Week of September 28, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

V3.12.0 ships major improvements to health and readiness checks: they now report structured data, support authentication, survive startup failures longer, and name failing subsystems. These changes make it easier for operators to monitor influxd startup and health status.

Post for X

V3.12.0 released. /health and /ready endpoints now report structured JSON fields, support authentication, and name failing subsystems at startup. Exit codes now match sysexits.h on known failures.

Post for LinkedIn

V3.12.0 is out. We've improved health and readiness monitoring: /health and /ready now report numbers as structured JSON fields instead of free-text, support operator-only authentication, name the failing subsystem on startup errors, and hold open after failed startup. Exit codes now follow sysexits.h standards for different failure types. Better observability for operators running influxd.

What shipped

Why it matters

This week's updates focus on operational visibility and stability. Users gain new per-user metrics for writes and queries to monitor usage patterns, adaptive caching to reduce manual tuning, and query limits to prevent resource exhaustion. Several fixes address race conditions and data integrity issues in core compaction and shard loading operations.

V3.12.0-rc.2 ships with per-user write and query metrics, adaptive caching bounds, compaction planning stats, and critical fixes for shard loading races and TSM level regressions.

Post for LinkedIn

V3.12.0-rc.2 is out with new operational features: per-user write and query byte statistics for usage monitoring, adaptive TagValueSeriesIDCache sizing to reduce configuration overhead, and detailed compaction planning statistics. This release also fixes critical issues including race conditions in shard loading and level regressions during mixed-level TSM compaction, improving both observability and reliability.
