Juju 2.3.0 is here!

[Micheal B]

Looks great here other than the LDX on VMware which is what I need or at least part of it is. Wanting to run containerized openstack in kubernetes on vmware.  Unless someones has a better idea, I could try.

 

Thanks

 

Micheal

Subject: Juju 2.3.0 is here!

 

The Juju team are extremely pleased to announce the release of Juju 2.3. Juju is now more versatile, more efficient, and more configurable than ever.

Cross Model Relations deliver a new way of organising your software stack. Deploy a database in one model and connect it to an application running another, even one running on a different controller, or even a different cloud.

For containers at scale, Juju now integrates Canonical's Fan overlay network system. This allows containers to map network traffic to any other container on the fan network without distributed databases, consensus protocols, or any extra overhead.

Juju's support for bundles has made it possible to quickly deploy connected sets of applications for some time now, but no two use cases are the same. That's why we have introduced the concept of an 'overlay' bundle - now you can easily add your own configuration and tweaks to a bundle at deploy time. See below for links to more information on this and other key features.


## How can I get it?


The best way to get your hands on this release of Juju is to install it via snap packages (see https://snapcraft.io/for more info on snaps).


   snap install juju --classic


Other packages are available for a variety of platforms. Please see the online documentation at https://jujucharms.com/docs/2.3/reference-install <https://jujucharms.com/docs/stable/reference-install>. Those subscribed to a snap channel should be automatically upgraded. If you’re using the ppa/homebrew, you should see an upgrade available.


For highlights of this release, please see the documentation at

## Fixes
