Highlights

  • Add support for DEFINER and INVOKER view security models.
  • Add support for caching Glue metastore in Hive connector.
  • Add Pinot SQL endpoint support.

Details

General Changes

  • Fix incorrect results from :func:!classification_miss_rate, :func:!classification_fall_out (:pr:14740).
  • Fix error in /v1/thread end point.
  • Fix an issue where the property ignore_stats_calculator_failures would not be honored for certain queries.
  • Fix missing query completion events for queries which fail prior to executing.
  • Fix potential performance regression when setting use_legacy_scheduler is set to false.
  • Optimize queries with repeated expressions in filters or projections by computing the common expressions only once. This can be disabled by the session property optimize_common_sub_expressions.
  • Optimize queries containing only :func:!min and :func:!max on columns that can be evaluated using metadata (e.g., Hive partitions). This is controlled by configuration property optimizer.optimize-metadata-queries and session property optimize_metadata_queries. Note: Enabling this optimization might change query result if there are metadata that refers to empty data, see :pr:14845 for examples.
  • Add aggregation function :func:!set_union.
  • Add local disk spilling support for queries with ORDER BY or DISTINCT.
  • Add new unified grouped execution configuration property grouped-execution-enabled and session property grouped_execution with default set to true. The property grouped-execution-for-join-enabled will be removed in a future release (:pr:14886).
  • Remove experimental feature to perform grouped execution for eligible table scans and its associated configuration property experimental.grouped-execution-for-eligible-table-scans and session property grouped_execution_for_eligible_table_scans.
  • Enable dynamic-schedule-for-grouped-execution by default. This property will be removed in a future release.
  • Enable grouped-execution-for-aggregation-enabled by default. This property will be removed in a future release.
  • Enable async page transport with non-blocking IO for exchange by default. This can be disabled by setting the configuration property exchange.async-page-transport-enabled to false.

Security Changes

  • Add support for DEFINER and INVOKER view security modes. While querying a view the former uses the permissions of the view owner and the latter uses the query runner's permissions. See :doc:/sql/create-view.

JDBC Changes

  • Implemented DatabaseMetaData#getClientInfoProperties API.

Web UI Changes

  • Fix worker thread snapshot UI to correctly display the stack trace.

Hive Changes

  • Add support for caching the Glue metastore.
  • Add support for warning on unfiltered partition keys. This can be enabled using the configuration property partition-keys-to-warn-on-no-filtering.

Elasticsearch Changes

  • Add connector configuration elasticsearch.max-http-connections to control maximum number of persistent connections to Elasticsearch.
  • Add connector configuration elasticsearch.http-thread-count to control the number of threads handling HTTP connections to Elasticsearch.
  • Add support for numeric keyword.
  • Add support for composite publish_address (:pr:14811).

Pinot Changes

  • Add Pinot SQL endpoint support.
  • Add support to pushdown DistinctLimitNode to Pinot Query in SQL mode.

SPI Changes

  • Move DistinctLimitNode to presto-spi module for connectors to push down.
