- Added support for out-of-order log ingestion and a new hybrid “Simple Scalable Deployment” mode, simplifying scaling without Kubernetes.
- Introduced several feature enhancements: Promtail Kafka consumer, HTTP ndjson/plaintext ingestion, LogQL group operators and date/time formatting, stable recording rules, and a smaller default config.
- Updated default limits and enabled an in‑memory FIFO cache, which may increase memory usage; also added a security fix that restricts HTTP methods to prevent unauthorized queries.
