Changelog

Cortex

  • [CHANGE] Blocks storage: update the default HTTP configuration values for the S3 client to the upstream Thanos default values. #3244
    • -blocks-storage.s3.http.idle-conn-timeout is set 90 seconds.
    • -blocks-storage.s3.http.response-header-timeout is set to 2 minutes.
  • [CHANGE] Improved shuffle sharding support in the write path. This work introduced some config changes: #3090
    • Introduced -distributor.sharding-strategy CLI flag (and its respective sharding_strategy YAML config option) to explicitly specify which sharding strategy should be used in the write path
    • -experimental.distributor.user-subring-size flag renamed to -distributor.ingestion-tenant-shard-size
    • user_subring_size limit YAML config option renamed to ingestion_tenant_shard_size
  • [CHANGE] Dropped "blank Alertmanager configuration; using fallback" message from Info to Debug level. #3205
  • [CHANGE] Zone-awareness replication for time-series now should be explicitly enabled in the distributor via the -distributor.zone-awareness-enabled CLI flag (or its respective YAML config option). Before, zone-aware replication was implicitly enabled if a zone was set on ingesters. #3200
  • [CHANGE] Removed the deprecated CLI flag -config-yaml. You should use -schema-config-file instead. #3225
  • [CHANGE] Enforced the HTTP method required by some API endpoints which did (incorrectly) allow any method before that. #3228

  • [CHANGE] cortex_alertmanager_config_invalid has been removed in favor of cortex_alertmanager_config_last_reload_successful. #3289
  • [CHANGE] Query-frontend: POST requests whose body size exceeds 10MiB will be rejected. The max body size can be customised via -frontend.max-body-size. #3276
  • [FEATURE] Shuffle sharding: added support for shuffle-sharding queriers in the query-frontend. When configured (-frontend.max-queriers-per-tenant globally, or using per-tenant limit max_queriers_per_tenant), each tenants's requests will be handled by different set of queriers. #3113 #3257
  • [FEATURE] Shuffle sharding: added support for shuffle-sharding ingesters on the read path. When ingesters shuffle-sharding is enabled and -querier.shuffle-sharding-ingesters-lookback-period is set, queriers will fetch in-memory series from the minimum set of required ingesters, selecting only ingesters which may have received series since 'now - lookback period'. #3252
  • [FEATURE] Query-frontend: added compression config to support results cache with compression. #3217
  • [FEATURE] Add OpenStack Swift support to blocks storage. #3303
  • [FEATURE] Added support for applying Prometheus relabel configs on series received by the distributor. A metric_relabel_configs field has been added to the per-tenant limits configuration. #3329
  • [FEATURE] Support for Cassandra client SSL certificates. #3384
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Ruler: Introduces two new limits -ruler.max-rules-per-rule-group and -ruler.max-rule-groups-per-tenant to control the number of rules per rule group and the total number of rule groups for a given user. They are disabled by default. #3366
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Allow to specify multiple comma-separated Cortex services to -target CLI option (or its respective YAML config option). For example, -target=all,compactor can be used to start Cortex single-binary with compactor as well. #3275
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Expose additional HTTP configs for the S3 backend client. New flag are listed below: #3244
    • -blocks-storage.s3.http.idle-conn-timeout
    • -blocks-storage.s3.http.response-header-timeout
    • -blocks-storage.s3.http.insecure-skip-verify
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Added cortex_query_frontend_connected_clients metric to show the number of workers currently connected to the frontend. #3207
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Shuffle sharding: improved shuffle sharding in the write path. Shuffle sharding now should be explicitly enabled via -distributor.sharding-strategy CLI flag (or its respective YAML config option) and guarantees stability, consistency, shuffling and balanced zone-awareness properties. #3090 #3214
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Ingester: added new metric cortex_ingester_active_series to track active series more accurately. Also added options to control whether active series tracking is enabled (-ingester.active-series-enabled, defaults to false), and how often this metric is updated (-ingester.active-series-update-period) and max idle time for series to be considered inactive (-ingester.active-series-idle-timeout). #3153
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Store-gateway: added zone-aware replication support to blocks replication in the store-gateway. #3200
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Store-gateway: exported new metrics. #3231
    • cortex_bucket_store_cached_series_fetch_duration_seconds
    • cortex_bucket_store_cached_postings_fetch_duration_seconds
    • cortex_bucket_stores_gate_queries_max
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Added -version flag to Cortex. #3233
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Hash ring: added instance registered timestamp to the ring. #3248
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Reduce tail latency by smoothing out spikes in rate of chunk flush operations. #3191
  • [ENHANCEMENT] User Cortex as User Agent in http requests issued by Configs DB client. #3264
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Experimental Ruler API: Fetch rule groups from object storage in parallel. #3218
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Chunks GCS object storage client uses the fields selector to limit the payload size when listing objects in the bucket. #3218 #3292
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Added shuffle sharding support to ruler. Added new metric cortex_ruler_sync_rules_total. #3235
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Return an explicit error when the store-gateway is explicitly requested without a blocks storage engine. #3287
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Ruler: only load rules that belong to the ruler. Improves rules synching performances when ruler sharding is enabled. #3269
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Added -<prefix>.redis.tls-insecure-skip-verify flag. #3298
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Added cortex_alertmanager_config_last_reload_successful_seconds metric to show timestamp of last successful AM config reload. #3289
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Blocks storage: reduced number of bucket listing operations to list block content (applies to newly created blocks only). #3363
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Ruler: Include the tenant ID on the notifier logs. #3372
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Blocks storage Compactor: Added -compactor.enabled-tenants and -compactor.disabled-tenants to explicitly enable or disable compaction of specific tenants. #3385
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Blocks storage ingester: Creating checkpoint only once even when there are multiple Head compactions in a single Compact() call. #3373
  • [BUGFIX] Blocks storage ingester: Read repair memory-mapped chunks file which can end up being empty on abrupt shutdowns combined with faulty disks. #3373
  • [BUGFIX] Blocks storage ingester: Close TSDB resources on failed startup preventing ingester OOMing. #3373
  • [BUGFIX] No-longer-needed ingester operations for queries triggered by queriers and rulers are now canceled. #3178
  • [BUGFIX] Ruler: directories in the configured rules-path will be removed on startup and shutdown in order to ensure they don't persist between runs. #3195
  • [BUGFIX] Handle hash-collisions in the query path. #3192
  • [BUGFIX] Check for postgres rows errors. #3197
  • [BUGFIX] Ruler Experimental API: Don't allow rule groups without names or empty rule groups. #3210
  • [BUGFIX] Experimental Alertmanager API: Do not allow empty Alertmanager configurations or bad template filenames to be submitted through the configuration API. #3185
  • [BUGFIX] Reduce failures to update heartbeat when using Consul. #3259
  • [BUGFIX] When using ruler sharding, moving all user rule groups from ruler to a different one and then back could end up with some user groups not being evaluated at all. #3235
  • [BUGFIX] Fixed shuffle sharding consistency when zone-awareness is enabled and the shard size is increased or instances in a new zone are added. #3299
  • [BUGFIX] Use a valid grpc header when logging IP addresses. #3307
  • [BUGFIX] Fixed the metric cortex_prometheus_rule_group_duration_seconds in the Ruler, it wouldn't report any values. #3310

  • [BUGFIX] Blocks storage: Avoid creating blocks larger than configured block range period on forced compaction and when TSDB is idle. #3344
  • [BUGFIX] Shuffle sharding: fixed max global series per user/metric limit when shuffle sharding and -distributor.shard-by-all-labels=true are both enabled in distributor. When using these global limits you should now set -distributor.sharding-strategy and -distributor.zone-awareness-enabled to ingesters too. #3369
  • [BUGFIX] Slow query logging: when using downstream server request parameters were not logged. #3276
  • [BUGFIX] Fixed tenant detection in the ruler and alertmanager API when running without auth. #3343

Blocksconvert

  • [ENHANCEMENT] Blocksconvert – Builder: download plan file locally before processing it. #3209
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Blocksconvert – Cleaner: added new tool for deleting chunks data. #3283
