New in the release
Redis Enterprise for Kubernetes 7.22.0-7 is a feature release that includes enhancements, platform updates, and support for Redis Software 7.22.0-28.
Enhancements
- Added support for Redis Software 7.22.0.
- Enabled support for Active-Active databases (REAADB) in multi-namespace deployments.
- Defaulted new installations and upgrades to unprivileged mode, which uses a more secure security context without additional Linux capabilities.
- A new cronjob is created by the operator using the `redislabs/re-call-home-client.7.22.0-7 image.
- Updated supported Kubernetes platforms.
API changes
| CRD | Field | Change | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| REAADB | spec.participatingClusters[].namespace |
Added | Specifies the namespace in which the REAADB object will be deployed in the corresponding participating cluster. Make sure that the Redis Enterprise operator is configured to watch this namespace and that the required RBAC configuration is in place. For more information, see Multi-namespace deployments. If no namespace is specified, the REAADB object is deployed to the REC’s namespace in the corresponding cluster. |
| REC | spec.usageMeter.callHomeClient |
Added | Configuration for the call home client. For details, see the REC API reference. |
| REC | spec.securityContext.resourceLimits |
Added | Configuration that allows Redis Enterprise to adjust system resource settings. For details, see the REC API reference. |
Breaking changes
By default, the operator no longer sets additional Linux capabilities in the security context. If your deployment requires capabilities such as SYS_RESOURCE, see Enable privileged mode.
