[RELEASE] ScyllaDB 5.1 RC4

[Tzach Livyatan]

The Scylla team is pleased to announce ScyllaDB Open Source 5.1 RC4, a Release Candidate for the Scylla Open Source 5.1 minor release. 

We encourage you to run ScyllaDB 5.1 release candidates on your test environments; this will help ensure that an upgrade to ScyllaDB 5.1 General Availability will proceed smoothly with your workload. Use the release candidate with caution; RC4 is not production-ready yet. You can help stabilize Scylla Open Source 5.1 by reporting bugs here. 

Only the last two minor releases of the ScyllaDB Open Source project are supported. Once Scylla Open Source 5.1 is officially released, ScyllaDB Open Source 5.1 and 5.0 will be supported, and ScyllaDB 4.6 will be retired.

For a complete description of ScyllaDB 5.1 see ScyllaDB 5.1.
