25 April 2024 - v4.10.9

7 months ago by Rich Vanderwal

Intake Head service, continuous control loop operator, ORDER BY LIMIT optimization

NOTICE:
This version of Hydrolix uses Unified Authentication by default, which is a breaking change for existing customers using Basic Authentication. To maintain current behavior when upgrading a cluster from an earlier release, ensure that unified_auth: false is set in your cluster's configuration.

NOTICE:
This version of Hydrolix requires PostgreSQL version 11 or higher. We strongly recommend you use PostgreSQL 13 or higher for easy upgrading. If you are using PostgreSQL version 11 or 12, enable the ltree extension as superuser, and consider upgrading to an up-to-date version of PostgreSQL.

NOTICE:
RBAC Version 2, introduced in Hydrolix version 4.6.5, has tighter security than RBAC Version 1. In particular, read-only roles have more limited visibility of the system.

NOTICE:
If you are using batch ingest, and need to roll back to 4.8.x after upgrading to this version, contact Hydrolix Customer Success before rolling back.

Upgrade on GKE:

kubectl apply -f "https://www.hydrolix.io/operator/v4.10.9/operator-resources?namespace=${HDX_KUBERNETES_NAMESPACE}&gcp-storage-sa=${GCP_STORAGE_SA}"

Upgrade on EKS:

kubectl apply -f "https://www.hydrolix.io/operator/v4.10.9/operator-resources?namespace=${HDX_KUBERNETES_NAMESPACE}&aws-storage-role=${AWS_STORAGE_ROLE}"

Further upgrade instructions can be found in the Update to v4.10 guide.

Notable New Features

  • Intake-Head service
    • Re-written streaming ingestion service that removes queuing (and reliance on Redpanda), increasing efficiency and simplifying design.
  • ORDER BY LIMIT optimization
    • Order-by limit queries perform more aggressive partition and block-level pruning, increasing performance while maintaining data integrity.
  • Continuous control loop operator
    • Rather than running just once per deployment, the operator now runs continuously. NOTE: temporary manual changes to deployments will now be overwritten by this control loop. When making manual changes, scale the operator to 0 with kubectl scale --replicas 0 deployment/operator
