This topic describes the release notes for the Nacos engine in Microservices Engine (MSE).

Each edition of the Nacos engine provides open source Nacos versions and MSE Nacos versions based on open source features.

  • Open source Nacos versions: the versions of open source Nacos.

  • MSE Nacos versions: These versions are developed based on open source Nacos versions and provide higher capabilities and fast iterations.

Professional Edition or Developer Edition

Open source Nacos version

MSE Nacos version

Description

2.3.2

2.3.2.0

  • Supports Alibaba Cloud RAM V4 signatures.

  • Supports the ActionTrail feature. For more information, see What is ActionTrail?.

  • Synchronizes the code of open source Nacos 2.3.2.

  • Allows you to adjust the retention period of historical configurations based on your business requirements.

  • Records operator information when configurations are changed.

  • Optimizes performance of capabilities such as the data pushing of Google Remote Procedure Call (gRPC) for service discovery and the performance of the login interface. The core capability performance is improved to more than twice the performance of open source or self-managed Nacos.

  • Enhances the throttling capability of internal interfaces.

  • Optimizes the logic for tag-based canary releases and supports the configuration of the upper limit on the number of canary versions.

  • Optimizes configuration listening links and fixes frequent query issues.

  • Fixes specific potential security risks.

  • Supports Alibaba Cloud Resource Access Management (RAM) authentication on the service discovery (SD) API operations of Prometheus.

  • Optimizes the startup logic for the Eureka module to provide the read service after data is synchronized.

2.2.3

2.2.3.3

  • Supports tag-based canary release.

  • Optimizes the data push logic to shorten the data push latency of other connections caused by a data push failure on a connection.

  • Increases the default upper limit on the length of the metadata of a service provider to 4,096 characters.

  • Fixes the following issue: The CPU load in a cluster rapidly increases due to frequent calls of the login operation on some Nacos 2.x clients.

  • Fixes the following issue: The display of the namespace capacity is improper.

  • Fixes the following issue: If the heartbeat interval that is configured in Eureka is excessively short, the service fails to be registered.

2.2.3.1

  • Disables the open source console by default.

  • Supports the RAM AccessKey whitelist feature.

  • Supports the Eureka incremental data protocol.

  • Optimizes the check logic during an engine upgrade or restart. Supports graceful engine change. Improves the stability during an engine upgrade or restart.

  • Optimizes the logic for obtaining source IP addresses to improve the accuracy for obtaining source IP addresses.

  • Optimizes the throttling capability of instances to support more throttling features and improve engine stability.

  • Optimizes the logic for checking request parameters. Identifies error content of parameters.

  • Improves the performance of the Eureka module.

  • Fixes the following issue: When forced empty list protection is not enabled, the client in a version later than V2.2 cannot receive an empty service list.

  • Fixes the following issue: The number of service providers is incorrectly counted when a large number of service providers are registered with an instance at the same time.

  • Fixes the following issue: The limit on the number of configurations does not take effect in V2.2.3.0.

  • Fixes the following issue: Data is not pushed when a single xDS or Mesh Configuration Protocol (MCP) connection encounters an error.

2.2.3.0

  • Synchronizes kernel features of open source version V2.2.3. For example, the logon page in the open source console remains unchanged if you disable authentication.

  • Allows you to view the registered services, subscribed services, and listener configurations on the client versions that pose risks.

  • Optimizes the authentication-related prompt in the open source console.

  • Optimizes the logic for monitoring the push success rate. This optimization allows you to ignore expected triggering of empty list protection and prevents the decrease of the push success rate when empty list protection is triggered.

2.1.2

2.1.2.2

  • Optimizes the logic for clearing expired metadata of application instances that are registered with Nacos instances. This optimization allows you to immediately clear the metadata that is modified when the application instance does not exist.

  • Uses the automatic switching of running modes and accelerates the speed of automatic doublewrite stopping. This shortens the period in which the system is in the transitory state and inconsistent data exists.

  • Allows underscores (_) to be contained in the name specified by the clusterName parameter of Nacos instances.

  • Allows you to view push tracks after the information is successfully pushed to the Nacos SDK for Go.

  • Fixes the following issue: When a client is disconnected from a Nacos instance and an application is registered with the Nacos instance at the same time, data cannot be queried with a low probability.

  • Fixes the following issue: When a resource involved in authentication is configured at the dataId level, the status code 403 is returned for the listener configuration of the client.

2.1.2.1

  • Allows you to use the service registration and discovery features of Nacos instances for Java applications for which Microservices Governance is enabled. Code changes are not required for the Java applications.

  • Supports encrypted communications between a Nacos server and a Nacos client.

2.1.2.0

  • Supports GZIP compression and pushes of registry addresses.

  • Supports anti-fragility by imposing restrictions on the following items:

    • Number of connections

    • Transactions per second (TPS) value for configuration release

    • Queries per second (QPS) value for configuration reading

    • TPS value for service data pushes

2.1.0

2.1.0.2

  • Optimizes the logic for empty list protection, and narrows down the range within which empty list protection takes effect. Empty list protection is triggered only when necessary.

  • Fixes the following issue: The status code 500 is always returned after the engine calls an API operation.

  • Fixes the following issue: Horizontal notifications and Distro notifications fail during scale-in.

  • Fixes the following issue: The configuration obtained by the AES-256 algorithm is ciphertext when the Nacos 2.x client reads encrypted configurations.

  • Fixes the following issue: Invalid data is released with a low probability when data is sent to a cloud-native gateway.

  • Fixes the following issue: Garbled characters appear in configurations in Chinese that you obtained by using ACM-Node.js-SDK.

2.1.0.1

  • Optimizes the empty list protection mechanism in scenarios in which Dubbo applications subscribe to provider registration information from multiple registries. This optimization helps prevent the Nacos client from generating a large number of invalid logs related to empty list protection.

  • Optimizes the push task model to improve service stability when a large number of push tasks are implemented at the same time.

  • Fixes the following issue: out-date.is frequently logged on the Nacos client.
