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.
