2024

Here are the highlights of new and updated features for this release:

The current API path /gateway/api to manage technologies has been changed to /technology/api.
Although deprecated the former path /gateway/api still works, it will be removed in upcoming releases.

For more information, see Saagie GraphQL API.

We have removed the "External Job" functionality from the product. This change is part of our effort to streamline the system and improve overall performance and maintainability.

Improvements: Optimized internal processes for better performance and system stability. Reduced system complexity by removing outdated components.

On OVH-managed platforms, you can manage user identities and access to Object Storage and PostgreSQL database through the OVH admin interface.

For more information, see Object Storage - Gestion des identités et des accès.

This new version of the Saagie installer is now also compatible with Kubernetes versions 1.29.x.

For more information on supported versions of Kubernetes, see the Compatible Kubernetes Versions.

The access to Saagie Helper has been enhanced for a better user experience.

To access it, you can now click in the bottom right corner. It will display links to three customer services.

For more information, see About Saagie Resources Monitoring.

To avoid collisions due to concurrent executions of one Spark job, the orchestration cannot be scheduled under one hour.

This behavior is exclusively for Spark jobs and pipelines embedding Spark jobs. A specific information message is displayed within the scheduled run block

For more information, see Job Settings and Pipeline Settings.

The following technologies have been added or deprecated in the official Saagie technology repository:

Here are the highlights of new and updated features for this release:

You can now rerun a previous pipeline instance from the Instances page of your pipeline.

You can choose to rerun an existing pipeline instance with the current environment variable values, or with its initial environment variable values, without any changes.

For more information, see Rerunning a Pipeline Instance.

You can now manage the GPU resources of your jobs as smoothly as the CPU and RAM. When configuring your job resources, select the GPU option to activate it.

For more information, see Job Settings.

A new option has been added to prevent instances from running at the same time on a scheduled job or pipeline. To enable it, select the Forbid overlapping scheduled instances option when scheduling your job or pipeline run. This will also prevent the accumulation of inconsistent workloads.

For more information, see the Scheduled Run settings of a job and pipeline.

This new version of the Saagie installer is now also compatible with Kubernetes versions 1.28.x.

For more information on supported versions of Kubernetes, see the Compatible Kubernetes Versions.

The execution timeline of jobs has been improved to display more details on the different types of status it has gone through.

You can now know more precisely what happens while your instance is queued, and understand the first 15 minutes of operations. You can view event details as soon as the Requested status has started by clicking the info icon in the timeline caption, or click the timeline itself.

For more information, see the job Overview and Instances page.

There is no new technology that has been added to the Saagie technology repository for this release.

Here are the highlights of new and updated features for this release:

When you push a pipeline using the Saagie CI/CD process, a link to the source code is added to the pipeline’s graph, on the Overview page.

You cannot change this link by hand. Also, if you create a new version of your pipeline via the Saagie platform, the link to the source code is removed as it is no longer relevant. However, the link remains accessible from the corresponding version of your pipeline.

For more information, see Using the CI/CD.

You can now modify your pipeline via the Code tab. The Code tab has been added to the Edit mode of your pipeline. It allows you to view, copy, import, and export your pipeline as code.

The Code tab is linked to the Design tab, which is the visual mode to edit your pipeline, the one you are already familiar with. Changes made in one will be reflected in the other. Synchronization takes place as soon as you switch from one tab to the other.

For more information, see Upgrading Pipelines.

In addition to existing environment variables that are set at the global, project, and pipeline levels, you can now create environment variables at the app level.

For more information, see the app Environment Variables Page.

This new version of the Saagie installer is now also compatible with Kubernetes versions 1.26.x and 1.27.x.

For more information on supported versions of Kubernetes, see the Compatible Kubernetes Versions.

Saagie is now compatible with the two versions of cgroups in Linux: cgroup v1 and cgroup v2.

For more information on supported versions of cgroups, see Compatible cgroup Versions.

The procedure for upgrading Saagie to this new version is different from the usual one. It applies only to the upgrade to version 2024.02 of Saagie.

It added some configuration process for Saagie platform on Kubernetes, where PVCs and secrets are labeled with installation IDs.

For more information, see Upgrading Saagie to Version 2024.02.

The button for upgrading your jobs, apps, and pipelines existed under two different names: Edit and Upgrade app/job/pipeline.

To avoid confusion, we have decided to only keep the Edit button. You can find it on the Overview page of your app, job, and pipeline.

The process to delete projects, jobs, apps, pipelines, and pipeline versions has been improved. Now, to delete any of these items, you must manually enter a confirmation message before you can confirm the deletion. This message is case sensitive. It prevents you from deleting items by mistake.

We have added the ability to sort the list of projects and pipelines for consistency. This also improves your user experience.

You can now find the Sort by filter in your projects and pipelines library.

Except from the Overview page of a job or a pipeline, it was not possible to know who has started an instance.

From now on, you can see who has started an instance from the Instances page of your job or pipeline.

If it is a manual run, there will be a Started by mention with the name of the person who did the run.

If it is a scheduled run, there will be a Started mention with a Scheduled badge.

When expanding the size of your storage space, a status badge is now display to indicate that the operation has started. Wait a few minutes and manually refresh the page.

There is no new technology that has been added to the Saagie technology repository for this release.

Here are the highlights of new and updated features for this release:

You can now move a pipeline from one project to another and on a different platform from the pipeline library or its Overview page. Click the kebab menu   Move to… and enter the required information. The moved pipeline keeps its jobs, conditions, pipeline environment variables, versions, instances, logs, alerts, and resource settings.

This avoids you to start from scratch and improves your productivity.

For more information, see Moving a Pipeline to Another Project.

Duplicating pipelines was already possible, but only to make a shallow duplication of it. You can now make a deep duplication of your pipelines.

This avoids you to start from scratch and improves your productivity.

For more information, see Duplicating Pipelines.

Just like jobs, pipelines now have an alias in addition to their name. A pipeline alias is required and unique to each pipeline in a project.

For more information, see Pipeline Alias.

It was already possible to increase the capacity of your storage space, but we have made some improvements to it.

As an administrator, the configuration for your storage space size has changed. When you will launch the latest Saagie installer, you will have to specify the step and maximum size of the storage space. These values will be displayed on your Saagie platform when creating or editing a storage space.

→ For more information, see Storage Space Size Settings.

As a user, you can manage the size of your storage space with a slider. Its minimum and maximum size is defined by your administrator when configuring the size of the storage spaces.

→ For more information, see Modifying Storage Space Settings.

From the storage space library of your project or app, you can now duplicate a storage space. The duplication includes a complete copy of the original storage space with its contents.

This avoids you to start from scratch and improves your productivity.

For more information, see Duplicating Storage Spaces.

When you push a job using the Saagie CI/CD process, a link to the source code is added to the package of the job.

You cannot change this link by hand. Also, if you change your job package via the Saagie platform, the link to the source code is removed as it is no longer relevant. However, it remains accessible from the corresponding version of your job.

For more information, see Using the CI/CD.

As an administrator, you can now configure your Saagie platform(s) so that you can log in using SSO. To do so, you must enable the SSO option when upgrading Saagie. When you will launch the latest Saagie installer, answer SSO at the Authentication Mode prompt when configuring the deployment mode.

→ For more information, see also Enabling Single Sign-On (SSO) Authentication.

As a user, once the SSO system has been set up, you will be able to log in to Saagie with the defined identity provider.

→ For more information, see Connecting to Saagie Using SSO For the First Time.
