The Spring Cloud Data Flow team is pleased to announce the release of 1.5.0 RC1. Follow the Getting Started guides for Local Server, Cloud Foundry, and Kubernetes.

Here are the highlights:

General Improvements

• Switch to Hikari connection pool and restructure code to use fewer connections.

• Several bug fixes in underling deployer libraries.

Dashboard

• Editing a created/deployed stream is now possible from the Stream Builder. The application and deployment properties can be edited and re-deployed. The App version can be switched, too.

• A new paginator component is added to all the list page. Switching from a list of 20, 30, 50, or 100 items per page is possible. This further simplifies the bulk operation workflows.

• Introduction of end-to-end testing via Selenium and SauceLabs.

App Starters:

• New release - Celsius.SR2

• Updated Rabbit source/sink to work on PCF

• Updated python apps

Kubernetes Server

• The client and the cluster version compatibility have be improved due to Core Workload APIs going GA. For example, a StatefulSet deployment for a partitioned streaming-pipeline dynamically resolves the version compatibility - no more hardcoded StatefulSet endpoints.

• Extending the annotation support added to the “pod” configurations, it is now also possible to add custom annotations to “jobs” deployment.

• Deploying with custom liveness and readiness probe ports is now supported.
