  • MySQL

Kubernetes Version

The default supported version of Kubernetes was bumped from v1.31 to v1.32. (#670)

Golang Version

The default Golang version was bumped from v1.23 to v1.24. (#664)

Scheduled Backups now use VTBackup

Scheduled backups were previously introduced in v2.13.0 by #553,
the original design used vtctldclient commands to take new backups of the cluster.

This design has changed in v2.15.0, the VitessScheduledBackups controller now uses vtbackup pods to take
new backups. While it uses more resources, the new design is more fault-tolerant and will not take a serving tablet out of the tablet pool.

This change was introduced in #658.

Multiple Namespaces in the Default Examples

Since #666, end-users can learn how to setup a cluster on multiple namespaces
(e.g. vitess-operator in the default namespace, and VitessCluster in another namespace)
by following the default K8S user-guide.

The default operator.yaml provided as an example has been updated to contain all the configuration required to run the examples on multiple namespaces.

All end-to-end CI tests also run with two namespaces.

Rolling Update Settings for VTGate

It is now possible to define the rolling update settings of the vtgate deployment.
This enhancement was made via #676.

Upgrade Path

etcd

We have changed the default etcd version to 3.5.17.

You can upgrade by changing your YAML file to use the new Docker Image (quay.io/coreos/etcd:v3.5.17).

MySQL

With the latest version of Vitess (v22.0.0) the default MySQL version changed from 8.0.30 to 8.0.40.

In order for you to correctly upgrade, there is a certain path to follow:

1. Add innodb_fast_shutdown=0 to your extra cnf in your YAML file.
2. Apply this file.
3. Wait for all the pods to be healthy.
4. Then change your YAML file to use the new Docker Image (mysql:8.0.40).
5. Remove innodb_fast_shutdown=0 from your extra cnf in your YAML file.
6. Apply this file.

Vitess v2.13.0

Major Changes

Automated and Scheduled Backups

As part of v2.13.0 we are adding a new feature to the vitess-operator: automated and scheduled backups. The PR
implementing this change is available here: #553.

This feature is for now experimental as we await feedback from the community on its usage. There are a few things to
take into account when using this feature:

• If you are using the xtrabackup engine, your vttablet pods will need more memory, think about provisioning more memory for it.
• If you are using the builtin engine, you will lose a replica during the backup, think about adding a new tablet.

If you are usually using specific flags when taking backups with vtctldclient you can set those flags on the extraFlags
field of the backup strategy (VitessBackupScheduleStrategy).
