0.2.0
NOTE: this release includes many breaking changes in the FlowCollector CRD. We've tried to pack as many breaking changes as possible prior to releasing our GA (expected end of year). Some names / labels and the default namespace have changed, by renaming network-observability to netobserv. As a consequence, if you are upgrading from 0.1.4 or earlier, it is necessary to uninstall both the custom resource and the operator itself first.
Highlights
This release is placed under the sign of performance. There have been many improvements in that regard: in the eBPF agent, flowlogs-pipeline, Loki ingestion and querying, and with the Kafka-based processing pipeline. By the way, this Kafka pipeline is now a promoted feature (it was previously experimental).
Finally, we started an experimental feature in the console plugin: new overview dashboards. They don't have their definitive shape yet as we're still working on them, but you can have an early look if you wish: just add &overview=preview in your browser address bar, when you're on a Console plugin page.
