What is TypeDB?

TypeDB 3.14.2 fixes a delete-after-commit crash and opens HTTPS to Studio users.

TypeDB's 3.14 line is a run of reliability releases. 3.14.2 fixes a server crash when a database is deleted right after a transaction on it closes, and makes the HTTP endpoint accept clients without a client certificate when a CA is configured, matching gRPC. Before the fix, Studio, the HTTP drivers and curl could not connect to such servers at all. It follows 3.14.1's import-safety and query-plan cache fixes.

What is Z-Wave JS UI?

Z-Wave JS UI 11.26 picks up zwave-js 15.32 and finishes the move to Node 24.

Z-Wave JS UI mostly tracks the zwave-js driver. 11.26.0 bumps zwave-js to 15.32.1 and moves the TypeScript base config to Node 24, completing the move that started with the Node 24 Docker image in 11.25.0. 11.25.2 had fixed self-signed certificates Node 24 rejected.

T

DEVOPS
5.0

TypeDB 3.14.2 fixes a delete-after-commit crash and opens HTTPS to Studio users.

◆ Current state

TypeDB's 3.14 line is a run of reliability releases. 3.14.2 fixes a server crash when a database is deleted right after a transaction on it closes, and makes the HTTP endpoint accept clients without a client certificate when a CA is configured, matching gRPC. Before the fix, Studio, the HTTP drivers and curl could not connect to such servers at all. It follows 3.14.1's import-safety and query-plan cache fixes.

◆ Where it's heading

Each 3.14 patch closes failure modes found in real deployments: data loss on import, memory growth, a server panic, and now a TLS mismatch between protocols. The direction is operational hardening of 3.x rather than new query features.

◆ Prediction

Expect further 3.14.x patches aimed at server stability and protocol parity; the entries don't show what the next feature release will add.

Z5.0

Z-Wave JS UI 11.26 picks up zwave-js 15.32 and finishes the move to Node 24.

◆ Current state

Z-Wave JS UI mostly tracks the zwave-js driver. 11.26.0 bumps zwave-js to 15.32.1 and moves the TypeScript base config to Node 24, completing the move that started with the Node 24 Docker image in 11.25.0. 11.25.2 had fixed self-signed certificates Node 24 rejected.

◆ Where it's heading

Releases follow upstream zwave-js versions, with occasional UI feature releases like 11.25.0 in between. Device support changes arrive through the driver rather than the UI.

◆ Prediction

Expect further zwave-js patch bumps; a UI-level feature release is less predictable from this feed.
