    Other support changes

    • 32bit versions of Go applications
      OneAgent 1.181 is the last version that supports 32bit Go lang applications. 99.99 percent of all go applications are 64bit, which is why we decided not to support 32bit any longer.

      OneAgent 1.183 will be the last version that supports WebSphere version 8.5 with Java 6. Going forward, only combinations with Java 7 or higher will be supported
    • 32bit versions of Node.JS applications
      OneAgent 1.183 will be the last version that will support 32bit Node.JS applications. 99.99 percent of all Node.JS applications are 64bit, which is why we decided not to support 32bit any longer.

    Cloud platform support

    Kubernetes

    • OneAgent will support Kubernetes version 1.17 released in December 2019.
    • OneAgent Operator version 0.5 released into Operator Hub, Github, and Quay / RHCC.
    • OneAgent on Kubernetes will consider proper alerting when a pod is marked for termination
    • Detectable SSL errors are distinguished (untrusted, expired, hostname not matching) and presented in the Dynatrace UI.

    Cloud Foundry

    • Connecting to a CF foundation from the Dynatrace UI results in better login-failure handling. There is now a limit on the number of retries that can be attempted following authenticaion errors (5 per hour). This is configurable in custom.properties using the keys lockoutAfterFailures and countFailuresWithinSeconds.
    • Detectable SSL errors are distinguished (untrusted, expired, hostname not matching) and presented in the Dynatrace UI.

    OpenShift

    • OneAgent Operator version 0.5 released into Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog
    • Improved installation for OCP 3.11 by linking service accounts and secrets automatically

    Support changes

    • Kubernetes versions 1.12 or lower are no longer actively maintained by the Kubernetes community. The major public cloud providers offer managed Kubernetes 1.13 and higher. OneAgent version 1.181 is the last version that supports Kubernetes 1.12. Downstream exceptions for Azure AKS, Amazon EKS, Google GKE, Pivotal PKS, Pivotal Platform, and OpenShift may exist.
    • Redirects of requests to Kubernetes configuration API are removed with 1.181.
