+title: Release Apache SkyWalking Horizon UI 0.5.0
+date: 2026-05-24
+author: SkyWalking Team
+description: "Release Apache SkyWalking Horizon UI 0.5.0."
+---
+
+SkyWalking Horizon UI 0.5.0 is released. Go to [downloads](/downloads) page to
find release tars.
+
+First Apache-style release cut from this repo: source + binary tarballs,
GPG-signed and SHA-512 checksummed, with a self-contained binary that boots via
`node server.js` and no `pnpm install` step. Binary distribution ships a
regenerated `LICENSE` + `NOTICE` that enumerate every bundled third-party
package — produced by `scripts/collect-dist-licenses.mjs` during packaging and
validated against a deny-list before signing.
+
+##### Profiling
+
+* **pprof (Go) profiling** is fully wired: pick one event per task (CPU / HEAP
/ BLOCK / MUTEX / GOROUTINE / ALLOCS / THREADCREATE), with duration shown for
CPU/BLOCK/MUTEX and a sampling-rate field for BLOCK/MUTEX. Create and analyze
both match OAP's single-event pprof schema.
+* **eBPF profiling** gets a reworked process picker — click a row to expand
its full attributes, selection lives on the checkbox, anchored pop-out — a
refresh button on every task list, Intl-formatted times, and a hover-info frame
on the flame graph. Flame-graph thrash on re-analyze is gone.
+* The shared flame graph fixes "% of root" (it read a never-aggregated count),
highlights the selected frame across all four profilers, and shows a single
hover card (the library's duplicate native tooltip is suppressed).
+* After creating any profiling task (trace / async / eBPF / network / pprof)
the list now polls up to 4× at 10s until the new task shows up, instead of
leaving a stale pre-create list.
+
+##### Network profiling & process topology
+
+* A booster-style honeycomb process topology: pods as hexagons, peers hugging
the boundary, animated protocol-coloured edges (HTTP/TCP/TLS), a node pop-over,
and a wide client | server edge-metric dashboard. Network task creation and the
task-list query now use OAP's schema field names.
+
+##### Platform monitoring (operate)
+
+* Two new read-only operate pages: **Data retention** (TTL — `getRecordsTTL` /
`getMetricsTTL`) and **OAP configuration** (the admin-port config dump, with
OAP-masked secrets). Gated on new `ttl:read` / `config:read` verbs granted to
maintainer and above. Data retention now loads on non-BanyanDB backends too
(the `metadata` TTL field is optional).
+* The operate sidebar now leads with a single **Platform monitoring** group
(cluster status, data retention, OAP configuration) above the per-layer
self-observability dashboards.
+
+##### Dashboards & templates
+
+* **The global time picker now drives dashboards.** Layer dashboards query OAP
at the picker's window and precision (MINUTE / HOUR / DAY) instead of a fixed
last-hour minute window, and line charts label the x-axis with real times per
step (e.g. `MM-DD` for a 30-day view) rather than `-Nm`.
+* **New `table` widget** for label-dimensioned metrics — pod phase per
service, node condition, deployment replicas, etc. — rendered as one column per
label (e.g. `Condition | Node`) instead of a scalar card or a misleading flat
line. The K8S dashboards (and kong / mongodb / elasticsearch) now use it where
upstream booster-ui does; widgets that were charting a single `latest(…)` value
as a line are now cards. The K8S Cluster view is realigned to the upstream
layout (totals cards · resour [...]
+* **Edit locally, publish on your terms.** Saving a dashboard/overview
template now writes the local bundled copy (so the edit renders immediately for
preview) and marks it diverged — nothing reaches OAP until you press **Sync all
to OAP**, which pushes only the templates that differ, behind a confirmation
listing exactly what will be written. A post-save tip spells out that the
change is local-only until published.
+* **Local-vs-remote, made explicit.** When local edits diverge from OAP, a
per-session prompt (by menu name, not file name) asks which to render — **keep
my local edits** (preview) or **use live** (which overwrites the local copy
with the remote version, confirmed). The layer-templates admin page carries the
same Local/Remote display toggle next to Sync all, and a **Diverged only**
filter; each diverged layer shows a yellow warning icon in the sidebar.
+
+##### Traces
+
+* The native trace view auto-selects OAP's trace-query API — `queryTraces`
(whole trace inline, BanyanDB) vs `queryBasicTraces` (segment list + a
per-trace fetch on click, every other backend) — and a banner states which is
in use; in segment-list mode the list reads "Segments" and a click loads the
full trace.
+* Span kind (Entry / Exit / Local) renders as a colored word, not a filled
pill.
+
+##### Auth, RBAC & resilience
+
+* Every OAP call — GraphQL, admin REST, and Zipkin — now carries the
configured basic-auth credentials, so a secured OAP no longer 401s pages.
+* The sidebar is RBAC-gated by read verb, the Roles page shows a per-role
menu-visibility matrix, and the Users page labels per-node "Active (24h)" /
"Last seen" honestly (these are tracked per BFF replica, not cluster-wide).
+* **Routes are verb-gated, not just menus.** A user without the required read
verb is bounced from a restricted page (e.g. a viewer can no longer reach
Cluster Status via the topbar OAP chip or a direct URL); the chip only links
there for `cluster:read`. This sits on top of the existing per-route BFF verb
enforcement.
+* **LDAP** resolves group membership with the service account, not the
logging-in user — directories that hide the group subtree from ordinary users
no longer collapse every login to the fallback role.
+* When OAP is unreachable the menu and admin loaders fall back to bundled
templates, and non-JSON OAP responses surface a clear diagnostic.
+
+##### Smaller touches
+
+* Top-N widgets get hover tooltips for long names and a title-bar pop-out to
the full ranked list; redundant single-service name prefixes are dropped.
+* The admin template-diff modal is a wide side-by-side view with labelled
bundled-vs-OAP columns and an explanation of what the template drives; the
layer-dashboards admin rail gains an in-page search.
+* Per-layer alarm filtering uses the singular `queryAlarms` layer condition.
+* The `general` layer drops `networkProfiling`, which is instance-scoped to
k8s / mesh.
