Release Notes

Feature Highlights

• Move to latest Bitnami Redis helm chart pr/1581 #1541 (ashutosji)
• Remove podsecuritypolicy from the Open Match helm chart Kubernetes manifests. This enables the helm chart to be installed on Kubernetes versions >= 1.25 #1572 #1540 (mridulji)
• Fix spelling in one of the examples #1585 (denizsurmeli)
• Unlock redsync locks for backfill functions #1578 (glindstedt)

Breaking Changes

• The Open Match helm chart no longer supports installing Jaeger.
  • The golang library Open Match used for Jaeger traces has been deprecated and moving to the latest version of golang made it refuse to compile. Any future tracing support will need to implement the OpenTelemetry standard (not included in this release).
