Aura operations changelog

Changelog of Aura operations for Radiohead Aura Platform release

Added

2025-07-04 - DAPR integration

  • The DAPR (Distributed Application Runtime) framework has been enabled in Aura to manage its microservices-based applications. DAPR provides a standardized way to handle common microservices challenges, such as service discovery, state management, and event-driven communication. The adoption of DAPR will significantly reduce the complexity of building and maintaining Aura microservices architecture and will clearly enhance development processes and operational efficiency.
  • Specifically for event publishing/subscription, Aura now supports two event managers: the already existing Redis Pub/Sub and DAPR.
  • By default, DAPR is disabled in Aura.
