6.12.0 release notes

The following release notes include information for Amazon EMR release 6.12.0. Changes are relative to 6.11.0. For information on the release timeline, see the 6.12.0 change log.

New features

  • Amazon EMR 6.12.0 supports Apache Spark 3.4.0, Apache Spark RAPIDS 23.06.0-amzn-0, CUDA 11.8.0, Apache Hudi 0.13.1-amzn-0, Apache Iceberg 1.3.0-amzn-0, Trino 414, and PrestoDB 0.281.

  • Amazon EMR releases 6.12.0 and higher support LDAP integration with Apache Livy, Apache Hive through HiveServer2 (HS2), Trino, Presto, and Hue. You can also install Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop on an EMR cluster that uses 6.12.0 or higher and configure them to use LDAP. For more information, see Use Active Directory or LDAP servers for authentication with Amazon EMR.

Changes, enhancements, and resolved issues

  • Amazon EMR releases 6.12.0 and higher provide Java 11 runtime support for Flink. For more information, see Configure Flink to run with Java 11.

  • The 6.12.0 release adds a new retry mechanism to the cluster scaling workflow for EMR clusters that run Presto or Trino. This improvement reduces the risk that cluster resizing will indefinitely stall due to a single failed resize operation. It also improves cluster utilization, because your cluster scales up and down faster.

  • The 6.12.0 release fixes an issue where cluster scale-down operations might stall when a core node that is undergoing graceful decommissioning turns unhealthy for any reason before it fully decommissions.

  • The 6.12.0 release improves cluster scale-down logic so that your cluster doesn't attempt a scale-down of core nodes below the HDFS replication factor setting for the cluster. This aligns with your data redundancy requirements, and reduces the chance that a scaling operation might stall.

  • The 6.12.0 release enhances the performance and efficiency of the health monitoring service for Amazon EMR by increasing the speed at which it logs state changes for instances. This improvement reduces the chance of degraded performance for cluster nodes that are running multiple custom client tools or third-party applications.

  • The 6.12.0 release improves the performance of the on-cluster log management daemon for Amazon EMR. As a result, there is less chance for degraded performance with EMR clusters that run steps with high concurrency.

  • With Amazon EMR release 6.12.0, the log management daemon has been upgraded to identify all logs that are in active use with open file handles on the local instance storage, and the associated processes. This upgrade ensures that Amazon EMR properly deletes the files and reclaims storage space after the logs are archived to Amazon S3.

  • The 6.12.0 release includes a log-management daemon enhancement that deletes empty, unused steps directories in the local cluster file system. An excessively large number of empty directories can degrade the performance of Amazon EMR daemons and result in disk over-utilization.

  • The 6.12.0 release enables log rotation for YARN Timeline Server logs. This minimizes disk over-utilization scenarios, especially for long-running clusters.

  • The default root volume size has increased to 15 GB in Amazon EMR 6.10.0 and higher. Earlier releases have default root volume size of 10 GB.

  • When you launch a cluster with the latest patch release of Amazon EMR 5.36 or higher, 6.6 or higher, or 7.0 or higher, Amazon EMR uses the latest Amazon Linux 2023 or Amazon Linux 2 release for the default Amazon EMR AMI. For more information, see Using the default Amazon Linux AMI for Amazon EMR.

6.12.0 default Java versions

Amazon EMR releases 6.12.0 and higher support all applications with Amazon Corretto 8 by default, except for Trino. For Trino, Amazon EMR supports Amazon Corretto 17 by default starting with Amazon EMR release 6.9.0. Amazon EMR also supports some applications with Amazon Corretto 11 and 17. Those applications are listed in the following table. If you want to change the default JVM on your cluster, follow the instructions in Configure applications to use a specific Java Virtual Machine for each application that runs on the cluster. You can only use one Java runtime version for a cluster. Amazon EMR doesn't support running different nodes or applications on different runtime versions on the same cluster.

While Amazon EMR supports both Amazon Corretto 11 and 17 on Apache Spark, Apache Hadoop, and Apache Hive, performance might regress for some workloads when you use these versions of Corretto. We recommend that you test your workloads before you change defaults.

The following table shows the default Java versions for applications in Amazon EMR 6.12.0:

Application Java / Amazon Corretto version (default is bold)
Delta 17, 11, 8
Flink 11, 8
Ganglia 8

6.12.0 component versions

The components that Amazon EMR installs with this release are listed below. Some are installed as part of big-data application packages. Others are unique to Amazon EMR and installed for system processes and features. These typically start with emr or aws. Big-data application packages in the most recent Amazon EMR release are usually the latest version found in the community. We make community releases available in Amazon EMR as quickly as possible.

Some components in Amazon EMR differ from community versions. These components have a version label in the form CommunityVersion-amzn-EmrVersion. The EmrVersion starts at 0. For example, if open source community component named myapp-component with version 2.2 has been modified three times for inclusion in different Amazon EMR releases, its release version is listed as 2.2-amzn-2.

6.12.0 configuration classifications

Configuration classifications allow you to customize applications. These often correspond to a configuration XML file for the application, such as hive-site.xml. For more information, see Configure applications.

Reconfiguration actions occur when you specify a configuration for instance groups in a running cluster. Amazon EMR only initiates reconfiguration actions for the classifications that you modify. For more information, see Reconfigure an instance group in a running cluster.
