+## 2.0.0 / 2017-11-08
+
+This release includes a completely rewritten storage, huge performance
+improvements, but also many backwards incompatible changes. For more
+information, read the announcement blog post and migration guide.

+https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/2.0/migration/
+
+* [CHANGE] Completely rewritten storage layer, with WAL. This is not backwards compatible with 1.x storage, and many flags have changed/disappeared.
+* [CHANGE] New staleness behavior. Series now marked stale after target scrapes no longer return them, and soon after targets disappear from service discovery.
+* [CHANGE] Rules files use YAML syntax now. Conversion tool added to promtool.
+* [CHANGE] Removed `count_scalar`, `drop_common_labels` functions and `keep_common` modifier from PromQL.
+* [CHANGE] Rewritten exposition format parser with much higher performance. The Protobuf exposition format is no longer supported.
+* [CHANGE] Example console templates updated for new storage and metrics names. Examples other than node exporter and Prometheus removed.
+* [CHANGE] Admin and lifecycle APIs now disabled by default, can be reenabled via flags
+* [CHANGE] Flags switched to using Kingpin, all flags are now --flagname rather than -flagname.
+* [FEATURE/CHANGE] Remote read can be configured to not read data which is available locally. This is enabled by default.
+* [FEATURE] Rules can be grouped now. Rules within a rule group are executed sequentially.
+* [FEATURE] Added experimental GRPC apis
+* [FEATURE] Add timestamp() function to PromQL.
+* [ENHANCEMENT] Remove remote read from the query path if no remote storage is configured.
+* [ENHANCEMENT] Bump Consul HTTP client timeout to not match the Consul SD watch timeout.
