v0.3.9

This release fixes Docker builds for ARM as well as upgrades dependencies such as LZ4 to fix known bugs.

v0.3.8

This release upgrades the version of SQLite to 3.38.0.

v0.3.8-beta0

This release simply upgrades the SQLite version to v3.38.0.

v0.3.7

This release fixes an issue where the wrong snapshot can be removed when multiple generations are present.

v0.3.6

Fixes an issue where LIST operations are performed too often and increase the cost of running Litestream.

v0.4.0-alpha.3

Refactor shadow WAL to use segments

v0.3.5

This release focused on refactoring the replica code to more easily support new replica types. We've added Azure Blob Storage (abs), Google Cloud Storage (gcs), and SFTP (sftp) replica types.

We've also included support for simple process supervision by adding an -exec flag to litestream replicate so folks don't need to use s6 when running in a Docker container. Kubernetes support has improved with a new -if-db-not-exists flag on litestream restore. It allows users to run autorecovery using the official Litestream Docker image.

The S3 sync interval has been lowered to 1s from 10s. It can increase cost if your application continually writes to the database, however, most applications do not so this reduces the window for data loss. We've added support for older versions of Linux such as Ubuntu 18.04, added built-in support for Filebase replica URLs, and updated replica metrics.
