+Authored by Clark Boylan, November 18, 2024
++ Welcome to the latest Zuul project update! We’re excited to + share our progress, recent milestones, and what’s coming up + next. This post covers the key achievements from the past + quarter and gives a sneak peek into the upcoming work. +
+ +Key Achievements
++ Over the past several months, we released + + Zuul 11.1.0 + and + Nodepool 11.0.0. These milestones bring many improvements + including: significant performance improvements, new + configuration options supporting large project configurations, + better control over job inheritance, and more useful error + messages reported to users. +
++ Many more new features and bugfixes are detailed in the release + notes. Follow the links above and head over there to see + everything that is new. +
++ We’re thrilled to see these updates make it out to you via + our most recent releases. These performance improvements, + features, and bugfixes ensure that Zuul continues to be + flexible for all of your continuous integration and continuous + deployment needs. +
+ +What's Coming Up
++ Looking ahead, we’re excited about the next steps in the Zuul + journey. Here’s a preview of what to expect: +
++ The Zuul web UI has been overhauled with these changes set + to be included in the next release. This update makes the web + UI much more responsive. +
++ Nodepool functionality will be + + rolled into Zuul. This gives Zuul operators much more + flexibility in how they build images as well as the ability + to precheck images before deploying them. +
++ The Zuul team, in conjunction with the OpenDev team, is + working to ensure these new features work well before they + are released. The OpenDev Zuul deployment is deployed from + HEAD and includes many of these updates already. If you are + interested you can see and test these changes in OpenDev today. +
