Eclipse Che 7.37.0

Major Enhancements

PostgreSQL version 13 is deployed on fresh installations

Starting from this release, deployment will include PosgreSQL 13. Previous deployments used PosgreSQL 9.6, which is EOL in November 2021.

Automatically perform a backup of Che server side components before attempting an upgrade

Server component backup of the Che server has been introduced a few releases ago. Now it’s performed automatically before every Che upgrade.

Drop single user support on Che Server

The single user (unsecured) configuration of Che is not supported anymore. Che is a multi-tenant development workspace manager and there was no value to support a single user configuration. From now on, for single user scenarios users should consider deploying the DevWorkspace Operator without Che.

Plugins updates

• Added VS Code extension Stylelint v0.86.0

Eclipse Che 7.36.0

Major Enhancements

Update the documentation section for the IntelliJ-based IDEs

Updated documentation to use JetBrains IDEs as Che editors

Better presentation of Che operator in OperatorHub UI

We improved the presentation of the Kubernetes Custom Resources Definition deployed with the Che Operator adding the description and changing their labels and order.
