1.14.0-beta1 (September 29, 2022)

BREAKING CHANGES:

• config: Add new ports.grpc_tls configuration option.
  Introduce a new port to better separate TLS config from the existing ports.grpc config.
  The new ports.grpc_tls only supports TLS encrypted communication.
  The existing ports.grpc currently supports both plain-text and tls communication, but tls support will be removed in a future release. [GH-14294]
• xds: Convert service mesh failover to use Envoy's aggregate clusters. This
  changes the names of some Envoy dynamic HTTP metrics. [GH-14178]

FEATURES:

• http: Add new get-or-empty operation to the txn api. Refer to the API docs for more information. [GH-14474]
• peering: Add support to failover to services running on cluster peers. [GH-14396]
• peering: Add support to redirect to services running on cluster peers with service resolvers. [GH-14445]
• ui: Added support for central config merging [GH-14604]
• ui: Detect a TokenSecretID cookie and passthrough to localStorage [GH-14495]
• ui: Use withCredentials for all HTTP API requests [GH-14343]
• xds: servers will limit the number of concurrent xDS streams they can handle to balance the load across all servers [GH-14397]

IMPROVEMENTS:

• agent/hcp: add initial HashiCorp Cloud Platform integration [GH-14723]
• api: Add filtering support to Catalog's List Services (v1/catalog/services) [GH-11742]
• api: Increase max number of operations inside a transaction for requests to /v1/txn (128) [GH-14599]
• config-entry: Validate that service-resolver Failovers and Redirects only
  specify Partition and Namespace on Consul Enterprise. This prevents scenarios
  where OSS Consul would save service-resolvers that require Consul Enterprise. [GH-14162]
• dns: (Enterprise Only) All enterprise locality labels are now optional in DNS lookups. For example, service lookups support the following format: .].service[..ns][..ap][..dc]`. [GH-14679]
• metrics: Service RPC calls less than 1ms are now emitted as a decimal number. [GH-12905]
• peering: adds an internally managed server certificate for automatic TLS between servers in peer clusters. [GH-14556]
• xds: Set max_ejection_percent on Envoy's outlier detection to 100% for peered services. [GH-14373]

BUG FIXES:

• checks: Do not set interval as timeout value [GH-14619]
• checks: If set, use proxy address for automatically added sidecar check instead of service address. [GH-14433]
• cli: Fix Consul kv CLI 'GET' flags 'keys' and 'recurse' to be set together [GH-13493]
• metrics: Add duplicate metrics that have only a single "consul_" prefix for all existing metrics with double ("consul_consul_") prefix, with the intent to standardize on single prefixes. [GH-14475]
• snapshot-agent: (Enterprise only) Fix a bug when a session is not found in Consul, which leads the agent to panic.
