0.36.0

Our latest release adds hooks to ZenML pipelines to handle custom logic that
occurs on pipeline failure or success. This is a powerful feature that allows
you to easily receive custom alerts, for example, when a pipeline fails or
succeeds. (Check out our video showcasing the feature
here.)

The release is also packed with bug fixes and documentation updates. Some
smaller improvements include an increase of the step_configurations column
size in the database to accommodate really large configurations and the ability
to click through to orchestrator logs for the Sagemaker orchestrator directly
from the ZenML dashboard.

Breaking Changes

Secrets are now handled internally by ZenML. This changes some behaviors that
you may have become used to with the (now-deprecated) Secrets Manager stack
component. The default behavior for the KServe and Seldon Core Model Deployer if
explicit credentials are not configured through the secret stack component
attribute has changed. Now, the model deployer will attempt to reuse credentials
configured for the Artifact Store in the same stack and may, in some cases, fail
if it cannot use them. In most cases, if credentials are not configured for the
active Artifact Store, the model deployer will assume some form of implicit
in-cloud authentication is configured for the Kubernetes cluster where KServe /
Seldon Core is installed and default to using that.
