This release contains several breaking changes so please read the entire release note prior to installation.

Important changes to our internal architecture ❗​

We are cleaning up our Docker image to bring you a simpler, lighter, and generally more operable product.

  • We have extracted the 'Storage & Alerting' aspect of the Monitoring Solution from the base Console image and moved it to a dependency image
    • If you didn't use Monitoring, no further action is required from your part
    • If you used Monitoring, read the documentation to understand how to deploy and configure the dependency image conduktor/conduktor-platform-cortex:1.18.0
  • We have removed the embedded Postgres Database from the Docker image
  • We have removed Testing from the base image
  • We have rewritten our authentication module. If you have any issue with authentication using LDAP or OIDC with this new release Contact Conduktor Support

Features ✨​

User Friendly Filters​

We have completely revamped our filtering UX in the Consume page to be more aligned with your day-to-day use cases. Now you can search your topics by combining any of the following filtering mechanisms.

Simple Filters​

Search for any text in your messages either in your Key, or Value, using basic operators like "equals" or "contains". Simple Filters

Field Filters​

If your message is JSON, Avro or Protobuf, find values from specific fields. Operators can match the selected field type. Field Filters

Advanced Filters​

For when you require more complex rules, Advanced Filters will give you the full power of JS to construct your own custom filters. Advanced Filters

New Design for Service Accounts & Kafka ACLs​

We've overhauled Kafka ACLs and service account management. Visualize, create and edit your Kafka ACLs right within the UI with a simple but powerful design. Pair this with our market leading RBAC capability to empower only those that need it Service Accounts ACLS 1.
Service Accounts ACLS 2

Reduced Memory Footprint​

As a result of our improvements to our internal architecture, we are happy to share that we have lowered our hardware requirements.
If you are currently deployed in prod using RUN_MODE=nano or RUN_MODE=small, please update the RUN_MODE based on your available memory after looking at our documentation.
If you are using higher RUN_MODE, you can free up some memory and save on infrastructure costs.
