Cloud Support Enhancements
This release comes with the following enhancements for AWS, Azure, and GCP clouds.
Support for Launching and Terminating Nodes Across Availability Zones: With this release, users can scale nodes across their preferred zones, rather than being restricted to scaling within a single, specific zone.
NOTE: This applies to Kyvos Enterprise, Managed Services, and Marketplace.Kyvos Manager Startup Enhancement for External Repository: Kyvos Manager has been enhanced to wait for the external repository to become fully operational during startup, similar to the behavior of the BI Server. This ensures smoother initialization and prevents potential connectivity or configuration issues in all cloud environments where the external repository may require additional time to become available.
Improved Query Engine Scaling Behavior: In earlier versions, Query Engines (QEs) were scaled up or down in batches—for example, if there were eight Query Engines, five would stop, then start initially, followed by the remaining three at a later time. With this release, the scaling process has been enhanced to stop and start all Query Engines simultaneously, ensuring faster and more consistent scaling behavior.
NOTE: During scaling operations, any query executed by a user will be held and will continue loading until the configured percentage of QEs has started, as governed by the CLUSTER_SCALING_ACTIVE_QE_PERCENTAGE property.Support for Multi-Availability Zone Deployment: This release introduces support for deploying Query Engine, BI Server, Web Portal, and Dedicated Compute services across multiple availability zones based on user preferences in all clouds for automated deployment.
AWS Enhancements
