Percona Server for MongoDB 3.0.7-1.0 is now available

Percona is pleased to announce the GA release of Percona Server for MongoDB 3.0.7-1.0 on December 14, 2015. Download the latest version from the Percona web site or from the Percona Software Repositories.

Percona Server for MongoDB is an enhanced, open source, fully compatible, highly scalable, zero-maintenance downtime database supporting the MongoDB v3.0 protocol and drivers. Based on MongoDB 3.0.7, it extends MongoDB with MongoRocks and PerconaFT storage engines, as well as features like external authentication and audit logging. Percona Server for MongoDB requires no changes to MongoDB applications or code.

 

NOTE: The MongoRocks engine included in this release is based on RocksDB 4.0.0. For more information, see the RocksDB changelog.

 

New Features:

• Percona TokuBackup is an integrated open-source hot backup system for MongoDB servers running the PerconaFT storage engine (including Percona Server for MongoDB)
• Concurrency optimization for lock-managed storage engines, such as PerconaFT. Pre-locking document ranges on index scans greatly improves performance of such engines.

• BLD-331: Fixed the service mongod stop command for Debian.
• BLD-332: Fixed logic for percona-server-mongodb-helper.sh script to correctly handle Transparent Huge Pages.
• BLD-343: Added the postrm script with appropriate logic to handle proper data files removal when running apt-get purge.

• FT-684: Implemented a logical row count mechanism to make the estimated number of rows reflect the actual number of rows in heavily used tables

• FT-690: Fixed reserved_filenum overflow
• FT-692: Added a dummy field to make sizeof(DB_LSN) equal in C and C++
• FT-699: Added and replaced field initializers that caused build fails
• FT-702: Replaced the ZERO_COND_INITIALIZER definition with an empty brace pair intializer to stop build fails
• Fixed memory leak due to data race in context status initialization
