Community Features

[Important]Important

Hortonworks strongly recommends that all users running HDP 2.3.4 upgrade to HDP 2.3.4.7.

The following features are developed and tested by the community, but are not officially supported by Hortonworks. There are variety of reasons that these features are excluded, including: insufficient reliability or incomplete test case coverage, declaration of non-production readiness by the community at large, feature deviates from Hortonworks best practices, and more. Do not use them in your production environments.
