12.69. Release 0.182
General Changes
- Fix correctness issue that causes 
corr() to return positive numbers for inverse correlations. 
- Fix the EXPLAIN query plan for tables that are partitioned
on 
TIMESTAMP or DATE columns. 
- Fix query failure when when using certain window functions that take arrays or maps as arguments (e.g., 
approx_percentile()). 
- Implement subtraction for all 
TIME and TIMESTAMP types. 
- Improve planning performance for queries that join multiple tables with
a large number columns.
 
- Improve the performance of joins with only non-equality conditions by using
a nested loops join instead of a hash join.
 
- Improve the performance of casting from 
JSON to ARRAY or MAP types. 
- Add a new IPADDRESS type to represent IP addresses.
 
- Add 
to_milliseconds() function to convert intervals (day to second) to milliseconds. 
- Add support for column aliases in 
CREATE TABLE AS statements. 
- Add a config option to reject queries during cluster initialization.
Queries are rejected if the active worker count is less than the
query-manager.initialization-required-workers property while the
coordinator has been running for less than query-manager.initialization-timeout. 
- Add TPCDS Connector. This connector provides a set of schemas to
support the TPC Benchmark⢠DS (TPC-DS).
 
 
CLI Changes
- Fix an issue that would sometimes prevent queries from being cancelled when exiting from the pager.
 
 
Hive Changes
- Fix reading decimal values in the optimized Parquet reader when they are backed
by the 
int32 or int64 types. 
- Add a new experimental ORC writer implementation optimized for Presto.
We have some upcoming improvements, so we recommend waiting a few releases before
using this in production. The new writer can be enabled with the
hive.orc.optimized-writer.enabled configuration property or with the
orc_optimized_writer_enabled session property.
