Promitor Changelog

Moving container images from Docker Hub to GitHub Container Registry

Deprecated as of Janurary 1st, 2021 and newer versions will be published to GitHub Container Registry only

Promitor provides Docker images to deploy agents on any container orchestrator supporting either Linux or Windows. You can find them on Docker Hub and easily pull them on your nodes.

In 2020, however, Docker Hub announced changes to their image retention & rate limiting which can impact Promitor customers which is why we are moving our images to GitHub Container Registry.

This allows us to bring our artifacts closer to the project itself and improve how we manage Promitor.

Announcement: GitHub Issue

Impact: Migration is required for newer versions - Use our new Docker images on GitHub Container Registry.

Service Principle identity is moved to runtime configuration

Deprecated as of April 5th, 2021 and will be removed in new major version

Promitor has been using service principle authentication from its inception where the identity inforation was configured through the following environment variables:

  • PROMITOR_AUTH_APPKEY
  • PROMITOR_AUTH_APPID

However, as of Promitor Scraper v2.2.0 & Resource Discovery v0.3.0, users can choose how agents authenticate to Microsoft Azure by declaring the authentication mode in the server configuration:

authentication:
  # Options are ServicePrincipal, SystemAssignedManagedIdentity, UserAssignedManagedIdentity , SdkDefault.
  mode: ServicePrincipal
  identityId: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

With this new approach, users can use Managed Identity authentication leveraging no-secret authentication or keep on using Service Principle authentication.

Announcement: GitHub Issue

Impact: Migration is required - Use the authentication configuration to specify Service Principle authentication and configure the identity id in the server configuration.
