The CoreDNS team has released
[CoreDNS-1.7.0 ](https://github.com/coredns/coredns/releases/tag/v1.7.0 ).
This is a **backwards incompatible release ** . Major changes include:
2020-04-01 10:02:57 +02:00
* Better [metrics names ](https://github.com/coredns/coredns/pull/3776 ).
* The * federation * plugin (allows for v1 Kubernetes federation) has been removed. We've also removed
some supporting code from the * kubernetes * plugin, so it will not build as an external plugin
(with this version of CoreDNS).

2020-04-01 10:02:57 +02:00
As this was already backwards incompatible release, we took the liberty to stuff as much of it in
2020-03-26 12:29:47 +01:00
one release as possible to minimize the disruption going forward.
2020-04-01 10:02:57 +02:00
A new plugin, [*dns64* ](https://coredns.io/plugins/dns64 ) as promoted from external to a plugin that
is included by default. This plugin "enables DNS64 IPv6 transition mechanism."
### Metric Changes
It's mostly dropping `count` from `_total` metrics names:
* `coredns_request_block_count_total` -\> `coredns_dns_blocked_requests_total`
* `coredns_request_allow_count_total` -\> `coredns_dns_allowed_requests_total`
* `coredns_dns_acl_request_block_count_total` -\> `coredns_acl_blocked_requests_total`
* `coredns_dns_acl_request_allow_count_total` -\> `coredns_acl_allowed_requests_total`
* `coredns_autopath_success_count_total` -\> `coredns_autopath_success_total`
* `coredns_forward_request_count_total` -\> `coredns_forward_requests_total`
* `coredns_forward_response_rcode_count_total` -\> `coredns_forward_responses_total`
* `coredns_forward_healthcheck_failure_count_total` -\> `coredns_forward_healthcheck_failures_total`
* `coredns_forward_healthcheck_broken_count_total` -\> `coredns_forward_healthcheck_broken_total`
* `coredns_forward_max_concurrent_reject_count_total` -\> `coredns_forward_max_concurrent_rejects_total`
* `coredns_grpc_request_count_total` -\> `coredns_grpc_requests_total`
* `coredns_grpc_response_rcode_count_total` -\> `coredns_grpc_responses_total`
* `coredns_panic_count_total` -\> `coredns_panics_total`
* `coredns_dns_request_count_total` -\> `coredns_dns_requests_total`
* `coredns_dns_request_do_count_total` -\> `coredns_dns_do_requests_total`
* `coredns_dns_response_rcode_count_total` -\> `coredns_dns_responses_total`
* `coredns_reload_failed_count_total` -\> `coredns_reload_failed_total`
2020-04-04 00:30:06 +08:00
* `coredns_cache_size` -\> `coredns_cache_entries`
2020-04-01 10:02:57 +02:00
