Release Notes
If you are tracing RabbitMQ or Dubbo, we highly suggest upgrading your agent to 1.7.3 as it includes a number of bug fixes for the plugins.
Please see Plugin Issues below for more details.

1.7.2 release notes
1.7.2 key features
Support RabbitMQ Plugin
We're happy to announce the release of RabbitMQ plugin!
(Thank you @majinkai, @jiaqifeng for your contribution)
Max Response Time
Max response time has been added to the Response Time chart.
You may now check out the difference from the average value and max value.
HBase Namespace Support
Users using pinpoint in a shared hbase cluster may now specify their own namespace for pinpoint without polluting the default namespace by configuring the hbase.namespace option in collector and web's hbase.properties.
Please also remember that you will need to create the tables accordingly, using the namespace set above.
Enhancement CallTree
Add unknown node if not found.
Displays child nodes(remote only) if corrupted.
DNS refresh for TCPSender and UDPSender
When the ip list of domain name change, the TCPSender and UDPSender still connects to the old ip.
But since with 1.7.2, we obtain the latest address from DNS and connect to the new address.
Fix concurrency issue in DeadlockThreadRegistry

1.7.1 release notes
1.7.0 release notes
1.7.0 key features
Support VertX Plugin
VertX APIs are mostly non-blocking so it was incredibly hard to monitor them.
We hope Pinpoint can help in 1.7.0.
Application Inspector
This feature has a known issue.
Please check the known issues link.
(#3667 Can not show application inspector page occasionally)
Each application often have multiple agents running the same application, and it was difficult to check them all out in a single view.
With the introduction of Application Inspector, you now have a bird's eye view of all the agents.
Please refer to this guide for more detail.
Support ProxyServer Monitoring
With a simple configuration, you can now monitor proxy servers sitting in front of your application through Pinpoint.
Please refer to this guide for more detail.
Server Map Options
Directional search
Until now, searching 2+ depths included nodes not relevant to the application, resulting in overly complex server maps that took a long time to query/render.
Directional search option has been added to alleviate this issue.
(default) : Nodes called by the application will not look for other nodes that called them. Similarly, nodes that called the application will not look for other nodes that they called.
: Just as it is now, all nodes (regardless of their relationship to the application) will look for everything that they called, and everything called by them.
WAS Only
Looking for relationships between WAS nodes were often hard with database nodes, and unknown cloud nodes all over the server map.
Now you can use the following option to trim out terminal nodes.
Terminal nodes such as database and unknown clouds are not included in the server map.
(default) : Everything is included in the server map, just as it is now.
Deadlock Detection
It is quite hard to detect and identify deadlocks.
Pinpoint now allows you to identify deadlocks when they happen, and provides relevant thread dumps for you.
Average Response Time
Response Time chart has been added!
You may now check out your service's average response time in a blink of an eye.
RxJava 1.x / Hystrix observables Support
Trace support for RxJava 1.x and Hystrix observables have been added. Hystrix tracing now also requires enabling RxJava plugin.
(Note that this is a beta release. You must set profiler.rxjava=true and profiler.hystrix=true in pinpoint.config.)

1.6.1 release note
The following tables will be removed in 1.7.0.
Traces
AgentStat
If you are still using the tables above, please configure your collector and web instances to use TraceV2 and AgentStatV2 tables by setting the following options.
pinpoint-collector.properties
collector.span.format.compatibility.version=v2
collector.stat.format.compatibility.version=v2
pinpoint-web.properties
web.span.format.compatibility.version=v2 (or compatibilityMode if you still have data in Traces table)
web.stat.format.compatibility.version=v2 (or compatibilityMode if you still have data in AgentStat table)
