Kpow v90.3 improves OpenID Connect SSO configurability and the performance of tenancy materialization.
OpenID Configurability
In release 90.3 we improve support for generic OpenID Connect integration by providing two new variables, OPENID_USER_FIELD and roles_from.
Environment Variable - OPENID_USER_FIELD
The optional environment variable, OPENID_USER_FIELD, defines which field in the access token maps to a user's name (default: sub).
RBAC Configuration - roles_from
The optional RBAC configuration field, roles_from, specifies whether to use the access_token or id_token for roles mapping (default: access_token).
See our OpenID Connect documentation for full configuration options.
Custom Serdes in the kREPL
You can now use Custom Serdes in the kREPL by using their label directly in your query in place of any standard serdes.
Improved Scheduled Mutations UI/UX
Kpow now correctly shows the details of failed mutations, and more clearly differentiates between scheduled and executed mutations.
Improved Performance of Tenancy Materialization
Thanks to user reports we detected issues with tenancy materialization in larger installations of Kpow (10+ clusters).
Work in this area reduces CPU utilization by as much as 50% for tenancy materialization.

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.
Release 94.4: Auto SerDes improvements
This minor hotfix release from Factor House resolves a bug when using Auto SerDes without Data policies, and adds support for UTF-8 String Auto SerDes inference.
