Month: 2026-05 | Repository: komodorio/helm-charts Key features delivered: - Telegraf plugin upgrades and compatibility enhancements across Linux (Alpine) and Windows images. Upgraded telegraf-plugins from v2.0.40 to v2.0.41 and from v2.0.46 to v2.0.47, aligning with upstream Telegraf base images 1.37.3 (Linux) and 1.38.3 (Windows). The changes are backward compatible with 1.37.x and preserve existing config behavior. - Implemented non-strict environment handling for Telegraf container commands to maintain compatibility with newer Telegraf versions while avoiding regressions in existing configurations. - Documentation refreshed and regenerated via helm-docs to reflect new versions and compatibility, including updates to charts/komodor-agent/README.md. Major bugs fixed: - Resolved compatibility gaps introduced by stricter environment handling by adding a non-strict env-var handling flag, preventing config regressions for existing deployments. - Upstream base image bumps include bugfix-only changes (1.37.3 and 1.38.3), reducing risk of breaking changes while improving stability. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Enhanced stability and cross-platform reliability (Linux and Windows) for Telegraf-based monitoring within Helm charts. - Reduced operational risk for users deploying updated Telegraf configurations due to backward-compatible changes and maintained config semantics. - Improved maintainability and onboarding through up-to-date documentation that mirrors the actual runtime components. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Container orchestration and Helm charts, Telegraf plugin lifecycle management, multi-OS support (Linux/Windows). - Upstream compatibility strategies (backward-compatible feature toggles, non-strict env handling). - Documentation automation with helm-docs, changelog-friendly commit practices (co-authored commits).

In March 2026 (2026-03), delivered a focused feature upgrade in komodorio/helm-charts that enhances observability with an up-to-date Telegraf stack across all metrics components. The work ensures consistent versions across multi-arch images (Linux, Windows, Alpine) and aligns documentation with the new releases.
