thanos-io/thanos v0.17.0-rc.0

on GitHub

Highlights

• BlockViewer now allows downloading meta.json of a block directly from Compact/Web UI.
• thanos query-frontend now supports query splitting and retries for label names and label values APIs.
• thanos tools bucket replicate can now copy particular block s by ID or time range.
• thanos query is now using dynamic lookback delta when downsampled data is used by default.
• More katacoda tutorials!
• Compactor is aware of 64GB index size limits and automatically avoids compacting blocks to a bigger size than this. Admin can
  also manually exclude block from further compaction by uploading no-compact-mark.json file to bucket block directory.
• Added thanos tools bucket mark for marking blocks with no compact or delayed deletion marker.
• When enabled ( --store.enable-index-header-lazy-reader flag), Store Gateway will mmap only those blocks caches that are needed for the queries. This option will be set to default in next release.
• ⚠️ Breaking change ⚠️ Dozens of metrics were renamed for consistency. (Particularly thanos_querier_... to thanos_query_... and thanos_compactor_... to thanos_compact_...

Added

• #3259 Thanos BlockViewer: Added a button in the blockviewer that allows users to download the metadata of a block.
• #3261 Thanos Store: Use segment files specified in meta.json file, if present. If not present, Store does the LIST operation as before.
• #3276 Query Frontend: Support query splitting and retry for label names, label values and series requests.
• #3315 Query Frontend: Support results caching for label names, label values and series requests.
• #3346 Ruler UI: Fix a bug preventing the /rules endpoint from loading.
• #3115 compact: now deletes partially uploaded and blocks with deletion marks concurrently. It does that at the beginning and then every --compact.cleanup-interval time period. By default it is 5 minutes.
• #3312 s3: add list_objects_version config option for compatibility.
• #3356 Query Frontend: Add a flag to disable step alignment middleware for query range.
• #3378 Ruler: added the ability to send queries via the HTTP method POST. Helps when alerting/recording rules are extra long because it encodes the actual parameters inside of the body instead of the URI. Thanos Ruler now uses POST by default unless --query.http-method is set GET.
• #3381 Querier UI: Add ability to enable or disable metric autocomplete functionality.
• #2979 Replicator: Add the ability to replicate blocks within a time frame by passing --min-time and --max-time
• #3398 Query Frontend: Add default config for query frontend memcached config.
• #3277 Thanos Query: Introduce dynamic lookback interval. This allows queries with large step to make use of downsampled data.
• #3409 Compactor: Added support for no-compact-mark.json which excludes the block from compaction.
• #3245 Query Frontend: Add query-frontend.org-id-header flag to specify HTTP header(s) to populate slow query log (e.g. X-Grafana-User).
• #3431 Store: Added experimental support to lazy load index-headers at query time. When enabled via --store.enable-index-header-lazy-reader flag, the store-gateway will load into memory an index-header only once it's required at query time. Index-header will be automatically released after --store.index-header-lazy-reader-idle-timeout of inactivity.
  • This, generally, reduces baseline memory usage of store when inactive, as well as a total number of mapped files (which is limited to 64k in some systems.
• #3415 Tools: Added thanos tools bucket mark command that allows to mark given block for deletion or for no-compact

Fixed

• #3257 Ruler: Prevent Ruler from crashing when using default DNS to lookup hosts that results in "No such hosts" errors.
• #3331 Disable Azure blob exception logging
• #3341 Disable Azure blob syslog exception logging
• #3414 Set CORS for Query Frontend

Changed

• #3410 Compactor: Changed metric thanos_compactor_blocks_marked_for_deletion_total to thanos_compactor_blocks_marked_total with marker label.
  Compactor will now automatically disable compaction for blocks with large index that would output blocks after compaction larger than specified value (by default: 64GB). This automatically
  handles the Promethus format limit.
• #2906 Tools: Refactor Bucket replicate execution. Removed all thanos_replicate_origin_.* metrics.
  • thanos_replicate_origin_meta_loads_total can be replaced by blocks_meta_synced{state="loaded"}.
  • thanos_replicate_origin_partial_meta_reads_total can be replaced by blocks_meta_synced{state="failed"}.
• #3309 Compact: breaking ⚠️ Rename metrics to match naming convention. This includes metrics starting with thanos_compactor to thanos_compact, thanos_querier to thanos_query and thanos_ruler to thanos_rule.
