Week of October 5, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week brought two Agent releases, including a patch that addresses the Windows startup crash and timezone bug from the previous build, plus wider eBPF stability and lower Docker collector load. Alongside that, the experimental Go IPMI plugin gained architecture support and remote BMC collection, and SNMP handling stopped leaking secrets into debug logs. A number of collectors and background paths were tuned, from Jetson power rails to proc file lookups, host label reloading and DEM GeoIP handling.

Two releases this week: v2.12.1 fixes the Windows Agent startup crash and timezone bug, stabilizes eBPF across more kernels, and cuts Docker collector load. Also: Go IPMI now covers all Linux architectures and remote LAN BMCs, and SNMP no longer logs secrets.

This week Netdata shipped v2.12.1, a patch release that fixes a Windows Agent startup crash and a timezone detection bug, stabilizes the eBPF collector across a wider range of kernels and libbpf versions, and reduces the load the Docker collector places on the system. v2.12.0 was also published, with its Windows installer removed from the release page because of startup crashes traced to an upstream bug. On the collectors side, the experimental Go IPMI plugin now supports all Go Linux architectures and can collect from remote BMCs over LAN and LAN+, the Jetson collector added per-rail power, and SNMP stops putting communities and v3 passphrases in debug logs. Host labels now reload from the config file the Agent loaded, and DEM gained Agent-aware GeoIP refresh and explicit RUM installation

What shipped

Why it matters

Version 2.12.0 brings significant monitoring expansions: native browser journey and audit collection through DEM, OpenTelemetry traces in early access, and out-of-band hardware monitoring with Redfish. Support for Redis-compatible servers and Windows clustering workloads extends platform coverage. The refactored native scripting system simplifies integration authoring by eliminating separate metadata files.

Netdata v2.12.0: OpenTelemetry Traces, Playwright journeys and Lighthouse audits in dem.plugin, Redfish hardware monitoring, Redis-compatible servers, and Windows Cluster Shared Volumes support.

Post for LinkedIn

Netdata v2.12.0 ships with OpenTelemetry Traces in Early Access, enabling observability across tracing, metrics, and logs. dem.plugin now runs Playwright journeys and Lighthouse audits natively. Redfish brings out-of-band hardware monitoring. New support for Redis-compatible servers (Valkey, Dragonfly, KeyDB, Kvrocks, Garnet). Windows gains Hyper-V, RDP, and Cluster Shared Volumes monitoring. The native scripting system now eliminates separate metadata files.

Week of September 21, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week focused on fixing synchronization issues between chart output and function responses that could corrupt protocol streams, improving StatsD as a standalone plugin, and addressing database and SNMP reliability across streaming and time handling. Several fixes target flaky tests and race conditions in the configuration and secret management systems.

Changelog entry

Example posts FoxPlug drafted from these changes. Not written or posted by the project.

Post for X

New: StatsD runs as statsd.d.plugin. Fixes: function response serialization, database flush deadlock, idle CPU on 32-bit time64, SMBIOS slot identification, host label streaming. zstd archives now available.

Post for LinkedIn

This week's updates strengthen Netdata's reliability across multiple fronts. StatsD is now a standalone plugin with better configuration options. We fixed critical synchronization bugs where function responses could be corrupted by chart output, database flush deadlocks in the libuv pool, and idle CPU consumption on 32-bit time64 systems. SNMP and SMBIOS collectors are more robust, host labels stream properly through parents, and zstd-compressed archives reduce download sizes by 30%. Over 40 pull requests landed, mostly addressing race conditions, test flakiness, and protocol correctness.

What shipped

Why it matters

This week adds hardware inventory collection via SMBIOS, significantly improves Redfish functionality with logs viewing and enriched hardware details, and maps legacy alarm notification systems to modern providers. Support and debugging capabilities also improve for journal access and secret handling.

Changelog entry

Post for X

New smbios_memory collector reports Linux physical memory inventory. Redfish gains BMC logs viewer and hardware enrichment. Legacy alarm notifications now map to Go providers. V2 charts restored.

Post for LinkedIn

This week's updates strengthen hardware monitoring and legacy system integration. A new smbios_memory collector provides Linux memory inventory tracking. The Redfish collector gains on-demand BMC logs viewing and expanded hardware details. Most significantly, legacy shell-format alarm notification configurations now map to 23 modern Go providers, enabling smoother migration paths for existing deployments.
