A Whirlwind of Shipping

v2025.04.01

Our changelog has been silent for little over a month, but we have been working continuously behind the scenes to bring you the best experience possible.

Since our last update, we have made significant improvements to the platform.

We have:

  • Introduced project tiers
    • Free – Designed for development and testing, these projects provide a gateway with no performance guarantees and are subject to deletion.
    • Basic – Ideal for low-traffic applications, featuring a mix of dedicated and burstable compute resources.
    • Premium – Built for sustained high traffic with dedicated gateway compute to ensure consistent performance.
    • Premium HA – Our most resilient tier, offering dedicated gateway instances distributed across three Availability Zones.
  • Automated underlying K8s cluster scaling – The infrastructure now scales dynamically to meet any level of demand without manual intervention.
  • Implemented Prometheus-based metrics collection – We have transitioned from basic CPU and memory tracking to detailed metrics, including RPS, disk I/O, bandwidth, and transactions per second.
  • Switched to Loki-based log collection – We have replaced ephemeral instance logs with a centralized system that retains all logs for at least 30 days.
  • Increased system test coverage – This allows us to ship updates faster while having already identified and patched several subtle performance bugs.
  • Overhauled build system – We have significantly improved our build success rates to ensure faster and more reliable deployments.
  • Improved the UX of the Web console
    • Added context menus to resources directly on the canvas for quicker navigation.
    • Integrated context menus for organizations, teams, and projects throughout the entire console.
    • Used lazy loading to improve page load times – By loading components only when needed, we’ve significantly reduced initial wait times across the dashboard.
  • Bug fixes and stability improvements
    • Resolved "jank" and layout shifts on the home, sign-in, and sign-up pages.
    • Fixed a bug where the "apply changes" toast notification failed to appear on the configuration page.
    • Patched an issue that prevented new accounts from successfully deploying free-tier Ignite apps.
    • Resolved underlying issues with the email verification workflow.

Note: While the backend infrastructure is live, the new metrics and logging updates are currently being integrated and will be reflected in the web console shortly.
