Hello all,

Welcome to our latest release: VictoriaMetrics v1.90!

This is packed with cool new features, including releasing Graphite Query Language in open source VictoriaMetrics!

Here are the other highlights:

Release Windows binaries for single-node VictoriaMetrics, VictoriaMetrics cluster, vmbackup and vmrestore. This release of VictoriaMetrics for Windows cannot delete snapshots due to Windows constraints. This issue should be resolved in future releases.
vmui: automatically draw a heatmap graph when the query selects a single histogram. This simplifies analyzing histograms. See this feature request.
vmagent: Add support for VictoriaMetrics remote write protocol when sending / receiving data to / from Kafka. This protocol allows saving egress network bandwidth costs when sending data from vmagent to Kafka located in another datacenter or availability zone. See this feature request.
- This is a VictoriaMetrics Enterprise feature - see here for more on Enterprise
Log metrics with truncated labels if the length of label value in the ingested metric exceeds -maxLabelValueLen.This should simplify debugging for this case.

SECURITY: upgrade base docker image (alpine) from 3.17.2 to 3.17.3. See alpine 3.17.3 release notes.
SECURITY: upgrade Go builder from Go1.20.2 to Go1.20.3. See the list of issues addressed in Go1.20.3.
vmctl: migrate series one-by-one in vm-native mode. This allows better tracking the migration progress and resuming the migration process from the last migrated time series. See this pull request and this feature request.
vmalert in VictoriaMetrics Enterprise: concurrently read config files from S3, GCS or S3-compatible object storage. This significantly improves config load speed for cases when there are thousands of files to read from the object storage.
