Release Highlights

  • Adopted Calendar Versioning — 25.0 replaces 21.02.9 and remains compatible with the 21.02 line.
  • Public Data Metadata Expansion — added support for OpenAIRE and DataCite standards across APIs, OAI-PMH and Web GUI; replaced the “Open Data” terminology with the “Public Data”.

  • Performance & Scalability Boost — major optimizations for large environments including infinite scroll, caching and batch request handling.
  • Web GUI Enhancements — improved responsiveness, loading indicators and stability across key views and large datasets.
  • Security & Stability Improvements — safer TLS configuration, better error diagnostics and improved system resilience under load.

Upgrade Notes

  • Version 25.0 follows the Calendar Versioning scheme and corresponds to 21.02.9 — mixed environments remain supported.
  • Some legacy TLS ciphers have been disabled — review custom configurations if you rely on non-default security settings.
  • OneS3 is still in beta; evaluate carefully before using it in production environments.

Full Changelog

  • VFS-11284 (Oneprovider, Onezone) The OneS3 service can now be deployed by Onepanel in an integrated manner (Oneprovider cluster). Both visual (GUI) and batch modes are supported.
  • VFS-11439 (Oneprovider, Onezone) Web GUI: Added support for deploying OneS3 in a Oneprovider cluster, improved the Web certificate view to display multiple DNS names.
  • VFS-11877 (Oneclient) Added support for storage parameters change in OneS3.
  • VFS-12079 (Oneprovider, Onezone) Added OneS3 service (currently in beta version) to Oneprovider cluster. The service can be configured when deploying the cluster via the UI or the batch mode (including Onedatify). It is possible to add the OneS3 service to an existing cluster using the UI or the REST API.
  • VFS-12259 (Oneprovider) Web GUI: Added support for JSON metadata columns in file browser.
  • VFS-12267 (Oneprovider, Onezone) Web GUI: Improved handling of the "service unavailable" error.
  • VFS-12376 (Oneprovider) Web GUI: Fixed broken share header when user has no access to root file path. Improved showing issues with access to the share root file.
  • VFS-12377 (Oneprovider, Onezone) Added possibility to deploy oneS3 service in already existing cluster.
  • VFS-12380 (Oneprovider, Onezone) Allowed to specify oneS3 service port when deploying it for the first time.
  • VFS-12417 (Oneprovider) Web GUI: Handling rare error, when auto-refresh is disabled after error on deleting files.
  • VFS-12443 (Oneprovider) Extended endpoint with file locations on storage to work with directories. Also directory storage location is now available in data distribution endpoint.
  • VFS-12459 (Oneclient, Oneprovider, Onezone) Reworked the concept of Open Data into Public Data; it concerns Shared collections that have been assigned a PID/DOI and are advertised via OAI-PMH. The collections may have different levels of licences assigned, not only the open ones - the rename is to avoid confusion The --open-shares-mode in Oneclient has been renamed to --public-data-mode.
  • VFS-12461 (Oneprovider, Onezone) Web GUI: Changed "Open Data" naming to "Public Data".
  • VFS-12475 (Oneprovider, Onezone) Onedata components can now be started behind a reverse proxy or k8s ingress, and the GUI will function properly. However, it's not yet possible to change the default ports or turn off SSL (this is TBD in the near future).
  • VFS-12554 (Oneprovider, Onezone) Web GUI: Improved performance of spaces/groups/tokens, etc. sidebar when there are numerous items by using infinite scroll lists.
