The current recommended release, and what a default install gets. Use this
unless you have a reason not to.
beta
Early access to new capabilities. Not covered by production support.
Published as prerelease versions such as
0.5.0-beta.1, so a default
install never picks one up.lts
Long-term support. Receives fixes for an extended window and is the target
for conservative upgrade policies.

--channel beta, or name the exact version:
Platform components
KubeBlocks CRDs is pinned separately from the KubeBlocks chart. The installer
applies CRDs from that reference because later KubeBlocks branches drop fields the
FalkorDB addon depends on. Override it with
KUBEBLOCKS_CRD_REF only when advised.Storage drivers
These subcharts are optional and disabled by default. They are pinned per release so an enabled driver stays reproducible.Tested upgrade paths
Moving a deployment to a newer FalkorDB addon release replaces its definition in one step: nothing an addon release in between would have done runs. So CI upgrades to each release from the newest release of every addon version a supported release shipped, with databases running. The chart upgrade must leave them untouched; each database is then moved to the new addon release and upgraded to the newest FalkorDB version, and must keep its data and topology. Upgrades to1.0.0-beta.4 are tested from:
A release not listed that ships the same addon as a listed one makes the same addon
jump. Upgrade a release older than
1.0.0-beta.1 to 1.0.0-beta.1 first, following
the migration guide.
Admin components
The Admin Server, Admin UI, and Admin CLI images are tagged with the Enterprise chart version. Chart0.4.1 runs Admin Server 0.4.1, and so on.
