Kpow v78 provides a major overhaul of our user interface and the brand new ability to search multiple topics at the same time in Data Inspect.
Multi-Topic Search
Klang in the kREPL already provides the ability to search multiple topics in a single query (and then play with that data in the kREPL), but that interface is programmatic and quite formidable - so we're introduced the ability to perform multi-topic search in our simplified Data Inspect UI.
This means you can now query multiple topics and filter the results with kQL all in a single query.
User Interface Update
This release includes a major backlog item to simplify overall user experience when using Kpow. That means changes to our navigation; removing the sub-menu options and placing them in a horizontal tab menu within the page; breaking long pages into shorter ones; and simplifying forms like Data Inspect.
The functionality of Kpow remains the same, we just do more with less. This effort is in anticipation of two future releases that will add many new features to Kpow.
Multi-Tenancy
Our next feature release will provide the ability for admin users to restrict visibility of Kafka resources by user-role. In effect you will be able to completely reduce your users experience of Kafka right down to only the topics, groups, and clusters that interest them.
Multi-Tenancy introduces a new Kpow-Admin role - users who have the ability to view all resources, simulate tenancies, escalate privileges, and so on.

Release 95.1: A unified experience across product, web, docs and licensing
95.1 delivers a cohesive experience across Factor House products, licensing, and brand. This release introduces our new license portal, refreshed company-wide branding, a unified Community License for Kpow and Flex, and a series of performance, accessibility, and schema-related improvements.
Release 94.6: Factor Platform, Ververica Integration, and kJQ Enhancements
The first Factor Platform release candidate is here, a major milestone toward a unified control plane for real-time data streaming technologies. This release also introduces Ververica Platform integration in Flex, plus support for Kafka Clients 4.1 / Confluent 8.0.0 and new kJQ operators for richer stream inspection.
Release 94.5: New Factor House docs, enhanced data inspection and URP & KRaft improvements
This release introduces a new unified documentation hub - Factor House Docs. It also introduces major data inspection enhancements, including comma-separated kJQ Projection expressions, in-browser search, and over 15 new kJQ transforms and functions. Further improvements include more reliable cluster monitoring with improved Under-Replicated Partition (URP) detection, support for KRaft improvements, the flexibility to configure custom serializers per-cluster, and a resolution for a key consumer group offset reset issue.
