Current Release#

26.10.1#

Release Date: November 2026

Omniverse Streaming on NVCF 26.10.1 is a patch release that updates the platform to NVIDIA Cloud Functions (NVCF) 1.0.4 and includes security and bug fixes.

Changed#

  • NVCF platform 1.0.4: (Omniverse Streaming on NVCF 26.10.1 uses NVCF 1.0.4) For the platform changes, see the NVCF 1.0.4 release notes.

    • Self-Hosted stack 1.0.10

    • Compute Plane stack 1.0.5

    • Observability stack 1.0.0

    • Container Cache images nvcf-container-cache v1.1.43 and nvcf-proxy-tls-certs v1.2.16

  • Upstream dependency images: Some NVCF Self-Hosted stack dependency images are now pulled from their upstream registries rather than from NGC. The NVCF Artifact Manifest lists the image sources.

  • Storage Service 1.2.3: The Storage Service container and Helm chart are updated to 1.2.3. See the Artifact Manifest.

  • OVDC sizing guidance: Added guidance on sizing the Omniverse Derived Cache (OVDC). See NVCF and Omniverse Caches and the OVDC documentation.

  • Agentic AI Skills: The skills and their component manifest are updated to deploy this release. They now deploy the NVCF function autoscaler with the self-hosted stack (see Known Issues for the observability setting it requires), include the observability stack when mirroring artifacts for an in-place upgrade, and require Helm 3 and Helmfile 1.1.x. See Agentic AI Skills and the NVIDIA-Omniverse/streaming-self-hosted repository.

Fixed#

  • NATS authentication reconnect: The NATS authentication callout service could stop reconnecting after a NATS outage, which left NVCF API calls failing until it was restarted. Self-Hosted stack 1.0.10 carries the fix.

  • Containers running as root: Some NVCF containers that ran as root by default now run as non-root users.

Known Issues#

  • Function autoscaler: The Agentic AI Skills now deploy the NVCF function autoscaler with the self-hosted stack. With the default control observability profile, the autoscaler does not scale a streaming function beyond its minimum instance count: it needs Compute Plane worker metrics, which that profile does not collect. When the Control Plane and Compute Plane run in the same cluster, set defaultMonitors.computePlane.enabled: true in the Self-Hosted stack environment file and apply the stack again to enable scale-out. For other configurations, see the NVCF observability documentation and Function Autoscaling.

  • Chart image defaults: Some Helm charts in this release have image defaults that differ from the versions listed on the Artifact Manifest. Deployments made with the Agentic AI Skills use the manifest versions. When installing the self-hosted stack or individual charts directly, apply the image overrides documented in the Artifact Manifest, then verify the running images against the manifest.

Security#

Component updates in this release remediate known security vulnerabilities. Upgrade to this release to receive the fixes.

Upgrading#

To upgrade an existing deployment, use the in-place upgrade skills in the NVIDIA-Omniverse/streaming-self-hosted repository and follow the NVCF 1.0.4 upgrade guide, which covers the platform prerequisites, the upgrade order, and the rollback boundary. The Artifact Manifest lists the component versions for this release.

Component Versions#

The NVCF Compatibility Matrix lists the stack versions qualified to run together. For the Reference Architecture components, see the Artifact Manifest. For the NVCF platform artifacts, see the NVCF Artifact Manifest.
