Release information

Highlights in 2026.1.0 release

The product images 8.1 of Ping Identity Platform are available

The following new secure images are available for ForgeOps deployment:

  • AM 8.1.0

  • Amster 8.1.0

  • DS 8.1.0

  • IDM 8.1.0

Learn more on how to upgrade your deployed images in upgrading deployed Docker images.

Replaced ingress-nginx with Traefik as the default ingress controller

The default ingress controller has changed to Traefik because Kubernetes has retired the ingress-nginx controller. The ForgeOps documentation has been updated to reflect this change.

Configuration profiles built into their own images

The configuration profiles for AM and IDM have been separated into their own BusyBox images. You no longer need to build the AM and IDM Docker images for configuration changes.

The forgeops config command has a new build subcommand to create custom BusyBox images for AM and IDM configuration profiles. ForgeOps deployment tools use the configuration images when available, and fall back to the built-in configuration in AM and IDM images.

To learn more, run the forgeops config build --help command.

Update ForgeOps deployment environments

The new custom images require changes to your ForgeOps deployment environments. Update your default Kustomize overlay if you’re using the FORGEOPS_DATA functionality. Run the forgeops env --env-name my-env --upgrade command in your environments to update the ForgeOps deployment environments to use the new configuration images. This command also updates the default Kustomize overlay when you run it the first time against any ForgeOps deployment environment.
