Month 2025-10: Reverted Docker image tags from 4.14.0-rc1/rc2 to stable 4.14.0 across all wazuh-docker services (manager, indexer, dashboard, agent) and configurations (multi-node, single-node, agent-only). Commits involved: 0e1fa7f1c045ab5e21de84570fd15adfa49436e2; 17d61960d5f47efed7be93b2e56674d389416449. This rollback ensures deployments use a validated release, reducing RC-related variability and deployment failures. Updated deployment manifests and CI/CD signals to reflect stable releases. Affected areas include wazuh-manager, wazuh-indexer, wazuh-dashboard, and wazuh-agent across all deployment topologies. Overall impact: Improved production reliability and consistency, lower risk of RC drift, and streamlined operations for multi-environment deployments. Business value includes more predictable releases, easier maintenance, and faster incident resolution. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Docker image tagging and release management, multi-service coordination, manifest/configuration updates, CI/CD alignment, and environment parity across complex deployments.

2025-09 Monthly Summary: Implemented deployment stability enhancements by enforcing stable Docker and Kubernetes image tags across two repositories (wazuh-docker and wazuh-kubernetes). This involved reverting pre-release tags (RC/alpha) to stable releases and aligning all components to tested versions (4.13.0 and 4.14.0) to ensure reliable deployments. The changes reduce tag drift, minimize untested image usage, and improve rollout predictability across environments. Technologies demonstrated include Docker image tagging discipline, Kubernetes deployment configuration, and solid release engineering practices. Overall impact includes improved uptime, lower risk of post-deploy hotfixes, and stronger confidence in deployment pipelines.

July 2025 monthly summary: Stabilized Docker deployments for wazuh-docker by enforcing the official 4.13.0 stable image across all deployment modes (multi-node, single-node, and agent configurations including manager, indexer, and dashboard). This work involved reverting beta/RC image tags to the stable release to ensure deployments pull official images, reducing deployment risk and support friction.

June 2025 monthly summary highlighting key features delivered, major bugs fixed, and overall business/technical impact across wazuh-docker, wazuh-kubernetes, wazuh-ansible, and wazuh-virtual-machines. Emphasis on security monitoring improvements, data integrity, deployment stability, and consistent release governance.

May 2025 monthly summary: Focused release-hygiene improvements across two repos to improve clarity and deployment reliability. In wazuh-virtual-machines, removed outdated 4.12.2 references from the CHANGELOG to align with the current release state ahead of 4.14.0. In wazuh-kubernetes, coordinated Docker image tag management to align across components with release candidate 4.12.1-rc1 for testing, followed by reverting to the stable 4.12.1 to ensure production deployments use officially released components. No major bugs fixed this month. Overall impact: reduces release confusion, minimizes deployment risk, and strengthens cross-repo release discipline. Technologies and skills demonstrated: release tagging and RC workflow, changelog hygiene, Docker image tagging, cross-repo coordination, and branch hygiene.

April 2025 monthly summary focusing on release hygiene, multi-arch support, and deployment reliability across wazuh-virtual-machines, wazuh-ansible, and wazuh-docker. Key outcomes include corrections to release notes, ARM64 release-readiness refinements, and stabilized image tagging for deployments.

March 2025 release engineering sprint focused on RC2 for 4.11.1 and subsequent 4.11.2 for Kubernetes. Key activities included RC2 prep across wazuh-ansible, wazuh-docker, and wazuh-installation-assistant, deployment stabilization by reverting RC2 to stable, installer RC2 support and versioning cleanup, a bug fix for wazuh_major version formatting with changelog update, and initiating the 4.11.2 release in wazuh-kubernetes with version tag updates and changelog.

February 2025 monthly summary focusing on key features delivered, major bugs fixed, impact, and technologies demonstrated across the wazuh repos. Highlights include cross-repo release readiness for 4.11.1, RC testing enablement in wazuh-docker, metadata fixes, and 4.12 preparation in Puppet, with changelog hygiene improvements. This work supported release velocity, alignment across components, and more reliable deployments.

January 2025 monthly summary focused on release management, versioning discipline, and installation tooling across the wazuh repositories. Delivered RC-ready version bumps, consolidated 4.10.x release/version strategy with Docker image tag alignment, and enhanced installation workflows with dynamic development tag resolution, alpha-stage support, and improved Filebeat template handling. These efforts improve release predictability, reduce deployment risk, and accelerate RC readiness for customers.

December 2024 monthly summary focusing on key accomplishments, major fixes, and technical impact across the wazuh repo family. Delivered release readiness, stability improvements, and enhanced automation with clear business value: faster, safer releases, improved user transparency, and stronger CI/CD practices.

November 2024 monthly summary: Across wazuh/wazuh-installation-assistant, wazuh/wazuh-virtual-machines, wazuh/wazuh-ansible, and wazuh/wazuh-docker, delivered substantial improvements in CI/CD reliability, build/release readiness, and release governance. Key outcomes include robust CI/CD testing and PR workflows for the Installation Assistant, standardized AMI/OVA build inputs with added OVA revision, focused versioning for 4.10.0 pre-releases (alpha3 and beta1), and tightened Docker image tagging and release documentation. These efforts improved build stability, reduced manual release toil, and enhanced visibility into release readiness, directly supporting faster delivery of secure, well-versioned deployments.
