The release notes below contain information about new functionality available in the Boundary v0.8.0 release.
To see a granular record of when each item was merged into the Boundary project, please refer to the [Changelog](https://github.com/hashicorp/boundary/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md).
Lastly, for instructions on how to upgrade an existing Boundary deployment to v0.8.0, please review Boundary’s [general upgrade guide](/boundary/tutorials/oss-configuration/upgrade-version).
**Metrics and Health Endpoint:** Boundary is adding [Prometheus metrics](/boundary/docs/oss/operations/metrics) to monitor the operations of workers and controllers,
as well as a [health endpoint](/boundary/docs/oss/operations/health) for controllers.
**Audit Event Logs:** We are expanding the audit event logs by increasing the captured [audit events](/boundary/docs/configuration/events/overview),
with support for sanitizing sensitive information from audit events. All of the events are now classified and events contain more usable data, with sensitive information redacted by default.
**UI Support for Worker Tags:** Users can now set and edit [worker tag](/boundary/docs/concepts/filtering/worker-tags) filters in the Boundary admin console.
**Performance Improvements:** We have implemented changes to improve performance on larger deployments; such as adding a refresh button in the admin console and desktop client,
and improving response times listing sessions and targets. We plan to continue these efforts as Boundary users grow their deployments!
For more detailed information of all changes since 0.7.0, please refer to the [Changelog](https://github.com/hashicorp/boundary/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md)
