What is Apache Iceberg?

Iceberg 1.12 drops Spark 3.4 and starts laying groundwork for the v4 table spec.

Apache Iceberg maintains several minor lines at once, and most visible work is backports and dependency updates. 1.12.0 on September 30 is broader: it removes Spark 3.4 support, adds V4 groundwork such as relative paths in the spec and Parquet or Avro manifests, adds a REST unregister-table endpoint and content stats in the spec, and writes shredded Variant from Flink. Kafka Connect now reports commit failures instead of swallowing them.

What is ManageEngine Log360?

Log360's September build fixes the migration to the unified console.

ManageEngine Log360 is consolidating its components into Unified Log360, with a PPM in June that lets standalone deployments migrate. Builds since then mix security fixes, including an unauthenticated collector registration bypass and an authentication bypass in August, with marketplace extensions for CrowdStrike, Okta and Bitdefender. Build 13073 in September is a set of hotfixes for migration problems: failed dashboard migrations, IAM errors after login, and notification settings not saving.

Apache Iceberg vs ManageEngine Log360: editorial side-by-side

A0.0

Iceberg 1.12 drops Spark 3.4 and starts laying groundwork for the v4 table spec.

◆ Current state

Apache Iceberg maintains several minor lines at once, and most visible work is backports and dependency updates. 1.12.0 on September 30 is broader: it removes Spark 3.4 support, adds V4 groundwork such as relative paths in the spec and Parquet or Avro manifests, adds a REST unregister-table endpoint and content stats in the spec, and writes shredded Variant from Flink. Kafka Connect now reports commit failures instead of swallowing them.

◆ Where it's heading

The project is moving from maintenance-only releases back to spec work, with V4 pieces landing in stages. Older engine versions are being dropped as that happens.

◆ Prediction

Expect more V4 spec and core pieces in 1.13 and patch releases on 1.11 and 1.12; a V4 release date is not visible in the entries.

M0.0

Log360's September build fixes the migration to the unified console.

◆ Current state

ManageEngine Log360 is consolidating its components into Unified Log360, with a PPM in June that lets standalone deployments migrate. Builds since then mix security fixes, including an unauthenticated collector registration bypass and an authentication bypass in August, with marketplace extensions for CrowdStrike, Okta and Bitdefender. Build 13073 in September is a set of hotfixes for migration problems: failed dashboard migrations, IAM errors after login, and notification settings not saving.

◆ Where it's heading

The migration to the unified architecture is generating its own stream of fixes, while security patches continue at a monthly pace. Integrations are moving into marketplace extensions rather than core builds.

◆ Prediction

More hotfix builds for the unified migration are likely; no new build has appeared in the feed since mid-September.
