1. Percona Everest, a Cloud Native database platform for Kubernetes, released its v1.4.0 with numerous new features. Particularly, it got the Helm charts as a new (and recommended) way of installation, Kubernetes namespace management via new
everestctl commands, improved UI, and support for Percona PostgreSQL operator v2.5.0 and PSMDB operator v1.18.0.2. Perses, a dashboard specification and tool for Prometheus (a CNCF Sandbox project), was updated to 0.50.0. It introduced the status history panel, reordering capability for the table panel, various new CLI commands for plugin development, and dozens of improvements.
3. Envoy Proxy (a CNCF Graduated project) released v1.33.0, featuring new JSON formatter implementation for the access log enabled by default, support for Wasm VM reload and Wasm plugins written in Go, parallel streaming of the shadow requests for HTTP requests, Signed Double-Submit Cookie pattern implementation in OAuth2, Opencensus tracing deprecation, and more.
4. Helm (a CNCF Graduated project) v3.17.0 was released with several new features, such as an ability to pull and install by OCI digest, added annotations and dependencies in the chart metadata output, new
--take-ownership flag for install and upgrade commands, and new toYamlPretty template function.5. VictoriaLogs, a scalable logs solution from the VictoriaMetrics project, has seen three substantial releases in January (1.5.0, 1.6.0, and 1.7.0). They introduced a
union pipe and INNER JOINs for join pipes in LogsQL queries, new histogram stats function and value_type filter, numerous web UI improvements (including autocompletion for queries and configuration settings for the grouped view), and better performance.6. Argo CD Image Updater, a tool to automatically update the images of K8s workloads managed by Argo CD (a CNCF Graduated project), had its v0.15 release back in October, but it was formally announced just two days ago (perhaps due to the v0.15.2 released two weeks ago). This version comes with support for Argo CD multi-source application sets, updating multiple images when using Helm value files, an ability to work even when auto-sync is disabled, and more.
