Product changelog

v24.5.7

Added support for SQL query functions, defined in modules. Configuration mechanism has changed, please check it here
Added Portable Local data source.
Enhanced clarity and detail in error messages for critical failures.

It is now possible to use a parent field in a synthetic table with the format synthetic_type 'parent', synthetic_parent_field 'another_field' in filters.
Descriptor Module Bundle now supports scheduled scripts, similar to other modules.
Resolved Out-Of-Memory (OOM) problems encountered when running certain queries on the KUBERNETES data source.
Introduced a new environment variable flag, KBL_SKIP_ENV_VAR_TEMP_FILE_ENCRYPTION, to prevent the local environment variable buffer file (used for restarting the instance) from being encrypted. This resolves issues where containers could not be stopped and restarted due to an invalid random key.
Enhanced the built-in DDL for the Kubernetes data source to cover reported use cases.

Introduced a new system schema called SYSMETRICS, which includes a table named METRICS for retrieving the engine's metrics values.
Removed the metric kubling.engine.sql.plan.enqueued_time.max and replaced it with kubling.engine.sql.plan.enqueued.max.

Implemented the distinction between passthrough and regular access in Database data sources. Therefore, you can now extend schemas also in these type of data sources. Learn more.
Added support for parameter lists in SQL functions.
Updated function module loading (SQL and Template) to support multiple modules instead of a single one. Changes to naming resolution were introduced; read more here and here.
It is no longer necessary to pass random values for generated fields in INSERT and UPDATE operations. The Query Engine now identifies and handles these fields automatically before executing the final command.
Fixed an issue that prevented the use of non-generated fields as filters with subqueries.
Updated embedded web console to reflect the above-mentioned changes.
Official images were renamed to kubling/kubling-ce and kubling/kubling-cli.

Implemented Cache. See here.
Added metrics to monitor Cache. See here.
Implemented first-class Document functions. See here.
Engine Stream Buffer can now use local disk. See the buffer configuration option in the main application configuration.
Updated embedded web console to reflect the above-mentioned changes.

Added blankNamespaceStrategy option to the Kubernetes Data Source Configuration.
Added a new aggregator schema button in the console, under Virtual Databases.
Fixed the JavaScript filesystem cache, which in some circumstances resulted in a false cache miss when the resource had been visited before, especially during import.
Added metadata__uid in all deployment related TABLE, in the built-in Kubernetes DDL
