Today we, the Eclipse Ditto team, are happy to announce our next milestone 0.3.0-M2.

The main changes are

* improvement of Ditto's cluster performance with many managed Things
* a new Ditto service [ditto-concierge](architecture-services-concierge.html) was added for this
* improved cluster bootstrapping based on DNS with the potential to easy plugin other mechanism (e.g. for Kubernetes)

Have a look at the Milestone [0.3.0-M2 release notes](release_notes_030-M2.html) for a detailed description of what
changed.

## Artifacts

The new Java artifacts have been published at the [Eclipse Maven repository](https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/ditto/)
as well as [Maven central](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/ditto/).

The Docker images have been pushed to Docker Hub:
* [eclipse/ditto-policies](https://hub.docker.com/r/eclipse/ditto-policies/)
* [eclipse/ditto-things](https://hub.docker.com/r/eclipse/ditto-things/)
* [eclipse/ditto-things-search](https://hub.docker.com/r/eclipse/ditto-things-search/)
* [eclipse/ditto-gateway](https://hub.docker.com/r/eclipse/ditto-gateway/)
* [eclipse/ditto-connectivity](https://hub.docker.com/r/eclipse/ditto-connectivity/)

Since the last milestone of Eclipse Ditto [0.3.0-M1](release_notes_030-M1.html), the following changes, new features and
bugfixes were added.


## Changes

### [Reduce network load for cache-sync](https://github.com/eclipse/ditto/issues/126)

With 0.3.0-M1 Ditto had a performance issue when managing more than 100.000 Things in its memory as Ditto used a
distributed cluster cache which was not intended to be used in that way. Over time, as cache entries could not be deleted
from this cache, a Ditto cluster got slower and slower.

This is fixed now in 0.3.0-M2 by introducing a new Ditto service: [ditto-concierge](architecture-services-concierge.html)
which is also shown in the [architecture overview](architecture-overview.html).

This is the biggest change in this milestone which required a lot of refactoring effort. A big thank you to our two
committers Daniel and Yufei which did an amazing job. The roundtrip times in a Ditto cluster are now at a constant and
very good rate.

### [Cluster bootstrapping improved](https://github.com/eclipse/ditto/issues/167)

Ditto now uses the [akka-management](https://developer.lightbend.com/docs/akka-management/current/index.html) library
in order to bootstrap a new cluster. By default Ditto uses a DNS-based approach to find its other cluster-nodes and
bootstrap a not yet formed cluster. This works very well for Docker swarm based clusters.

The benefit is also that the containers no longer need to be started in a specific order and with delay.

Future versions could also benefit from the other bootstrapping mechanisms for `kubenertes`, `mesos` or `ec2` (AWS)
environment.

## New features

No new features for this milestone.


## Bugfixes

### Search index fixes

The search-index of the [Ditto search](basic-search.html) had several issues which lead to a poor query performance
when searching for Things.

These issues were adressed in several fixes:
* [#159](https://github.com/eclipse/ditto/pull/159)
* [#169](https://github.com/eclipse/ditto/pull/169)
* [#175](https://github.com/eclipse/ditto/pull/175)


### Various smaller bugfixes

This is a complete list of the
[merged pull requests](https://github.com/eclipse/ditto/pulls?q=is%3Apr+milestone%3A0.3.0-M2+).
