Release Notes for Chaos Genius 0.8.0
Hello everyone 👋, we’re announcing the release of Chaos Genius v0.8.0 today 🎉
We’ve focused on enriching user experience and fixing critical bugs. We briefly cover the main features & fixes here.
🚨 Enhancements to our Alerts Module - More Insights, Less Noise
To make alerts more insightful, we now identify KPI behavior such as ⬆️ Spike, 🔽 Drop and ⏺️ Anomalous occurrences. Furthermore we’ve reduced noise in alert messages by switching off sub-dimensional alerts by default. However they will still be available via the Alerts Dashboard. We are currently working on making Sub-Dimensional Alerts more relevant and insightful for the users in the upcoming releases, so stay tuned!

🧐 Increased focus on Anomaly Detection
After listening to all our users feedback we have decided to shift our focus and deepen our offering on Anomaly Detection. On that end, we have made the DeepDrills section optional. This feature will now be disabled by default. Users have the option to enable it, if they want. Please refer to our docs on how to enable DeepDrills.
