Infinispan 15.2.0.Final
"Feelin' Blue"
It’s new. It’s blue. It’s Infinispan 15.2, codenamed "Feelin' Blue".
Without further ado, here’s a list of what’s new (and I promise to stop with the Dr. Seuss rhyming):
RESP endpoint
JSON
Infinispan now implements the Redis JSON API.
Lua scripting
It is now possible to run Lua scripts. The big advantage is that this works in Infinispan clusters, without having to worry about key ownership.
Server
All endpoints limit the maximum request size, which defaults to 10MB. This protects your server from abuse.
Use the max-content-length configuration attribute to change it to your liking.
Metrics
You can now disable exporting the base (JVM) metrics, which is desirable when running in embedded mode. Such metrics are usually exported by the application framework.
Console
The console sports a new look & feel, thanks to the upgrade to PatternFly 6.
Manage roles, users and access control for Principal Role Mappers from the console.
Fixes
Lots of these. However, should you find something that doesn’t work, head over to our issues and provide any details that help us debug and solve problems.
JDK requirements
Like the previous 15.x releases, you will need at least JDK 17 in order to use Infinispan 15.2. Infinispan also supports the recently released JDK 24.
Deprecations and removals
We are no longer building the native server, since it did not provide the same level of functionality and performance as our Java server. However, if you miss it, please let us know your use case, and we’ll look into bringing it back.
Documentation
Our documentation now includes * a complete list of our OpenMetrics and JMX metrics * a complete list of log messages As usual, many improvements, updates and fixes.
