VMware Event Broker Appliance (VEBA) v0.6.1

by // Leave a Comment

It has only been about two months since our jammed packed v0.6 release of the VMware Event Broker Appliance (VEBA) solution but the adoption and feedback has been extremely well received by our community. Within the first week or so, we already had a number of folks who had successfully deployed the new version and we started to see new feature enhancements as well as a couple of defects which were quickly resolved. In addition to working through the Github Issues, the team also spent quite a bit of time on creating  more example functions demonstrating how easy it is to author new Knative functions for VEBA across a number of different scripting and programming languages.

Today, we are excited to share a quick update with the release of VEBA v0.6.1 which is a dot release, but it certainly contains several new features that we believe the community can benefit from. For full change log, please refer to v0.6.1 release notes

Here are a few of the new highlighted features:

VMware Event Broker Appliance (VEBA) v0.6 is now available!

by // Leave a Comment

I am super excited today to announce the release of version v0.6 of the VMware Event Broker Appliance (VEBA)! The team and I have been heads down for the past several months working on a number of exciting and brand new capabilities that I think both, existing and new customers, will really enjoy.

In addition to the core team and community contributions, I would also like to welcome and thank two of our newest contributors to the VEBA project, both making significant contributions to our v0.6 release:

Release v0.6 is an important milestone for the team and for the VEBA project. VEBA now leverages an end-to-end VMware OSS stack by default, which also provides a strong architectural foundation for future product updates and innovations. We could not be more excited to share this release with our community 🥳 and below are just some of the key feature highlights.

Embedded Knative


Knative is a Kubernetes-based platform to deploy and manage modern serverless workloads. Support for Knative in VEBA was first introduced in our v0.5 release last December and only supported an external Knative deployment. With this latest release, VEBA now supports an embedded Knative deployment which includes the full Knative Serving and Eventing components which is automatically configured within VEBA.

Just in time for the holidays, the VMware Event Broker Appliance (VEBA) team is excited to announce our latest v0.5.0 release, which is also our last planned release of the year. 2020 has been a very difficult year for everyone, but looking at the positives, we could not have been happier with the engagement and community contributions that we have received from our user base. I just want to say, THANK YOU to everyone who has used and have shared their feedback on VEBA. We have so much more planned for 2021, cannot wait to share with the community! 

While reviewing some of the GitHub commits (changes) for the v0.5.0 release, I had noticed the number of commits in this release has even surpassed our very first v0.1.0 release back in November of last year.  

Here is a quick recap of all 6 VEBA releases: 

  • v0.1.0 (11/25/19) - 351 commits
