All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
The format is based on Keep a Changelog and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.
NOTE: As semantic versioning states all 0.y.z releases can contain breaking changes in API (flags, grpc API, any backward compatibility)
We use breaking word for marking changes that are not backward compatible (relates only to v0.y.z releases.)
-
#1097 Added
thanos check rules
linter for Thanos rule rules files. -
#1253 Add support for specifying a maximum amount of retries when using Azure Blob storage (default: no retries).
-
#1248 Add a web UI to show the state of remote storage.
v0.5.0 - 2019.06.05
TL;DR: Store LRU cache is no longer leaking, Upgraded Thanos UI to Prometheus 2.9, Fixed auto-downsampling, Moved to Go 1.12.5 and more.
This version moved tarballs to Golang 1.12.5 from 1.11 as well, so same warning applies if you use container_memory_usage_bytes
from cadvisor. Use container_memory_working_set_bytes
instead.
breaking As announced couple of times this release also removes gossip with all configuration flags (--cluster.*
).
- #1142 fixed major leak on store LRU cache for index items (postings and series).
- #1163 sidecar is no longer blocking for custom Prometheus versions/builds. It only checks if flags return non 404, then it performs optional checks.
- #1146 store/bucket: make getFor() work with interleaved resolutions.
- #1157 querier correctly handles duplicated stores when some store changes external labels in place.
- #1094 Allow configuring the response header timeout for the S3 client.
-
#1118 breaking swift: Added support for cross-domain authentication by introducing
userDomainID
,userDomainName
,projectDomainID
,projectDomainName
. The outdated termstenantID
,tenantName
are deprecated and have been replaced byprojectID
,projectName

- store gateway:
- #1008 breaking Removed Gossip implementation. All
--cluster.*
flags removed and Thanos will error out if any is provided.
v0.4.0 - 2019.05.3
This release also disables gossip mode by default for all components. See this for more details.
On Linux, the runtime now uses MADV_FREE to release unused memory. This is more efficient but may result in higher reported RSS. The kernel will reclaim the unused data when it is needed. To revert to the Go 1.11 behavior (MADV_DONTNEED), set the environment variable GODEBUG=madvdontneed=1.
If you want to see exact memory allocation of Thanos process:
- Use
go_memstats_heap_alloc_bytes
metric exposed by Golang orcontainer_memory_working_set_bytes
exposed by cadvisor. - Add
GODEBUG=madvdontneed=1
before running Thanos binary to revert to memory releasing to pre 1.12 logic.
Using cadvisor container_memory_usage_bytes
metric could be misleading e.g: google/cadvisor#2242
- thanos.io website & automation 🎉
- #1053 compactor: Compactor & store gateway now handles incomplete uploads gracefully. Added hard limit on how long block upload can take (30m).
- #811 Remote write receiver component ❤️ ❤️ thanks to RedHat (@brancz) contribution.
- #910 Query's stores UI page is now sorted by type and old DNS or File SD stores are removed after 5 minutes (configurable via the new
--store.unhealthy-timeout=5m
flag). - #905 Thanos support for Query API: /api/v1/labels. Notice that the API was added in Prometheus v2.6.
- #798 Ability to limit the maximum number of concurrent request to Series() calls in Thanos Store and the maximum amount of samples we handle.
- #1060 Allow specifying region attribute in S3 storage configuration
--store.grpc.series-max-concurrency
. Most likely you will want to make it the same as --query.max-concurrent
on Thanos Query.
New options:
New Store flags:
* `--store.grpc.series-sample-limit` limits the amount of samples that might be retrieved on a single Series() call. By default it is 0. Consider enabling it by setting it to more than 0 if you are running on limited resources.
* `--store.grpc.series-max-concurrency` limits the number of concurrent Series() calls in Thanos Store. By default it is 20. Considering making it lower or bigger depending on the scale of your deployment.
New Store metrics:
* `thanos_bucket_store_queries_dropped_total` shows how many queries were dropped due to the samples limit;
* `thanos_bucket_store_queries_concurrent_max` is a constant metric which shows how many Series() calls can concurrently be executed by Thanos Store;
* `thanos_bucket_store_queries_in_flight` shows how many queries are currently "in flight" i.e. they are being executed;
* `thanos_bucket_store_gate_duration_seconds` shows how many seconds it took for queries to pass through the gate in both cases - when that fails and when it does not.
New Store tracing span:
* store_query_gate_ismyturn
shows how long it took for a query to pass (or not) through the gate.
-
#1016 Added option for another DNS resolver (miekg/dns client). Note that this is required to have SRV resolution working on Golang 1.11+ with KubeDNS below v1.14
New Querier and Ruler flag:
-- store.sd-dns-resolver
which allows to specify resolver to use. Eithergolang
ormiekgdns
-
#986 Allow to save some startup & sync time in store gateway as it is no longer needed to compute index-cache from block index on its own for larger blocks. The store Gateway still can do it, but it first checks bucket if there is index-cached uploaded already. In the same time, compactor precomputes the index cache file on every compaction.
New Compactor flag:
--index.generate-missing-cache-file
was added to allow quicker addition of index cache files. If enabled it precomputes missing files on compactor startup. Note that it will take time and it's only one-off step per bucket. -
#887 Compact: Added new
--block-sync-concurrency
flag, which allows you to configure number of goroutines to use when syncing block metadata from object storage. -
#928 Query: Added
--store.response-timeout
flag. If a Store doesn't send any data in this specified duration then a Store will be ignored and partial data will be returned if it's enabled. 0 disables timeout. -
#893 S3 storage backend has graduated to
stable
maturity level. -
#936 Azure storage backend has graduated to
stable
maturity level. -
#937 S3: added trace functionality. You can add
trace.enable: true
to enable the minio client's verbose logging. -
#953 Compact: now has a hidden flag
--debug.accept-malformed-index
. Compaction index verification will ignore out of order label names. -
#963 GCS: added possibility to inline ServiceAccount into GCS config.
-
#1010 Compact: added new flag
--compact.concurrency
. Number of goroutines to use when compacting groups. -
#1028 Query: added
--query.default-evaluation-interval
, which sets default evaluation interval for sub queries. -
#980 Ability to override Azure storage endpoint for other regions (China)
-
#1021 Query API
series
now supports POST method. -
#939 Query API
query_range
now supports POST method.
-
#970 Deprecated
partial_response_disabled
proto field. Addedpartial_response_strategy
instead. Both in gRPC and Query API. NoPartialResponseStrategy
field forRuleGroups
by default meansabort
strategy (old PartialResponse disabled) as this is recommended option for Rules and alerts.Metrics:
- Added
thanos_rule_evaluation_with_warnings_total
to Ruler. - DNS
thanos_ruler_query_apis*
are nowthanos_ruler_query_apis_*
for consistency. - DNS
thanos_querier_store_apis*
are nowthanos_querier_store_apis__*
for consistency. - Query Gate
thanos_bucket_store_series*
are nowthanos_bucket_store_series_*
for consistency. - Most of thanos ruler metris related to rule manager has
strategy
label.
Ruler tracing spans:
/rule_instant_query HTTP[client]
is now/rule_instant_query_part_resp_abort HTTP[client]"
if request is for abort strategy.
- Added

#1053
For ruler essentially whole TSDB CHANGELOG applies beween v0.4.0-v0.6.1: https://github.com/prometheus/tsdb/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md
Note that this was added on TSDB and Prometheus: [FEATURE] Time-ovelapping blocks are now allowed. #370 Whoever due to nature of Thanos compaction (distributed systems), for safety reason this is disabled for Thanos compactor for now.
- query:
