We're happy to announce VAST 2020.02.27, a maintenance release focusing on robustness and an improved UX.

The most notable changes concern the user interface and adjust the command line interface to match expectations from users that are familiar with common UNIX command line tools.

Breaking Changes

  • 🚧 VAST now requires Apache Arrow 0.16.0, and no longer supports previous versions of Apache Arrow.

Improvements

  • 🎁 The filesystem layout was changed so that log and database files are no longer written to the same directory. Log files are now stored in vast.log/, a path that can be independently specified with the --log-directory option. The long option for the database directory has changed to --db-directory. #758

  • 🎁 VAST now works with CAF 0.17.4.

Bug Fixes

  • 🐞 Due to a newly discovered performance regression in the hash index, all fields that defaulted to this index were changed to use their type-specific regular index type. #765

  • 🐞 A continuous import of Zeek logs will now always report all incoming events. Previously, the import could stall indefinitely if the volume of imported events was too low. #750

For a complete list of changes, please consult the CHANGELOG.
