MariaDB Connector/J 3.5.1 is a Stable (GA) release.
For an overview of MariaDB Connector/J see theAbout MariaDB Connector/J page
The MariaDB Connector/J 3.5 release series is replacing the maintenance releases for the 3.4 release series, as the new release series is fully compatible with 3.4.
Support of the PARSEC Authentication Plugin which is provided starting with MariaDB Server 11.6. See parsec documentation for more details.
This requires java 15+ (to use java native ed25519 Algorithm implementation). For previous versions of java, this will require adding BouncyCastle as dependency.
While initially documented in 3.5.0, this feature was not in the released version.
When running a multi-master cluster (i.e. MariaDB Cluster with Galera), writing to more than one node can lead to optimistic locking errors ("deadlocks") in some use cases. Writing concurrently to multiple nodes also doesn't result in performance improvements, due to having to synchronously replicate to all nodes. The new high availability mode “Load-balance-read” permits the use of masters in a failover manner (try first master, the next one if the first master fails) while distributing the load on replicas.
Example of connection string:
jdbc:mariadb:load-balance-read://127.0.0.5,127.0.0.6,address=(host=127.0.0.7)(type=replica),address=(host=127.0.0.8)(type=replica)/DB
Equivalent of:
jdbc:mariadb:load-balance-read://address=(host=127.0.0.5)(type=primary),address=(host=127.0.0.6)(type=primary),address=(host=127.0.0.7)(type=replica),address=(host=127.0.0.8)(type=replica)/DB
In the example the hosts 127.0.0.5, 127.0.0.6 will be used for writes, in a failover manner. 127.0.0.6,127.0.0.7 are of type replica, read load balancing will be used.
Since MDEV-30366, the server can return appropriate detailed answers. This was implemented, but not for specific INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE commands.
