The v0.2.0 release of DecisionBox expands the platform's reach with full Azure cloud support, the addition of Snowflake as a data warehouse provider, and a more structured approach to authentication. This release maintains compatibility with existing deployments while providing several new enterprise-ready features.

Snowflake Integration​

Snowflake is now a first-class citizen in the DecisionBox ecosystem. We've added full support for:

  • Username/Password authentication for quick setup.
  • Key Pair (JWT) authentication for secure, production-grade connections.
  • Type Mapping: Robust handling of all major Snowflake data types (NUMBER, VARIANT, DATE, TIMESTAMP, etc.).
  • Efficient Discovery: Uses Snowflake metadata queries to explore schemas without impacting performance.

Azure Cloud Support​

Azure joins GCP and AWS as a supported cloud provider. This includes:

  • Azure AI Foundry: Support for GPT-4o and other models via Azure's enterprise LLM platform.
  • Azure Key Vault: Securely store and manage your credentials using Azure's native secret management service.
  • Terraform Module: A dedicated Terraform module for provisioning AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service) and all related infrastructure.

Improved Authentication Experience​

We've introduced a structured approach to authentication. Warehouse providers now declare their supported auth methods via metadata. This allows the DecisionBox dashboard to:

  • Render provider-specific forms for a better user experience.
  • Validate configuration before it's submitted.
  • Dynamically update the UI based on the selected auth method (e.g., showing fields for Key Pair vs. Password).

Helm Chart Improvements​

  • Azure Workload Identity: Support for Azure Workload Identity webhooks, including new labels for service accounts and pods.
  • Enhanced Configuration: More flexible Helm values for managing cloud-specific integrations.

Seamless Upgrade​

This release contains no breaking changes. Existing v0.1.0 deployments can upgrade to v0.2.0 without any modifications, and you can opt into the new Snowflake and Azure features as needed.
