of the platform and provides additional platform support. It is a cumulative maintenance release that carries forward the improvements from CDP Private Cloud Base 7.1.6 and prior releases.

    In addition to new features and platform support, an important goal of the last few releases has been to make the transition to CDP easier by adding more upgrade options. Below is a brief overview of the new features and improvements that were added in this release.

    Upgrade enhancements

    To help customers with their move to CDP Private Cloud Base, this release contains the following upgrade enhancements:

    • In-place upgrades are now available for Cloudera Distribution for Apache Hadoop ( CDH) versions 6.1.x, 6.2.x, and 6.3.x., completing the in-place upgrade vision from all supported CDH and Hortonworks Data Platform ( HDP) versions.
    • Documented rollback procedures are now available for CDH 6 to CDP Private Cloud Base 7.1.7 and for HDP 3 to CDH 7.1.6.
    • An upgrade companion complements existing upgrade documentation that guides you through your upgrade journey.

    General feature enhancements

    To further improve the management, security, and analytical capabilities of the platform, the following updates are in this release:

    • Several enhancements have been made to Cloudera Manager including security fixes and the removal of all CVEs across over 20 embedded libraries. These enhancements make version 7.1.7 the most secure release of CDP Private Cloud Base yet. Also added are new features and tools for improved platform efficiency and ease of use.
    • Many updates have been made to SDX for improved platform and data governance. These enhancements include a more secure method of authorizing Hive table creation, auditing HDFS superuser actions in Ranger, Atlas and Kafka integration, Impala Row Filtering, and many other features.
    • Data Warehouse enhancements include support for Ranger-based row-level filter policies in Impala. Row-level filters are similar to other Ranger access policies and can be set for specific users, groups, and conditions.

    These updates are some of the highlights of this release and not a comprehensive list of new features. See the CDP Private Cloud Base 7.1.7 Release Summary for the full list and details of these features.
