Version: 1.14.1

Release Notes

1.14.1 (15 Sep 2023)​

Note: This version of OMNI Platform uses OMNI Agent v2.3.2 and Face SDK v3.18.0

What’s New​

Server​

  • Added a script for obtaining LexFloatServer license status. Now the license status can be viewed not only in the web interface, but also through the command line.

Bug Fixes​

Server​

  • Fixed periodic loss of activities sent from OMNI Agent.
  • Restored daily cleaning of TTL activities and samples.
  • Fixed a bug due to which, when creating a profile from a sample, the profile was not included in the search index.
  • Fixed a bug in the profile creation transaction.
  • Fixed a problem with recording the search index when adding multiple profiles to a new group immediately after its creation.

1.14.0 (11 Aug 2023)​

Note: This version of OMNI Platform uses OMNI Agent v2.3.1 and Face SDK v3.18.0

What’s New​

Server​

  • Updated installation kit and installation method. Now it takes less time to fill in the configuration parameters to install OMNI Platform.
  • Deployment and configuration of the cluster is allocated to the smc module (Self Managed Cluster). The number of dependencies has been reduced, the administrator's work path during setup has become clearer and more consistent.
  • Istallation is separated into platform and image-api modules. Now the installation is performed through a single entry point. Installation and deployment order is detailed to understandable separable steps. A separate module is easier to maintain in subsequent releases, which speeds up the process of delivering new values to customers.
  • Added support to all image-api, platform's processing and quality deployments for:
    • Horizontal Pod Autoscaler — allows you to automatically scale deployments, which ensures efficient utilization of the cluster resource
    • NodeSelector — allows you to select the nodes on which deployments will be installed. That saves resources by redistributing more load demanding services to more productive nodes
  • Added ingress proxy support to all image-api deployments. This feature allows you to use Image API services in OMNI Platform.
  • Added support for deploying the solution in Amazon EKS. This feature allows you to automatically scale ImageAPI services in the Amazon cloud. This provides efficient utilization of hardware resources and reduces costs for solutions that have a floating (not constant) load from end customers/services.
  • Added aws (Amazon Web Services) module to configure an environment for deploying the platform in AWS. In addition to autoscaling of applications for the current load on the service, improvements have been added that optimize the work of the administrator:
    • Simplified process of scaling for a certain load
    • High availability of the database (redundancy, fault tolerance, recoverability)
    • Cloud watch (the ability to use built-in AWS tools for logging and monitoring)
  • When creating profiles, it became possible to adjust the parameters of the Image API configuration objects, which allows you to flexibly configure the system for specific use cases.
  • A series of load and quality tests were carried out, as a result of which the stability and fault tolerance of the platform and agent were significantly increased, the memory leaks were eliminated.
  • Added the ability to use an external database. This allows you to use more reliable data backup tools on a single machine.
  • Removed 'platform' prefix from domain when deploying.
  • Updated score calculation formula in v12 recognition modules. This feature provides an easier-to-understand interpretation of the face comparison result.

Bug Fixes​

Server​

  • After updating OMNI Platform, the workspace went into the "inactive" status, due to which any API-requests to change data became unavailable.
  • Fixed a number of interface errors.
