November 2024 – Helm charts focused on configuration clarity and release hygiene. Deliverables include: 1) Scale-out on disconnected mode configuration cleanup: renamed the configuration parameter from 'storeEncryptionKeyToK8sSecrets' to 'enableScaleOutOnDisconnectedMode' to clarify its purpose and removed the hidden 'enableScaleOutOnDisconnectedMode' option from the Akeyless API Gateway Helm chart as part of product simplification. 2) Chart maintenance and versioning improvements: bumped the chart version from 1.50.0 to 1.50.1 and clarified comments in values.yaml regarding clusterCache behavior when an existing encryption key secret is provided versus when it is not specified. These changes reduce misconfiguration risk, improve upgrade safety, and align product semantics with the intended behavior for disconnected mode scenarios.
