Release v0.54.0

Welcome in the v0.54.0 release !

First of all this release includes several security fixes that patches some breach in the permission system included in Perses, so we strongly recommend to upgrade to this version as soon as possible.

Then, you will be happy to know that this release includes new plugins: Jaeger, GreptimeDB, Splunk, LogExplorer, AlertManager and OpenSearch.

As adding more plugins is increasing the size of the container image, likely we will remove some of them in future release. It does not mean we will remove the support for these plugins, it is just we won't include them into the default image. You will have to add them manually. The drop will occur once we are able to provide a good way to add plugins to an existing installation without having to rebuild the image. In the meantime, if you don't want to use these plugins, you can choose to enable or disable them by configuration.

We are also happy to announce it includes the long awaited sub-folder system to better organize your dashboards and improve the accessibility by adding keyboard shortcuts.

This release is also the last release for the package @perses-dev/core that is now deprecated. For that we are introducing two new packages @perses-dev/spec and @perses-dev/client.

  • @perses-dev/spec contains the dashboard and datasource specifications.
  • @perses-dev/client contains the client to interact with the Perses API.

The code from @perses-dev/core has been dispatched in these these two packages and in others (like @perses-dev/plugin-system and @perses-dev/components) to better separate the concerns and make it easier to maintain.

Finally, thank you to all the contributors who made this release possible, you are more and more, and we are really happy to see the community growing and contributing to make Perses better and better!

Release v0.53.0

Welcome to Perses v0.53.0! In this release, on top of many improvements and bug fixes, we have introduced several changes that break the compatibility with previous versions.

These changes have been thinking carefully to improve the overall user experience and maintainability of Perses. We hope even if it will make the upgrade process a bit more complex, you will stay with us and enjoy the benefits of these improvements.

While you can read this blog post to have details about the changes and how to upgrade, we are also providing a migration guide that is more condensed and focused on the steps required to upgrade from previous versions to v0.53.0.

On a different topic, we are happy to being able to list Logz.io as a new officially company using Perses in production. Welcome to the Perses community!

If you are a company using Perses or contributing to it and want to be listed as an adopter, please follow the guideline. It is always great to see more and more companies trusting Perses for their monitoring needs. And it will help us to grow the community and make Perses even better.
