Web Console 2020.02.00 Release Notes

What’s New in This Release

Introduction

GridGain® Web Console is a free monitoring and management tool for Apache® Ignite™ and GridGain applications. Use Web Console to load and query data across caches, monitor performance metrics, facilitate rolling upgrades, take snapshots for backup and recovery, and migrate data across data centers. The latest Web Console 2020.02.00 release includes new features to search and load data into a Cache, bug fixes, and security updates to third party libraries.

New Cache load and search options

In the Monitoring view, two new actions have been added to the Cache’s table.

  • Load Cache - Under the Action menu, selecting Load to add

  • Cache Get - Under the Action menu, select Get Value. The search wizard can specify Type, Value, and more.

These new options make it easier to search caches by an arbitrary key and simplifies loading data.

Note: Cache Get supports clusters base on GridGain 8.7.13+ and 8.5.17+

Refactoring of ignite-web-console to gridgain-web-console

References to ignite-web-console have now been refactored to gridgain-web-console. This includes the launch scripts for Web Console and Web Agent.
