What’s New in RapidMiner Server 7.0

This page describes enhancements delivered by RapidMiner Server 7.0.

Release compatibilities

It is important to use compatible versions of RapidMiner Studio and RapidMiner Server. Keep the following in mind when making upgrade decisions:

  • RapidMiner Studio 7.0 is only compatible with RapidMiner Server 7.0 (and vice versa).

  • You cannot upgrade one without upgrading the other.

This change has no impact on process or repository compatibility between releases. That is, upon upgrade all previously developed content is immediately and seamlessly available.

Important upgrade information

On your account Downloads page, you will see two options for upgrading to RapidMiner Server 7.0:

Select the appropriate option, typically the EAR file:

Download option Description
Full Server Package A JBoss Application Server and the application software EAR file. Use this option for new installations and in rare cases where you must replace the existing JBoss Server.
EAR File An EAR file containing the newest version of the application software. This is the preferred—and fastest—method of upgrade. Please note the additional installation steps required for this method: Upgrade using an EAR file.

To upgrade by EAR, follow these steps:

  1. Rename the old RapidMiner Server EAR (for example, rapidminer-server-2.5.0.ear to rapidminer-server-2.5.0.earx).

  2. Remove any file containing the string ROOT.war (for example, ROOT.war and ROOT.war.dodeploy).

  3. Place the Rapidminer Server 7.0 EAR file into the standalone/deployments folder of your Rapidminer Server installation directory.
