Split.io vs Wazuh
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Split.io and Wazuh — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Split.io vs Wazuh: at a glance
What is Split.io?
Split FME's March releases pull feature flags fully into the Harness DevOps platform.
Split.io now ships under the Harness Feature Management & Experimentation (FME) brand, and the substantive activity is captured in the rolled-up release-notes page rather than per-release entries. The March 2026 wave landed three real ships: Policy As Code (OPA) for FME Feature Flags, Feature Flag Archiving with RBAC and pre-archive checks, and the GA of FME steps in Harness pipelines covering full flag lifecycle management. The rest of the recent feed is scraper artifacts — page chrome captured as titles.
What is Wazuh?
Wazuh hardens its 4.14 line while 5.0 rebuilds how agents talk to the manager.
Wazuh ships 4.14 patch releases roughly every two to three weeks, and almost all of the content is security hardening: path traversal and command injection fixes, input validation in the cluster code, connection deadlines and memory leak fixes. 4.14.10 also added memory limits for oversized rulesets and queue warnings for the vulnerability scanner. In parallel, 5.0.0 reached its second release candidate on October 30.

Split FME's March releases pull feature flags fully into the Harness DevOps platform.
◆ Current state
Split.io now ships under the Harness Feature Management & Experimentation (FME) brand, and the substantive activity is captured in the rolled-up release-notes page rather than per-release entries. The March 2026 wave landed three real ships: Policy As Code (OPA) for FME Feature Flags, Feature Flag Archiving with RBAC and pre-archive checks, and the GA of FME steps in Harness pipelines covering full flag lifecycle management. The rest of the recent feed is scraper artifacts — page chrome captured as titles.
◆ Where it's heading
FME is becoming a first-class part of the Harness DevOps surface rather than a standalone feature-flag tool. Pipeline-native flag operations, policy-as-code governance, and archiving as a managed lifecycle state all reflect a single direction: feature flags as a governed, audited, and pipeline-integrated component of the deployment system. The standalone Split UX is fading into Harness conventions.
◆ Prediction
Expect more Harness-platform conventions to land on FME — RBAC unification, environments and pipelines parity, OPA policy templates shipped out of the box, and observability tying flag changes back into deploy-failure/MTTR dashboards. Standalone-Split UX surfaces will likely be retired further.
Wazuh
5.0INFRA · APIS
Wazuh hardens its 4.14 line while 5.0 rebuilds how agents talk to the manager.
◆ Current state
Wazuh ships 4.14 patch releases roughly every two to three weeks, and almost all of the content is security hardening: path traversal and command injection fixes, input validation in the cluster code, connection deadlines and memory leak fixes. 4.14.10 also added memory limits for oversized rulesets and queue warnings for the vulnerability scanner. In parallel, 5.0.0 reached its second release candidate on October 30.
◆ Where it's heading
5.0 is the real change: agents move to HTTPS for talking to the manager, a new detection engine replaces the 4.x analysis daemon, and every server install becomes a cluster node. The 4.14 branch, meanwhile, reads like a security audit being worked through release by release, which keeps current installs safe while 5.0 settles.
◆ Prediction
More 5.0 release candidates are likely before a final release, and 4.14 patch releases with security fixes should keep coming every few weeks; a 5.0 GA date is not stated in these entries.
