We are excited to announce the new Streamvisor 4.1 release!
This release focuses on helping teams understand complex Pulsar environments more easily, especially when working with evolving schemas and large partitioned topics. Let’s take a look at what is new!
In real-world streaming systems, schemas evolve constantly. Different services publish at different times, payload structures change and compatibility issues can surface without warning. Identifying when and how a schema changed can become tricky.
The schema view now includes a JSON diff viewer that lets you compare any two schema versions side by side. You can quickly see what changed, highlight breaking fields or confirm that an update is safe. No external tools or manual comparisons required. Everything is visible directly in the UI.
Partitioned topics are everywhere in high throughput workloads, but understanding the behavior of individual partitions often requires digging into each one manually. This makes it harder to troubleshoot skewed traffic, stuck consumers or subscription imbalances.
Streamvisor 4.1.0 expands topic subscriptions for partitioned topics into partition level rows inside a single view. You see metrics and available actions for every partition at once without jumping between separate topic detail pages. This makes operational work much faster and gives you a clearer picture of what is really happening in your system.
Just like subscriptions, producers on partitioned topics often behave differently depending on routing, load patterns or client libraries. If one producer is backing up a single partition, you want to spot it quickly.
The producers view now expands in the same way as subscriptions. You see all producer activity at the partition level in one place. This helps you diagnose hotspots and producer side issues far more efficiently.
We offer a free, fully-featured 30-day trial of Streamvisor for you to try right now. Head over here and give it a try!
