v4.0.4

Fixed Issues

  • In ACP v4.0.2 and ACP v4.0.3, Redis fails to backup if set to S3 storage during automatic backup.
    This issue will be fixed in v4.0.4.
    In this case, it is recommended to use manual backup first or change to PVC in the automatic backup storage.

Known Issues

  • When upgrading a Redis Sentinel instance from v5 to v7, occasional brain split incidents may occur, potentially leading to data loss.
    Solution: Back up the Redis instance data before performing a cross-version upgrade.

v4.0.3

Fixed Issues

  • When running the Redis extension on ACP v4.0.0, ACP v4.0.1, and ACP v4.0.2, the Redis Operator does not work properly with the UI capabilities under the Data Services view in chrome version 90.
    This issue has been fixed on v4.0.3.

Known Issues

  • In ACP v4.0.2 and ACP v4.0.3, Redis fails to backup if set to S3 storage during automatic backup.

    In this case, it is recommended to use manual backup first or change to PVC in the automatic backup storage.

v4.0.1

Fixed Issues

  • Previously, when creating a Redis instance in the Data Services view, a PVC capacity input that was less than the memory capacity would cause the Redis instance to not be created successfully.
    This issue has been fixed on 4.0.1.

v4.0.0

New and Optimized Features

Component-Platform Decoupling

Alauda Cache Services for Redis OSS's lifecycle has been decoupled from platform's, which means when customer needs a certain feature or a bug fix, Redis team can release immediately instead of waiting for the platform release together.

Real-Time Logs on Component Details Page

The logs on Redis details page have been replaced with real-time logs that update instantly, facilitating troubleshooting and issue analysis.

External Access via LoadBalancer for Redis

LoadBalancer access is now supported for Redis. When creating an instance, users can choose to expose services externally through a LoadBalancer-type Service.

Compare to NodePort, LoadBalancer provides better high availability, performance, and export standard port. It is recommended to use the LoadBalancer method in production environments.

Limitations

When using LoadBalancer, ensure that the cluster has available external address pools. We recommend using MetalLB to create external address pools for the cluster.

Fixed Issues

  • Previously, during Redis instance upgrades from v6.0 to v7.2, infrastructure instability could (in rare cases) lead to data loss. This issue has been resolved in Alauda Cache Service for Redis OSS v4.

Known Issues

  • Previously, when creating a Redis instance in the Data Services view, a PVC capacity input that was less than the memory capacity would cause the Redis instance to not be created successfully.
    This issue has been fixed on 4.0.1.
