All notable changes to CipherStash Proxy will be documented in this file.
The format is based on Keep a Changelog.
2.2.0-alpha.1 - 2026-03-25
- Log target renamed:
KEYSETlog target renamed toZEROKMS. The environment variableCS_LOG__KEYSET_LEVELis nowCS_LOG__ZEROKMS_LEVEL.
- Log target removed:
PROXYlog target andCS_LOG__PROXY_LEVELenvironment variable have been removed.
- Cipher cache miss metric: New Prometheus counter
cipherstash_proxy_keyset_cipher_cache_miss_totaltracks cache misses requiring cipher initialization. This complements thecipherstash_proxy_keyset_cipher_cache_hit_totalmetric, and can be used to calculate cache hit/miss ratio. - Cipher init duration metric: New Prometheus histogram
cipherstash_proxy_keyset_cipher_init_duration_secondstracks cipher initialization time including ZeroKMS network calls. - Encrypt/decrypt timing: Debug logs for
encrypt_eqlanddecrypt_eqlnow includeduration_ms. - Cache eviction logging: ScopedCipher cache eviction events are now logged under the
ZEROKMStarget. - Slow cipher init warning: Cipher initialization taking longer than 1 second triggers a warning log.
2.1.22 - 2026-02-05
- Configurable slow database response threshold: The "Slow database response" log threshold is now configurable via
CS_LOG__SLOW_DB_RESPONSE_MIN_DURATION_MS(default: 100ms). This controls per-message logging for individual slow reads from the PostgreSQL server.
2.1.21 - 2026-02-04
- Updated
cipherstash-clientto v0.33.0. Addsarray_index_modeconfiguration for STE-VEC indexes, which controls how arrays are indexed in JSONB data. Defaults toall(generating item, wildcard, and positional selectors), preserving backwards compatibility with existing configurations.
2.1.20 - 2026-01-29
- Slow statement logging: Enable with
CS_LOG__SLOW_STATEMENTS=trueto log detailed timing breakdowns when queries exceed a configurable threshold (default 2 seconds). Includes breakdown of parse, encrypt, server wait, and decrypt phases. - Prometheus slow statement counter: New
cipherstash_proxy_slow_statements_totalmetric increments when slow statements are detected. - Prometheus histogram labels: Duration histograms now include
statement_type,protocol,mapped, andmulti_statementlabels for granular performance analysis. - Term filters for STE-VEC indexes: Support for
term_filtersconfiguration ineql_v2.add_search_config(), enabling case-insensitive JSONB queries with thedowncasefilter.
