Kaltura CE 14.14.0 released

jess · February 22, 2019, 2:34pm

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.

# Deploying Kaltura Clusters

Below are **RPM** based instructions for deploying Kaltura Clusters.    
Refer to the [All-In-One Kaltura Server Installation Guide](install-kaltura-redhat-based.md) for more notes about deploying Kaltura in RPM supported environments.    
Refer to the [Deploying Kaltura Clusters Using Chef](rpm-chef-cluster-deployment.md) for automated Chef based deployments.

### Before You Get Started Notes
* If you see a `#` at the beginning of a line, this line should be run as `root`.
* Please review the [frequently answered questions](kaltura-packages-faq.md) document for general help before posting to the forums or issue queue.
* All post-install scripts accept answers-file as parameter, this can used for silent-automatic installs.
* For a cluster install, it is very important to pass an [answer file](kaltura.template.ans) to each script because otherwise, the MySQL 'kaltura' passwd is autogenerated by the installer. This is fine for a standalone server but for a cluster, passwd must be the same on all. 
* [Kaltura Inc.](http://corp.kaltura.com) also provides commercial solutions and services including pro-active platform monitoring, applications, SLA, 24/7 support and professional services. If you're looking for a commercially supported video platform  with integrations to commercial encoders, streaming servers, eCDN, DRM and more - Start a [Free Trial of the Kaltura.com Hosted Platform](http://corp.kaltura.com/free-trial) or learn more about [Kaltura' Commercial OnPrem Edition™](http://corp.kaltura.com/Deployment-Options/Kaltura-On-Prem-Edition).
