🐛 Fixes

Header propagation rules passthrough (PR #​6690)

Header propagation contains logic to prevent headers from being propagated more than once. This was broken
in https://github.com/apollographql/router/pull/6281 which always considered a header propagated regardless if a rule
actually matched.

This PR alters the logic so that only when a header is populated then the header is marked as fixed.

The following will now work again:

headers:
  all:
    request:
      - propagate:
          named: a
          rename: b
      - propagate:
          named: b

Note that defaulting a head WILL populate a header, so make sure to include your defaults last in your propagation
rules.

headers:
  all:
    request:
      - propagate:
          named: a
          rename: b
          default: defaulted # This will prevent any further rule evaluation for header `b`
      - propagate:
          named: b

Instead, make sure that your headers are defaulted last:

headers:
  all:
    request:
      - propagate:
          named: a
          rename: b
      - propagate:
          named: b
          default: defaulted # OK

Entity cache: fix directive conflicts in cache-control header (Issue #​6441)

Unnecessary cache-control directives are created in cache-control header. The router will now filter out unnecessary values from the cache-control header when the request resolves. So if there's max-age=10, no-cache, must-revalidate, no-store, the expected value for the cache-control header would simply be no-store. Please see the MDN docs for justification of this reasoning: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cache-Control#preventing_storing

Resolve regressions in fragment compression for certain operations (PR #​6651)

In v1.58.0 we introduced a new compression strategy for subgraph GraphQL operations to replace an older, more complicated algorithm.

While we were able to validate improvements for a majority of cases, some regressions still surfaced. To address this, we are extending it to compress more operations with the following outcomes:

• The P99 overhead of running the new compression algorithm on the largest operations in our corpus is now just 10ms
• In case of better compression, at P99 it shrinks the operations by 50Kb when compared to the old algorithm
• In case of worse compression, at P99 it only adds an additional 108 bytes compared to the old algorithm, which was an acceptable trade-off versus added complexity

🚀 Features

Improve BatchProcessor observability (Issue #​6558)

A new metric has been introduced to allow observation of how many spans are being dropped by an telemetry batch processor.

• apollo.router.telemetry.batch_processor.errors - The number of errors encountered by exporter batch processors.
  • name: One of apollo-tracing, datadog-tracing, jaeger-collector, otlp-tracing, zipkin-tracing.
  • error = One of channel closed, channel full.

By observing the number of spans dropped it is possible to estimate what batch processor settings will work for you.

In addition, the log message for dropped spans will now indicate which batch processor is affected.

🐛 Fixes

Improve performance of query hashing by using a precomputed schema hash (PR #​6622)

The router now uses a simpler and faster query hashing algorithm with more predictable CPU and memory usage. This improvement is enabled by using a precomputed hash of the entire schema, rather than computing and hashing the subset of types and fields used by each query.

For more details on why these design decisions were made, please see the PR description

Truncate invalid error paths (PR #​6359)

This fix addresses an issue where the router was silently dropping subgraph errors that included invalid paths.

According to the GraphQL Specification an error path must point to a response field:

If an error can be associated to a particular field in the GraphQL result, it must contain an entry with the key path that details the path of the response field which experienced the error.

The router now truncates the path to the nearest valid field path if a subgraph error includes a path that can't be matched to a response field,

Eagerly init subgraph operation for subscription primary nodes (PR #​6509)

When subgraph operations are deserialized, typically from a query plan cache, they are not automatically parsed into a full document. Instead, each node needs to initialize its operation(s) prior to execution. With this change, the primary node inside SubscriptionNode is initialized in the same way as other nodes in the plan.

Fix increased memory usage in sysinfo since Router 1.59.0 (PR #​6634)

In version 1.59.0, Apollo Router started using the sysinfo crate to gather metrics about available CPUs and RAM. By default, that crate uses rayon internally to parallelize its handling of system processes. In turn, rayon creates a pool of long-lived threads.

In a particular benchmark on a 32-core Linux server, this caused resident memory use to increase by about 150 MB. This is likely a combination of stack space (which only gets freed when the thread terminates) and per-thread space reserved by the heap allocator to reduce cross-thread synchronization cost.

This regression is now fixed by:

• Disabling sysinfo’s use of rayon, so the thread pool is not created and system processes information is gathered in a sequential loop.
• Making sysinfo not gather that information in the first place since Router does not use it.

Optimize demand control lookup (PR #​6450)

The performance of demand control in the router has been optimized.

Previously, demand control could reduce router throughput due to its extra processing required for scoring.

This fix improves performance by shifting more data to be computed at plugin initialization and consolidating lookup queries:

• Cost directives for arguments are now stored in a map alongside those for field definitions
• All precomputed directives are bundled into a struct for each field, along with that field's extended schema type. This reduces 5 individual lookups to a single lookup.
• Response scoring was looking up each field's definition twice. This is now reduced to a single lookup.

Fix missing Content-Length header in subgraph requests (Issue #​6503)

A change in 1.59.0 caused the Router to send requests to subgraphs without a Content-Length header, which would cause issues with some GraphQL servers that depend on that header.

This solves the underlying bug and reintroduces the Content-Length header.

🛠 Maintenance

Remove the legacy query planner (PR #​6418)

The legacy query planner has been removed in this release. In the previous release, router v1.58, it was no longer used by default but was still available through the experimental_query_planner_mode configuration key. That key is now removed.

Also removed are configuration keys which were only relevant to the legacy planner:

• supergraph.query_planning.experimental_parallelism: the new planner can always use available parallelism.
• supergraph.experimental_reuse_query_fragments: this experimental algorithm that attempted to
  reuse fragments from the original operation while forming subgraph requests is no longer present. Instead, by default new fragment definitions are generated based on the shape of the subgraph operation.

Migrate various metrics to OTel instruments (PR #​6476, PR #​6356, PR #​6539)

Various metrics using our legacy mechanism based on the tracing crate are migrated to OTel instruments.

📚 Documentation

Add instrumentation configuration examples (PR #​6487)

The docs for router telemetry have new example configurations for common use cases for selectors and condition.

Remove experimental_retry option (PR #​6338)

The experimental_retry option has been removed due to its limited use and functionality during its experimental phase.
