Changes compared to 25.2.0
Enhancements
Safe vault unlocking via key rotation
As part of our efforts to improve the experience of using Comet, in Comet 25.3.0 we have added functionality to automatically change Storage Vault access keys for some of our supported storage providers, allowing admins to manually unlock compatible Storage Vaults without the risk of data loss.
Vaults can also be automatically unlocked when specified criteria, configured in user policy settings, have been met.
The following Storage Vault types are currently supported:
- Comet Storage
- Amazon AWS
- Wasabi
- S3 Generic
- IAM Compatible
Annual schedule and retention options
Comet 25.3.0 adds support for setting yearly schedules and retention rules - great for long term storage, archival, and compliance requirements.
Faster retention passes
Comet 25.3.0 has made substantial performance improvements for retention passes on several storage types when large numbers of files become eligible for deletion.
