Artemis 1.4.0 Released

Artemis 1.4.0 has been released.


This is an epic release:

- Paging had a lot of improvements. you can have a max-size for the entire broker before the destinations will start to page.

- The producers will block when the disk is beyond a % limit. (Nice feature :) )

- When you kick clients, consumers will disconnect immediately (unless you configured reconnects on core protocol).

Onward 1.5.0 now. I don't want to spoil the surprise but I am thinking of some nice things, that I will start adding JIRAs towards it :)

I am making a quick video on how to download and run an Artemis Broker.

On this video you will be able to hear me with my beautiful Brazilian-English accent.

Epic change on Artemis 1.4.0 Coming up

I just sent an epic pull request towards ActiveMQ Artemis today.https://github.com/apache/activemq-artemis/pull/749

After this Artemis will monitor disk usage, and block or fail producers.

There is now a global limit for the server's memory before address start into page mode. Before you would need to specify the limit per address. Now you can have a global limit.


Besides this, artemis is getting into a nice shape for 1.4.0. I'm really excited about it coming up this week, and I should post a video or something this week on how to start a server.
