❗ IMPORTANT: Backup Architecture Enhancement

Neo4j Helm Charts Backup: Migration to Native Mode

What's Changing

We've upgraded the Neo4j backup functionality from wrapper mode to native mode for improved performance, reliability, and cloud provider integration.

🛠️ Migration Guide

1. Azure Users: Update your credentials secret with service principal information as follows:

# Azure credentials file
AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT=your_account
AZURE_STORAGE_KEY=your_key
AZURE_CLIENT_ID=your_service_principal_id
AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=your_service_principal_secret
AZURE_TENANT_ID=your_tenant_id

2. GCP Users: Consider migrating to workload identity for enhanced security
3. AWS Users: No changes required for existing configurations
4. All Users: Review backup job resource allocations for optimal performance

📚 Documentation Updates

Updated documentation will be available at: Neo4j Kubernetes Operations Manual

🔧 Key Improvements

• Better Performance: Direct integration with Neo4j's native backup operations
• Removed the need for local mount for backups: Backups performed directly to cloud storage
• Enhanced Cloud Authentication: Native Azure service principal support with DefaultAzureCredential
• GCP Workload Identity: Full support for Google Cloud workload identity authentication

v2025.5.0

• Update to Neo4j 2025.05.0 as the new baseline
• See Release notes for details of changes
• Azure blob URL is now configurable
• Fixed issue where the first node would fallback to standalone even when setting minimumClusterSize to 3
• Fixed parsing of multiple endpoints for backup
• Fixed consistency check failing when a database name was not defined
• Fixed boolean to string conversion issue in GO
