Earlier today, we blogged about a boatload of Openfire plugins for which we made available maintenance releases.
Apart from that, we’ve also made a more notable release: that of the Hazelcast plugin for Openfire.
The Hazelcast plugin for Openfire adds clustering support to Openfire. It is based on the Hazelcast platform.
This release brings a major upgrade of the platform. It migrates from version 3.12.5 to 5.3.7.
As a result, replacing an older version of the plugin with this new release requires some careful planning. Notably, the configuration stored on-disk has changed (and is unlikely to be compatible between versions). Please refer to the readme of the plugin for details.
A big thank you goes out to community member Arwen for making this upgrade happen!
As usual, the new version of the plugin will become available in your Openfire server within the next few hours. Alternatively, you can download the plugin from its archive page.
