May 1, 2025May 2025 Highlights for AutoMQ/automq: Implemented robust S3 WAL storage defaults and reliability enhancements, including a default path and log directory, plus a delayed deletion mechanism to prevent object leaks by renaming the executor service to utilityService and scheduling cleanup. Introduced CLI default S3 WAL config to simplify deployments. Fixed AWS credentials backward compatibility in s3stream by introducing AutoMQStaticCredentialsProvider and aligning with standard environment variable names, with tests validating the credential provider chain. These changes reduce operational risk, improve data durability, and streamline deployments, delivering measurable business value in reliability, cost control, and maintainability.

Apr 1, 2025In April 2025, AutoMQ/automq focused on reliability and stability by addressing a potential memory leak in the S3Stream module. The fix refines the stream deletion logic so that deleting a stream also removes its associated index, preventing memory leaks. A regression test was added to validate deletion scenarios, improving long-running stability and reducing the risk of production leaks.
