We are excited to introduce Atmosphere v7.0.0 (OpenStack 2025.2 Flamingo version), a major release packed with new operating system support, feature enhancements across the stack, stability improvements, and critical fixes that elevate the overall reliability and performance of Atmosphere-powered clouds. This release marks a significant step forward in making large-scale Kubernetes and OpenStack deployments even more resilient, maintainable, and future-proof.
With this release, operators gain improved observability, streamlined backup workflows, expanded platform compatibility, and multiple networking and storage enhancements—all designed to strengthen cloud operations while reducing administrative overhead.
This release introduces support for Rocky Linux 9 and AlmaLinux 9 across both Ceph and Kubernetes collections. This provides operators with broader deployment flexibility on modern, secure enterprise Linux distributions.
Percona backup jobs now automatically use a default backup image, eliminating the need to specify an image for each job.
This improvement:
The release incorporates numerous enhancements from earlier v7.0.0 beta versions, including:
These additions collectively improve functionality across networking, storage, identity, security, and observability domains.
Atmosphere v7.0.0 includes extensive upgrades to ensure improved performance and long-term maintainability:
These upgrades ensure compatibility with modern Kubernetes versions, improve cluster lifecycle operations, and provide a more consistent deployment experience.
This release incorporates a wide range of bug fixes to ensure smooth operations across all layers of the cloud stack, including:
image_manifest Operators upgrading to the Flamingo version will find improved reliability and far fewer operational edge-case failures.
Atmosphere v7.0.0 (OpenStack 2025.2 Flamingo) brings significant ecosystem-level improvements:
These changes enhance developer workflows, improve build consistency, reduce operational toil, and expand networking observability capabilities.
A fix has been implemented for MTU mismatches on OVN metadata interfaces, ensuring MTU values stay consistent with underlying networks during deployment.
This release strengthens cloud security posture through:
These updates reduce attack surface and align Atmosphere with modern security best practices.
Atmosphere v7.0.0 (OpenStack 2025.2 Flamingo) release reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering a resilient, secure, and high-performance cloud platform. With expanded OS support, upgraded operators and Helm charts, significant bug fixes, and improved monitoring and observability, this release empowers operators to maintain efficient, stable, and future-ready infrastructure.
