On Dec. 18, 2023, we unintentionally introduced some new features and two minor breaking changes in the Grafana 10.2.3 patch release. These changes were originally intended for Grafana 10.3, which we plan to release later this month, but these commits were merged into the 10.2.3 release branch early due to a mistake in our release process. Because Grafana 10.2.3 introduces more changes than expected in a typical patch release, there’s a risk of more bugs than expected.
It is our pleasure to introduce the first officially supported API with Rancher v2.8: the Rancher Kubernetes API, or RK-API for short. Since the introduction of Rancher v2.0, a publicly supported API has been one of our most requested features. The Rancher APIs, which you may recognize as v3 (Norman) or v1 (Steve), have never been officially supported and can only be automated using our Terraform Provider.

These enhancements offer the following benefits: Below, you’ll see seven enhancement areas involving installation and upgrades.
I can't believe it's already been a year since the release of Avantra 23 in 2022. Over the past year, we've released three minor releases, 23.1, 23.2 & 23.3 that brought meaningful quality of life improvements across the entire product. We are bringing new checks, new performance optimizations, and highly requested features from our ideas portal (login needed). Additionally, there will be two new editions (Automation & Observability) so that customers can make better use of the features we have, and we have squashed 100s of bugs in different scenarios that our customers encounter in their day to day.
Over the last few months, you may have noticed that many of our changelog releases mentioned the release of, and improvements to, Cycle’s native load balancer. While this load balancer still officially remains in beta status, we wanted to begin diving into the details around it a bit more thoroughly: What is it? Why did we build it? How can you use it?
