We are delighted to announce the general availability of Dedicated Generation 3 - the latest evolution of our Dedicated offering. We rewrote it from scratch with the objective of making the Dedicated experience as incredible as on the Grid, while providing the same strong guarantees regarding uptime, compliance, and SLAs. And, not to humblebrag, but we succeeded!
The developer experience just got so much better with the latest Platform.sh CLI release. Designed and engineered to help developers manage their daily work environments more efficiently, this incredible tool is ready to Go for our entire developer community, becoming language independent with no need to install PHP, and embracing the distribution standards. With the Platform.sh CLI, developers can easily use and manage their projects directly from their terminal.
You asked and we delivered! The days of configuring cron jobs to take backups for each of your environments are over. Soon, for every grid project, you will have your backups automated according to the plan of your choice. Meaning you can focus on deploying today without worrying about whether you can roll back to yesterday - this new feature has you covered. We thought we’d give you the heads up so you can get in there early and choose your desired backups plan.
One of the key attributes of DevOps and SRE engineers is their ability to meticulously observe and monitor all of their applications. A task which can be achieved more efficiently by centralizing all generated logs to a central endpoint. By centralizing logging, engineers can, at any time, have an accurate overview of all events which take place across their applications, from just one place. Storing logs in an external system also allows companies to ensure compliance with many certifications.
To make the developer experience as smooth as possible, we are simplifying the onboarding process. Howso? By making the Platform.sh configuration files optional (zero configuration!). Due to popular demands, we’re also giving you a simple way to control custom DNS entries directly in the YAML configuration files (see below). Previously, if you started from one of our many ready-to-use templates, those YAML files were automatically included.
Today, we are excited to announce that Platform.sh now offers the latest version of MongoDB to our Enterprise and Elite customers. Clients can now enjoy improved visibility via one source of control, the ability to track multiple applications and users, and native, at-rest encryption that meets the latest security compliance standards. There are more details about the benefits of MongoDB below.
As a Platform.sh customer, your protection is paramount and every single one of your projects is secure. For Enterprise and Elite customer projects we go the extra mile and offer a rich selection of enhanced security features, which can be used right now. Let’s dig into each of them.
For years, Chromatic managed virtual servers on behalf of our clients. As tools like Platform.sh matured, our team realized we were spending much of our clients’ budgets on simply maintaining those servers—instead of making their sites better (which is kind of our reason for existing).
At Platform.sh, we are committed to making your development and deployment experience as smooth and seamless as possible. As part of this effort, we regularly listen to your feedback to see how we can improve things. One of those things: is how complex it can be to configure environment or project settings from the Console. That is why we decided to regroup all settings pages together so that they’re easily accessible from a single location.
