## Version 0.16.0

Release date: 21 August 2014

Version 0.16.0 contains the following notable changes:

* Kite datasets can be read from and written to by Apache Spark jobs. See the new
[Spark example](https://github.com/kite-sdk/kite-examples/tree/master/spark) for details on usage.
* Added a CLI [transform task](https://issues.cloudera.org/browse/CDK-549) for transforming
entities read from a source dataset before storing then into a target dataset.
* Added a CDH5 application parent POM that makes it easy to build Kite applications on CDH5 using Maven.
The [Spark example](https://github.com/kite-sdk/kite-examples/tree/master/spark) uses this parent POM.
* The `DatasetRepository` and `DatasetRepositories` APIs have been moved to the SPI and
deprecated from the public API. Users should move to the new
[`Datasets`](http://kitesdk.org/docs/current/apidocs/org/kitesdk/data/Datasets.html) API before the<commit_msg>CDK-651: Add release notes for Hive MetaStore change.<commit_after># Release Notes
