Summary

Kapacitor 1.0 is the latest version of a data processing engine for InfluxDB, which has undergone significant improvements since its initial release in mid-2016, with 33 new features and 42 bug fixes added to date. The new features include HTTP-based subscriptions, template tasks, Holt-Winters forecasting, alert reset expressions, group by fields, Telegram alerting, improved lambda expressions, and live replays, which enhance data processing capabilities and simplify data transport. Beyond 1.0, Kapacitor is planned to receive improvements to alert management, UDF snapshots, and more powerful algorithms, with API endpoints for querying alert states and revamped snapshots for easy model saving and restoration.
