[hono-dev] Eclipse Hono 1.1.0-M1 Milestone

["Hudalla Kai (INST/ECS4)" <kai.hudalla@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Hono community,

today we have created version 1.1.0 milestone 1 of the Eclipse Hono [1]
project.

Hono aims at providing uniform service interfaces for connecting large
numbers of IoT devices to a (cloud) back end. It specifically supports
scalable and secure data ingestion (telemetry data & events) and also
supports sending messages to devices.

Here are the release notes for the changes and improvements since 1.0.1
which are contained in this milestone:

New Features

* The Sigfox and LoRaWAN adapters now report metrics analogously to
  the other protocol adapters.
* With the release of Eclipse Californium 2.0.0, the CoAP adapter
  becomes an official part of the Hono release. The adapter now
  supports tracking of request processing using OpenTracing but is
  still considered *experimental*.
* A lorawan provider has been added for the loriot network provider.
* Hono's protocol adapters now support Server Name Indication in order
  to allow devices to establish a TLS connection with adapters
  using a tenant specific server certificate and host name.
  Please refer to the *Secure Communication* admin guide for details.

Fixes & Enhancements

* The example deployment now also works with Kubernetes >= 1.16
  using Helm >= 2.15.
* The Hono chart can now also be deployed using the recently
  released Helm 3. In fact, Helm 3 is now the recommended way
  for deploying Hono as it doesn't require installation of any
  Helm specific components to the Kubernetes cluster.
* Under rare circumstances an HTTP adapter instance might have
  gotten into a state where a device's requests to receive
  commands could no longer be processed successfully anymore until
  the adapter instance had been restarted. This has been fixed.
* The example data grid which can be deployed using the Hono
  Helm chart can now be scaled out to more than one node.



Binary artifacts are available from the Eclipse Repository [4] and from
Maven Central [5].

However, the easiest and also the preferred way of using Hono is by
means of Docker images available from Docker Hub [6]. A Helm chart for
deploying Hono to Kubernetes or OpenShift is available from the download
page [7].

If you want to give Hono a try, please follow the Getting Started guide
on the project web site [8].

Please refer to the project page at Eclipse [9] for Hono's release plan.
