The v0.12.2-alpha release introduces data streaming and key-pair authentication for the Snowflake data connector, enables general append mode data refreshes for time-series data, improves connectivity error messages, adds nested folders support for the S3 data connector, and exposes nodeSelector and affinity keys in the Helm chart for better Kubernetes management.

Highlights​

  • Improved Connectivity Error Messages: Error messages provide clearer, actionable guidance for misconfigured settings or unreachable data connectors.

  • Snowflake Data Connector Improvements: Enables data streaming by default and adds support for key-pair authentication in addition to passwords.

  • API for Refresh SQL Updates: Update dataset Refresh SQL via API.

  • Append Data Refresh: Append mode data refreshes for time-series data are now supported for all data connectors. Specify a dataset time_column with refresh_mode: append to only fetch data more recent than the latest local data.

  • Docker Image Update: The spiceai/spiceai:latest Docker image now includes the ODBC data connector. For a smaller footprint, use spiceai/spiceai:latest-slim.

  • Helm Chart Improvements: nodeSelector and affinity keys are now supported in the Helm chart for improved Kubernetes deployment management.

Breaking Changes​

  • API to trigger accelerated dataset refreshes has changed from POST /v1/datasets/:name/refresh to POST /v1/datasets/:name/acceleration/refresh to be consistent with the Spicepod.yaml structure.

The v0.10.1-alpha release focuses on stability, bug fixes, and usability by improving error messages when using SQLite data accelerators, improving the PostgreSQL support, and adding a basic Helm chart.

Highlights in v0.10.1-alpha​

Improved PostgreSQL support for Data Connectors TLS is now supported with PostgreSQL Data Connectors and there is improved VARCHAR and BPCHAR conversions through Spice.

Improved Error messages Simplified error messages from Spice when propagating errors from Data Connectors and Accelerator Engines.

Spice Pods Command The spice pods command can give you quick statistics about models, dependencies, and datasets that are loaded by the Spice runtime.

Kubernetes Helm Deployment​

Spice.ai can be deployed to Kubernetes using Helm. Here's a quick guide to get started:

Step 1. (Optional) Start a local kind cluster:

go install sigs.k8s.io/[email protected]
kind create cluster

Step 2. Install Spice in your Kubernetes cluster using Helm:

helm repo add spiceai https://helm.spiceai.org
helm install spiceai spiceai/spiceai

Step 3. Verify that the Spice pods are running:

kubectl get pods
kubectl logs deploy/spiceai

Step 4. Run the Spice SQL REPL inside the running pod:

kubectl exec -it deploy/spiceai -- spiced --repl
