tip #

Released at 2026-01-24

FEATURE: Single-node VictoriaTraces and vtstorage in VictoriaTraces cluster : adjust -insert.indexFlushInterval from 30s to 20s to ensure a proper time gap with -search.latencyOffset. This is useful when ingest data is not real-time, as it helps reduce the probability that data can be searched by condition but is not present in the traceID index, resulting in failure to query by traceID.
BUGFIX: Single-node VictoriaTraces and vtselect in VictoriaTraces cluster : fix backward compatibility for the old index format. Previously, the old index format was not parsed correctly into the start and end timestamps.

FEATURE: Single-node VictoriaTraces and VictoriaTraces cluster : add duration and error metrics for service graph background tasks. Thank @chenlujjj for the pull request #100 .
FEATURE: Single-node VictoriaTraces and VictoriaTraces cluster : add accurate start time and end time to the trace ID index. This should help with the trace lookup by ID, and will free user from configuring -search.traceMaxDurationWindow to avoid missing the spans. See the pull request #81 .

SECURITY: upgrade Go builder from Go1.25.4 to Go1.25.5. See the list of issues addressed in Go1.25.5 .
FEATURE: logstorage : upgrade VictoriaLogs dependency from v1.38.0 to v1.43.1 .
FEATURE: Single-node VictoriaTraces and vtinsert in VictoriaTraces cluster : reduce CPU usage of the OpenTelemetry protobuf data ingestion in both OTLP/HTTP and OTLP/gRPC APIs. Thanks to @vadimalekseev for the initial idea .
