November release comes with enhancements on TLS Deciphering, such as TLS 1.2 deciphering, various and bug fixes.
First release of TLS deciphering was 1 month ago, and many improvements have been done after these few weeks of run.
October release comes with 1 major feature and various bug fixes:
I am thrilled to announce a major milestone for Spider: TLS encrypted communication deciphering is now available! 馃殌
This release represents a significant leap forward in achieving comprehensive observability for all your communications.
I dreamed of making this possible, and here it is鈥攁fter a lot of intricate engineering, it's finally a reality! 馃榾
All 43 microservices and UIs have been upgraded to Node 20 and Alpine 3.20, with latest security fixes. 馃挭
Since the introduction of new Whisperers agents in Go, these Gossipers have proven reliable, extremely stable and no
known bugs is left pending.
They even offer a simpler setup with standalone executables.
Nodes.js Whisperers are thereby officially deprecated, and TLS deciphering has only been implemented in Gossipers.
For years, Spider has been able to parse a second time TCP sessions
I've decided to remove this feature as:
This parsing step has then been removed from the deployed cluster, the configuration and documentation!
TCP session parsing storage has evolved for the second time.
The first time was to be able to have TCP sessions with thousands of HTTP communications inside: I had to remove the list of items from the parsing block.
This time was to be able to have parallel parsing of TLS and HTTP (or another) protocol without risking concurrency update.
July release comes with 1 major feature and some bug fixes:
To reduce Whisperers resource usage, and to be able to introduce new features afterward, I wanted to migrate Whisperers from
Node.js to a native language.
Trendy languages for this kind of work are Go and Rust.
Go being more used in Kubernetes ecosystem, and having a nice ecosystem, I decided to go for Go 馃槈!
