Chapter 10. Changes in 3scale
From 3scale 2.14, support for deploying databases within the cluster as part of the standard 3scale deployment was deprecated. In 3scale 2.16, Red Hat supports only self-deployed databases, whether within the cluster or external to it.
This section lists current and future 3scale changes.
Deprecated features
- 3scale support for OpenTracing is now deprecated in favor of OpenTelemetry. In the upcoming version, 3scale 2.16, OpenTracing will no longer be available.
- 3scale Toolbox Command Line Tool is deprecated and we will no longer incorporate further enhancements. The recommended way for provisioning and automation needs, is the 3scale Application Capabilities operator.
- OpenShift APIs for Data Protection is now the standard and recommended backup and restore mechanism in 3scale. The old backup and restore procedures are deprecated and will be removed from future versions documentation.
- 3scale no longer supports slaves for Redis configurations. If slaves are enabled on internal Redis configurations, the operator will override and disable them.
