v2.0.8 🎉
We are very pleased to announce the release of Pelorus operator 0.0.5, that is already available in the OpenShift Marketplace!
This release is packed with new features and bug fixes that make it easier and more enjoyable to engage.
New & Notable
Failure Time Exporter - PagerDuty backend
The inclusion of PagerDuty means that data on application failures can now be collected from a variety of sources, including Jira, GitHub, ServiceNow, and PagerDuty itself.
External Pelorus Exporter
It's now easier to monitor applications on a cluster different from the one where the Pelorus is deployed via documented external_prometheus_hosts option. This is made possible by allowing you to configure the Pelorus to collect data from exporters residing in other clusters or even outside of clusters (a simple HTTP connection to that exporter has to be made available from the Pelorus itself).
Webhook Exporter
In previous versions of Pelorus data was collected via tools that pulled data from various sources. In this latest release we are enabling users to push data to Pelorus. By pushing data vs. pulling users with security and infrastructure constraints will find it easier to collect and measure metics that also better fits their security requirements.
Introducing a new type of Pelorus exporter that enables integration with a wide range of build, deployment, and incident reporting software.
The Webhook exporter is capable of receiving data from any service that sends an appropriate HTTP POST request.
Moving forward, this Exporter will also allow for the creation of plugins that support other metric types like SLAs or SLOs, as well as the ability to receive webhooks directly from other services such as Jenkins or GitHub.
Usability Improvements (UX)
Improved OpenShift form to configure and create Pelorus instance
We have enhanced the Pelorus form for creating an it's OpenShift instance. Thanks to the reworked openAPIV3Schema, you can now conveniently configure a range of Pelorus options, such as exporter instances, Prometheus, or Thanos, directly through the OpenShift UI.
