Stein Series Release Notes

0.28.0

Prelude

This was a quiet development cycle for the glance_store library. One new feature was added to the Filesystem store driver. Several bugs were fixed and some code changes were committed to increase stability.

New Features

  • A chunk size config option was added to the filesystem driver to allow some performance tweaking. The former hardcoded 64 KB is the current default value.

Upgrade Notes

  • Removal of the stores and default_store configuration options, which were deprecated in Rocky, has been postponed until during the Train development cycle.

Deprecation Notes

  • Removal of stores and default_store has been postponed until Train cycle to allow time to move multiple backends stores from being EXPERIMENTAL due to some unresolved issues with the feature.

    • Bug 1785641: Fix Defaults for ConfigParser

    • Bug 1808456: Catch rdb NoSpace Exception
