Added​

  • all services: a9s Service Broker: Introduce the endpoint GET /v2/service_instances/:instance_id following the specifications set in OSBAPI specification - Fetch a Service Instance. This endpoint is used to retrieve the configuration parameters of a Service Instance that have been set or changed by the Application Developer, via the Cloud Foundry CLI. This feature is currently available only for a9s PostgreSQL.
  • a9s LogMe2: Add logstash8 to a9s LogMe2 Data Service Instances.

    • nginx:
      • PCRE2 to v10.46.
    • routing to v0.346.0.
  • a9s Messaging:
    • a9s Messaging 3.13:
      • erlang to v26.2.5.15.
    • a9s Messaging 4:
      • rabbitmq to v4.1.4.
      • erlang to v26.2.5.15.
  • a9s MongoDB:
    • a9s MongoDB 7:
      • mongodb to v7.0.24.
      • mongosh to v2.5.8.

Unsupported​

  • a9s Messaging: End of Support: Terminate support for the following deprecated a9s Data Service versions:

    • a9s Messaging 3.12: RabbitMQ 3.12 is end-of-life by their vendor since June 2024
    • a9s Messaging 3.13: RabbitMQ 3.13 is end-of-life by their vendor since Sept 2024

    The creation of new a9s Data Service Instances for these deprecated versions is now disabled by default in the a9s Data Service Bundle and we no longer provide regular support for these versions. The corresponding documentation has been removed.

    Although we will not intentionally break running Service Instances of these unsupported versions, it cannot be guaranteed that they still work as expected after an update to this release.

Removed​

  • docs: all services: Remove outdated information about a9s Messaging 3.12 and a9s Messaging 3.13 within the scope of unsupporting a9s Messaging 3.12 and a9s Messaging 3.13.

Fixed​

  • all services: a9s Smoke Tests: Improve the clean-up process to ensure that all applications pushed to Cloud Foundry are deleted once the a9s Smoke Tests have finished.
  • all services: a9s SPIs: Fix the validation of Graphite and legacy Syslog endpoints to only accept hosts in the recommended host:port format. Any other forms, such as username:password@host:port, will be rejected. For more information, see Set Up Monitoring.
  • a9s MariaDB: a9s MariaDB SPI: Create the default database when the Service Instance is created, instead of when the first Service Binding is created.
  • maintenance: Since the release of anynines-deployment v49.0.0, the wrong Redis® license had been included in the OSDF file. The Redis® Source Available License was included, even though it is not valid for Redis® 7.2.X and earlier versions. The Open.Source.Disclosure.File.txt file has been fixed to only include the correct BSD3 licence for Redis®.
  • docs: all services: Adapt certain admonitions to fix a visualization issue in light-mode which caused the text of code-blocks to be the same color as the background.
