BDA 4.13 will have the following features, versions etc.:

• Of course an update to CDH. In this case we are going to uptake CDH 5.15.0. However, the release date of 5.15.1 is pretty close to our planned date, and so, we may choose to pick up that version
• We are adding the following features:
  • Support for SHA-2 certificates with Kerberos
  • Upgrade and Expand for Kafka clusters (the create was introduced in BDA 4.12)
  • A disk shredding utility, where you easily "erase" data on the disks. We expect most customers to use this in cloud nodes
  • Support for Active Directory in Big Data Manager
• We obviously will update the JDK and the Linux OS to the latest version, as well as apply the latest security updates. Same for MySQL

Then there is of course the important question on timelines. Right now – subject to change and the below mentioned safe harbor statement – we are looking at mid August as the planned date, assuming we are going with 5.15.0.
