What's New?

  There’s a lot of activity occurring in trunk. We’ve had a great response from the
  community and received a lot of input into the direction. To date, we have added
  many new features. To highlight a few...

  * Added more options on provisioning so you can better target your cluster
    setup for your needs

  * More service controls, including the ability to run ad hoc smoke tests

  * Exposed a RESTful API for cluster metrics (with management and
    provisioning to follow)

  * Moved to a JavaScript front-end for Ambari Web and refreshed the entire UI
    experience

  * Used that RESTful API and added more charts and heatmaps to the dashboard

  * Reduced the number of dependencies on the Ambari Server + Ambari Agent

  * Added support for SLES 11
