Join, Bucket Storage Backend, Query Quotas, UI Improvements
Bug Fixes
Dashboards and Widgets
UI: The time selector on dashboards now allow panning and zooming - like the one on the search page.
UI: Bug Fix - Ensure counts of fields and value occurrences on the event list are reliable.
Function: New function xml:prettyPrint()
Top Feature: Query errors will now be highlighted as-you-type in on the search page.
UI: Queries page removed, and delete and edit saved query functionality moved into "Queries" dropdown on search page.
Upgrading: After installing this version, it is not possible to roll back to a version lower than 1.6.10. Be on version 1.6.10 before upgrading to this version.
UI: Word-wrap and event list orientation is now sticky in a session, meaning revisiting the search page will keep the previous selected options.
Function: New function callFunction, allows you to call a Humio function by name. This is useful if you for instance want a dashboard where you can control what statistics your widgets show based on a parameter, e.g. timechart(function=callFunction(?statistic, field=response_time))
Function: The function top has a new
max=field
argument, that can be used to make it work as a more efficient alias a groupby/sort combination, liketop(field, max=value, limit=5)
is equivalent (and much faster than)groupby(field, function=max(value)) | sort(limit=5)
.Top Feature: Query quotas allowing limiting how many resources users can use when searching, see Query Quotas
UI: Bug Fix - Don't show "unexpected error" screen when Auth Token expires.
UI: Add support for loading a specific time window when launching a dashboard, by setting time= and window= in the URL.
Top Feature: Joins allowing subqueries and joining data from multiple repositories, see Join.
Top Feature: The "Queries" page has been replaced with a dropdown on the Search page, that allows searching saved and recent queries.
Top Feature: Bucket Storage with support for S3 and Google cloud storage, see See Bucket Storage.
UI: Improved Query Monitor in the administration section, making it much easier to find expensive queries. See Query Monitor
UI: Improve word-wrap and allow columns in the event list to be marked as 'autosize'. Autosizing columns will adapt to the screen size when word-wrap is enabled.
Function: New function json:prettyPrint()
UI: Allow disabling automatically searching when entering a repository search page, on a per-repo basis.
Configuration
Config: Autosharding can now bet set "sticky" which means fixed as set by user on a specific (input) datasource. The API also allows listing all autosharding rules, both system-manages and sticky.
Config: Add SHARED_DASHBOARDS_ENABLED configuration setting which allows disabling access to the shared dashboards feature - if e.g. your organization has strict security policies.
Config: COMPRESSION_TYPE=high is now the default compression type. Clusters running with default configuration, will change to high compression unless the configuration COMPRESSION_TYPE=fast is set.
Functions
Function: The implementation of the percentile function has been updated to be more precise (and faster).
