One Cloud 66, One Product

 

Improvement

  

Today we are making it easier to do that: we are consolidating all our products into one: Cloud 66!

The groundwork for this has been in progress for more than a year, firstly by adding a pre-analysis phase to determine the right solution for your application. Consolidation of our pricing variations across different products, and now finally, we're rolling out the final changes to focus on your code and frameworks both in the product and on our documentation site.

While this is a huge improvement in onboarding and usability of our products and documentation, all of the great features powering our product have stayed the same.

Check out our new documentation site to see the documentation, with a focus on frameworks, improved style and fully revised content.

PostgreSQL v15 Now Supported

 

Improvement

  

We now support PostgreSQL v15! New PostgreSQL installations will install v15 by default. You can of course still specify to install an older version via your manifest.

The PostgreSQL v15 update brings various improvements over PostgreSQL v14, if you are looking for more detail, head over to read the official release notes.

New Ruby versions released

 

Improvement

Updates to Add-Ins

Improvements to global navigation and information architecture.

All application Add-Ins’s have now been fully integrated into the main application ‘Overview’ pages and network settings menu.

You’ll find the SSL Certificate and Load Balancer pages are now located under the Network sidebar navigation.

All of your jobs are now managed via the dedicated jobs tab.

New servers can be created from the ‘Add Server’ menu available from your Servers tab.

Improvement

  

I'm pleased to announce that we now support the following on Hetzner Cloud:

  1. Native load balancers: you can now use native LB11, LB21 and LB31 load balancers, just fire up a new load balancer to see the options
  2. VPC configuration: you can use your manifest to configure your applications to share private networks (the default of one private network per application has not changed)
  3. Deployment snapshots: for those speedy server scale-ups!

If you've been waiting for this one, go forth and Hetzner!

Redis 7.0 Now Supported

 

Improvement

  

We now support Redis v7.0 by default for new Redis installations! You can still specify an older version if you wish via your manifest. This Redis update brings yet more performance, stability and security enhancements.

Introducing Account Protection Level

 

New

  

No one likes passwords, but what about two factor authentication? If you're like me, you don't like taking your phone out every time you want to login to your Cloud 66 account. That's why we added WebAuthn support for fingerprints and FaceID three months ago.

Today, we're rolling out another security feature for your Cloud 66 accounts: Account Protection Level or APL for short. APL skips TFA security if it thinks your access is secure and there is no need to use TFA to verify it further. Of course, you can change this behavior on your Account page to a more relaxed to strict policy.

Also, invited users to your team will have to have the same or a more strict APL setting.

Streamlined Team Management Navigation

 

Improvement

  

We’ve improved the UI for team management. You can now find all the team-related features in Account Settings > Collaboration. This includes new pages for managing team membership and assigning roles and access permissions for applications and account wide features. Learn more about the features.
