Starburst Enterprise platform (SEP) 438-e is the follow up SEP release to 435-e. It includes all improvements from the following Trino releases:

This release is a short term support (STS) release.

Breaking changes#

As of SEP 438-e, Starburst Warp Speed uses a new file system caching mechanism. To use Starburst Warp Speed, you must add the --enable-preview flag to your jvm.config configuration. Additionally, the following catalog configuration properties have been removed:
- warp-speed.workerdb.db.path
- warp-speed.file-system-reserve-percentage
- warp-speed.call-home.enable
You must remove these configuration properties from your cluster configuration or the cluster fails to start.
The Elasticsearch connector no longer supports Elasticsearch version 6.x or OpenSearch 1.x. Update Elasticsearch to version 7.x or 8.x to continue using the connector. To connect to OpenSearch, use the OpenSearch connector.
SEP now requires JDK 21 to run. See the Java runtime environment requirements for more information.
If you are using Oracle as the externally-managed database for the Backend service and upgrading to this version from SEP version 435-e or earlier, you must take additional steps prior to upgrading SEP. Contact Starburst Support for assistance.
