Kaltura CE 14.14.0 released

Hello all,

The latest version is now available.

New components

Kaltura Elasticsearch

The Kaltura Server now utilises Elasticsearch to provide better searching functionality. This is implemented in a service called eSearch. Documentation for this service can be found here: https://developer.kaltura.com/console/service/eSearch/action/searchEntry

The deployment of this service and all its deps is achieved by installing the kaltura-elasticsearch package. For an all in one deployment, this is done automatically as it is now specified as a dep in the kaltura-server meta package and was also added to the install_kaltura_all_in_1.sh script used for deploying on Debian/Ubuntu.
In a clustered ENV, install this package on the relevant nodes. For RPM, you should then run:

# /opt/kaltura/bin/kaltura-es-config.sh

For Debian/Ubuntu, the needed configurations are done as part of the postinst hook [/var/lib/dpkg/info/kaltura-elasticsearch.postinst]

Once done, adjust the below directives in /opt/kaltura/app/configurations/elastic.ini on all API nodes:

elasticHost = 127.0.0.1
elasticPort = 9200

Kaltura Player v3

This release includes the next generation Kaltura player [AKA PlayKit]. In order to create a v3 player, one must first enable the V3 Studio via Admin Console->Publishers->Partner->Actions->Configure->'Show V3 Studio'.
This needs to be done per partner. Once done, in KMC, navigate to Studio->TV PLATFORM STUDIO->Add New Player.
