v0.4.0

Online Boutique 0.4.0 is out! 🎉

Highlights

We've gone from 0.3.9 to 0.4.0 since this new version introduces new important features:

• New ways of deploying Online Boutique and its deployment variations — with Kustomize and with Terraform.
• All the apps are now running as unprivileged containers by default when deployed with the default Kubernetes manifests provided (securityContext)
• The cartservice app can now store its data in Google Cloud Spanner (optional and not by default).
• The frontend app can be configured (optional and not by default) to have a shared user-id across sessions, very convenient to share data stored in the shopping cart in a multi-cluster mode when using one shared database model (in-cluster or using an external database like Memorystore or Spanner)
• The cartservice app is now in .NET 7
• The recommendation and emailservice apps are now in Python 3.9
• The adservice app is now packaged in an Eclipse temurin container instead of openjdk
• OpenCensus/Jaeger have been removed from Online Boutique apps in order to anticipate the coming OpenTelemetry implementation, stay tuned!
