Notable Changes

Advanced Visibility

This release changes how custom search attributes are managed. If you are not using advanced visibility / Elasticsearch, you are not affected and can skip this section.

Before v1.10.0 it wasn't easy to add new custom search attributes to a cluster. It was a two step process:

1. A cluster admin had to first manually change the Elasticsearch schema.
2. Then they had to manually update the dynamic config.

v1.10.0 adds new commands and modifies existing commands to manage and view search attributes:

tctl admin cluster add-search-attributes --name ProductId --type Keyword
tctl admin cluster get-search-attributes
tctl cluster get-search-attributes

Note: Due to Elasticsearch limitations you can only add new custom search attributes but not rename or remove existing ones. This is why we removed 6 predefined Custom*Field search attributes from the default server config.
If you don't use them, you can remove them from your dynamic config before v1.10.0 deployment.

After the upgrade to v1.10.0 , when the Temporal Server starts up, it will automatically read the current search attributes from the dynamic config and save them to the cluster metadata database table. After that, the entire frontend.validSearchAttributes section can be removed from your dynamic config.

To browse existing search attributes, run tctl cluster get-search-attributes command. You will see search attribute output like the following:

Search attributes:
+-----------------------+---------+
|         NAME          |  TYPE   |
+-----------------------+---------+
| BinaryChecksums       | Keyword |
| CloseTime             | Int     |
| CustomNamespace       | Keyword |
| ExecutionStatus       | Int     |
| ExecutionTime         | Int     |
| Operator              | Keyword |
| RunId                 | Keyword |
| StartTime             | Int     |
| TaskQueue             | Keyword |
| TemporalChangeVersion | Keyword |
| WorkflowId            | Keyword |
| WorkflowType          | Keyword |
+-----------------------+---------+

To add new search attributes to your cluster you need to run the tctl admin cluster command:

tctl admin cluster add-search-attributes --name ProductId --type Keyword
You are about to add search attributes [ProductId:Keyword]. Continue? Y/N y

Custom search attributes:
+-----------+---------+
|   NAME    |  TYPE   |

| ProductId | Keyword |

|         NAME          |  TYPE   |

  "closeTime": "2021-06-02T21:11:41.364028543Z",
  "status": "Completed"
}
Search attributes have been added successfully.

The tctl admin cluster get-search-attributes command will give you the exact same output.
The admin command output has more info than the non-admin tctl cluster get-search-attributes command. It shows custom and system search attributes separately. In addition to this, it shows the actual Elasticsearch schema and state of the system Workflow Execution which is adding the search attributes to the cluster (can be useful for debugging).

Search attributes are cached internally and will be available 1 minute after being added.

Dockerfile changes

Dockerfile changes are mostly related to advanced visibility. Previously, if ENABLE_ES was set to true, the startup script would create the Elasticsearch index for you. Now this happens only with the auto-setup image (used by our docker-compose files) or with helm-chart. If you are using the server image you need to create the index manually.

Also Custom*Field search attributes are added automatically for auto-setup image to support compatibility with samples.

Breaking Changes

Beginning from 1.9.x, tctl / temporal-cassandra-tool / temporal-sql-tool, will by default perform host name verification if TLS is enabled. Previous versions (1.0.x to 1.8.x) will not perform host name verification by default if TLS is enabled.

As the result of the above changes:

• tls_enable_host_verification flag is removed from tctl
• tls-enable-host-verification flag is removed from temporal-cassandra-tool and temporal-sql-tool
• tls_disable_host_verification flag is introduced for tctl to opt out of host name verification
• tls-disable-host-verification flag is introduced for temporal-cassandra-tool and temporal-sql-tool to opt out of host name verification

Schema Changes

This release includes schema changes.

Before upgrading your Temporal Server cluster, run the schema upgrade tool to support version 1.5.

Schema update tool instructions are here:
https://docs.temporal.io/docs/server-versions-and-dependencies/#upgrade-your-version-of-temporal.

Notable Changes

This release includes enhancements to the following areas:

• Visibility DB config is not required if Elasticsearch is used for advanced visibility(#1497)
• Periodic refreshing of TLS certificates from files (#1415)
• Ability to inject TLS certificate provider (#1391)

Persistence Layer Changes

• Begin the migration of executions table operation using atomic counter (#1420)
• Add prev transaction ID attribute to history node table for events chaining & trimming (#1435, #1441, #1449, #1450)

Performance Improvements

• Perf optimization for NDC replication reducing number of DB queries if cluster is idle (#1392)

General enhancements

This release includes enhancements to the following areas:

• TLS certificate management (#1288, #1330)
• Authorizer and ClaimMapper selection (#1291)
• tctl (#1304, #1313, #1316, #1375)
• API error handling & metrics (#1283, #1285, #1312)
• Logger and dynamic config (#1371, #1393 )

Additionally, Kafka has been completely removed as a dependency (#1347), and the Server has upgraded to use Go v1.16

Persistence layer improvements

• Better error handling for no hosts available in the pool error when using Cassandra (#1342, #1343, #1344, #1345)
• dryrun option in schema tools has been removed due to being error prone (#1300)

Changes to metrics

Metrics that were previously emitted with the namespace="all" tag are now emitted as "<metric_name>_total".
These include, but are not limited to latency related metrics such as service_latency.
The "old" way of tagging metrics will be removed in v1.10.0
