v2.6.0
This release introduces Geographic Information System (GIS) filtering for streams, enhanced performance testing capabilities, as well as many other improvements and bugfixes.
Release Highlights
GIS Filtering for Stream Queues
Stream queues now support Geographic Information System (GIS) filtering, allowing you to filter messages based on geographic coordinates. This lets you efficiently query and consume messages from specific geographic regions without processing the entire stream. #1397
Latency Measurement in lavinmqperf
The lavinmqperf benchmarking tool now includes latency measurement support via the --measure-latency flag for AMQP throughput tests. This lets you measure end-to-end message latency during performance testing, providing deeper insights into your system's behavior under load. Combined with the new queue pattern support, you can now run more sophisticated benchmark scenarios across multiple queues. #1474 & #1471
Important Bugfixes
- Fixed critical segfault race condition when closing auto-delete queues #1529
- Fixed "lease not found" etcd error that could cause infinite retries in clustered environments #1519
- Fixed security issue: enforced authorization for metrics endpoint on management port #1521
- Fixed issue where permissions weren't cleared for connected users when revoked or deleted #1526
- Fixed UI issue where overridden effective arguments were not marked as active #1489
- Fixed handling of file not found exceptions when deleting orphan ack files 370bac2d
Changes Worth Mentioning
Memory Pressure Monitoring
LavinMQ now supports SystemD memory pressure monitoring (PSI - Pressure Stall Information). This integration allows better coordination with the operating system during memory pressure situations, potentially helping to avoid out-of-memory conditions in containerized and systemd-managed environments. #1484
UI Improvements
Queue and exchange features now display as complete words—Durable, Auto delete, etc.—rather than single-letter abbreviations for better accessibility and understanding #1470, #1454, #1463
Delayed message queue Naming
Delayed message queues now follow the format amq.delayed-<exchange name>, making it simpler to identify which delayed queues correspond to specific exchanges (applies to newly created queues only). #1461
Visual Enhancement
An ASCII art logo now displays during LavinMQ startup, making the service more identifiable in log files. #1482
Better Default Configuration
LavinMQ now automatically enables amqps/mqtts/https ports by default when TLS certificate and key are provided, simplifying secure deployments. #1487
