 Users are encouraged to read the full set of release notes.
 This page provides an overview of the major changes.
 
-Minimum required Java version increased from Java 7 to Java 8
-------------------
+Here is a short overview of the major features and improvements.
 
-All Hadoop JARs are now compiled targeting a runtime version of Java 8.
-Users still using Java 7 or below must upgrade to Java 8.
+### YARN
 
-Support for erasure coding in HDFS
-------------------
+#### YARN Native Services
 
-Erasure coding is a method for durably storing data with significant space
-savings compared to replication. Standard encodings like Reed-Solomon (10,4)
-have a 1.4x space overhead, compared to the 3x overhead of standard HDFS
-replication.
+Yarn Service framework provides first class support and APIs to host long running services natively in YARN. 
 
-Since erasure coding imposes additional overhead during reconstruction
-and performs mostly remote reads, it has traditionally been used for
-storing colder, less frequently accessed data. Users should consider
-the network and CPU overheads of erasure coding when deploying this
-feature.
+In a nutshell, it serves as a container orchestration platform for managing containerized services on YARN. It supports both docker container and traditional process based containers in YARN.
+    
+See the [user documentation](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/yarn-service/Overview.html) for more details.
 
-More details are available in the
-[HDFS Erasure Coding](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HDFSErasureCoding.html)
-documentation.
+#### First-class GPU support on YARN 
+First-class GPU scheduling and isolation (For both docker/non-docker containers) on YARN.
 
-YARN Timeline Service v.2
--------------------
+See the [user documentation](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/UsingGpus.html) for more details.
 
-We are introducing an early preview (alpha 2) of a major revision of YARN
-Timeline Service: v.2. YARN Timeline Service v.2 addresses two major
-challenges: improving scalability and reliability of Timeline Service, and
-enhancing usability by introducing flows and aggregation.
+#### First-class FPGA support on YARN 
+First-class FPGA scheduling and isolation (For both docker/non-docker containers) on YARN.
 
-YARN Timeline Service v.2 alpha 2 is provided so that users and developers
-can test it and provide feedback and suggestions for making it a ready
-replacement for Timeline Service v.1.x. It should be used only in a test
-capacity.
+See the [user documentation](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/UsingFPGA.html) for more details.
 
-More details are available in the
-[YARN Timeline Service v.2](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/TimelineServiceV2.html)
-documentation.
+#### Support Rich Placement Constraints in YARN 
 
-Shell script rewrite
--------------------
+Support more expressive placement constraints in YARN. Such constraints can be crucial for the performance and resilience of applications, especially those that include long-running containers, such as services, machine-learning and streaming workloads.
 
-The Hadoop shell scripts have been rewritten to fix many long-standing
-bugs and include some new features.  While an eye has been kept towards
-compatibility, some changes may break existing installations.
+For example, it may be beneficial to co-locate the allocations of a job on the same rack (*affinity* constraints) to reduce network costs, spread allocations across machines (*anti-affinity* constraints) to minimize resource interference, or allow up to a specific number of allocations in a node group (*cardinality* constraints) to strike a balance between the two. Placement decisions also affect resilience. For example, allocations placed within the same cluster upgrade domain would go offline simultaneously.
 
-Incompatible changes are documented in the release notes, with related
-discussion on [HADOOP-9902](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9902).
+See the [user documentation](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/PlacementConstraints.html) for more details.
 
-More details are available in the
-[Unix Shell Guide](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/UnixShellGuide.html)
-documentation. Power users will also be pleased by the
-[Unix Shell API](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/UnixShellAPI.html)
-documentation, which describes much of the new functionality, particularly
-related to extensibility.
+#### Add Absolute Resource Configuration to CapacityScheduler
 
-Shaded client jars
-------------------
+Support administrators to specify absolute resources (X Memory, Y VCores, Z GPUs, etc.) to a queue instead of providing percentage based values. This provides better control for admins to configure required amount of resources for a given queue.
 
-The `hadoop-client` Maven artifact available in 2.x releases pulls
-Hadoop's transitive dependencies onto a Hadoop application's classpath.
-This can be problematic if the versions of these transitive dependencies
-conflict with the versions used by the application.
+See the [user documentation](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/CapacityScheduler.html) for more details.
 
-[HADOOP-11804](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11804) adds
-new `hadoop-client-api` and `hadoop-client-runtime` artifacts that
-shade Hadoop's dependencies into a single jar. This avoids leaking
-Hadoop's dependencies onto the application's classpath.
+### HDFS
 
-Support for Opportunistic Containers and Distributed Scheduling.
---------------------
+#### Allow HDFS block replicas to be provided by an external storage system 
 
-A notion of `ExecutionType` has been introduced, whereby Applications can
-now request for containers with an execution type of `Opportunistic`.
-Containers of this type can be dispatched for execution at an NM even if
-there are no resources available at the moment of scheduling. In such a
-case, these containers will be queued at the NM, waiting for resources to
-be available for it to start. Opportunistic containers are of lower priority
-than the default `Guaranteed` containers and are therefore preempted,
-if needed, to make room for Guaranteed containers. This should
-improve cluster utilization.
+Provided storage allows data *stored outside HDFS* to be mapped to and addressed from HDFS. It builds on [heterogeneous storage](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/ArchivalStorage.html) by introducing a new storage type, `PROVIDED`, to the set of media in a DataNode.
 
-Opportunistic containers are by default allocated by the central RM, but
-support has also been added to allow opportunistic containers to be
-allocated by a distributed scheduler which is implemented as an
-AMRMProtocol interceptor.
-
-Please see [documentation](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/OpportunisticContainers.html)
-for more details.
-
-MapReduce task-level native optimization
---------------------
-
-MapReduce has added support for a native implementation of the map output
-collector. For shuffle-intensive jobs, this can lead to a performance
-improvement of 30% or more.
-
-See the release notes for
-[MAPREDUCE-2841](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2841)
-for more detail.
-
-Support for more than 2 NameNodes.
---------------------
-
-The initial implementation of HDFS NameNode high-availability provided
-for a single active NameNode and a single Standby NameNode. By replicating
-edits to a quorum of three JournalNodes, this architecture is able to
-tolerate the failure of any one node in the system.
-
-However, some deployments require higher degrees of fault-tolerance.
-This is enabled by this new feature, which allows users to run multiple
-standby NameNodes. For instance, by configuring three NameNodes and
-five JournalNodes, the cluster is able to tolerate the failure of two
-nodes rather than just one.
-
-The [HDFS high-availability documentation](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HDFSHighAvailabilityWithQJM.html)
-has been updated with instructions on how to configure more than two
-NameNodes.
-
-Default ports of multiple services have been changed.
-------------------------
-
-Previously, the default ports of multiple Hadoop services were in the
-Linux ephemeral port range (32768-61000). This meant that at startup,
-services would sometimes fail to bind to the port due to a conflict
-with another application.
-
-These conflicting ports have been moved out of the ephemeral range,
-affecting the NameNode, Secondary NameNode, DataNode, and KMS. Our
-documentation has been updated appropriately, but see the release
-notes for [HDFS-9427](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9427) and
-[HADOOP-12811](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12811)
-for a list of port changes.
-
-Support for Microsoft Azure Data Lake and Aliyun Object Storage System filesystem connectors
----------------------
-
-Hadoop now supports integration with Microsoft Azure Data Lake and
-Aliyun Object Storage System as alternative Hadoop-compatible filesystems.
-
-Intra-datanode balancer
--------------------
-
-A single DataNode manages multiple disks. During normal write operation,
-disks will be filled up evenly. However, adding or replacing disks can
-lead to significant skew within a DataNode. This situation is not handled
-by the existing HDFS balancer, which concerns itself with inter-, not intra-,
-DN skew.
-
-This situation is handled by the new intra-DataNode balancing
-functionality, which is invoked via the `hdfs diskbalancer` CLI.
-See the disk balancer section in the
-[HDFS Commands Guide](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HDFSCommands.html)
-for more information.
-
-Reworked daemon and task heap management
----------------------
-
-A series of changes have been made to heap management for Hadoop daemons
-as well as MapReduce tasks.
-
-[HADOOP-10950](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10950) introduces
-new methods for configuring daemon heap sizes.
-Notably, auto-tuning is now possible based on the memory size of the host,
-and the `HADOOP_HEAPSIZE` variable has been deprecated.
-See the full release notes of HADOOP-10950 for more detail.
-
-[MAPREDUCE-5785](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5785)
-simplifies the configuration of map and reduce task
-heap sizes, so the desired heap size no longer needs to be specified
-in both the task configuration and as a Java option.
-Existing configs that already specify both are not affected by this change.
-See the full release notes of MAPREDUCE-5785 for more details.
-
-S3Guard: Consistency and Metadata Caching for the S3A filesystem client
----------------------
-
-[HADOOP-13345](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13345) adds an
-optional feature to the S3A client of Amazon S3 storage: the ability to use
-a DynamoDB table as a fast and consistent store of file and directory
-metadata.
-
-See [S3Guard](./hadoop-aws/tools/hadoop-aws/s3guard.html) for more details.
-
-HDFS Router-Based Federation
----------------------
-HDFS Router-Based Federation adds a RPC routing layer that provides a federated
-view of multiple HDFS namespaces. This is similar to the existing
-[ViewFs](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/ViewFs.html)) and
-[HDFS Federation](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/Federation.html)
-functionality, except the mount table is managed on the server-side by the
-routing layer rather than on the client. This simplifies access to a federated
-cluster for existing HDFS clients.
-
-See [HDFS-10467](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10467) and the
-HDFS Router-based Federation
-[documentation](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HDFSRouterFederation.html) for
-more details.
-
-API-based configuration of Capacity Scheduler queue configuration
-----------------------
-
-The OrgQueue extension to the capacity scheduler provides a programmatic way to
-change configurations by providing a REST API that users can call to modify
-queue configurations. This enables automation of queue configuration management
-by administrators in the queue's `administer_queue` ACL.
-
-See [YARN-5734](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-5734) and the
-[Capacity Scheduler documentation](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/CapacityScheduler.html) for more information.
-
-YARN Resource Types
----------------
-
-The YARN resource model has been generalized to support user-defined countable resource types beyond CPU and memory. For instance, the cluster administrator could define resources like GPUs, software licenses, or locally-attached storage. YARN tasks can then be scheduled based on the availability of these resources.
-
-See [YARN-3926](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3926) and the [YARN resource model documentation](./hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/ResourceModel.html) for more information.
+See the [user documentation](./hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HdfsProvidedStorage.html) for more details.
