✨ What's New

  • Maintenance Release

    • Facets IaC upgrades are now decoupled from regular releases, running independently as dedicated Maintenance Releases. These releases will execute automatically during scheduled maintenance window or can be triggered manually if needed.
    • Maintenance Window will now be applicable for all the environments including the ones with pinned IAC version. Maintenance release will run only when there are pending infrastructure updates.

  • Release Change Preview

    • Releases just got more transparent. Review Release Table enables user to preview all infrastructure changes across an environment before release, reducing the risk of unintended updates.
    • This brings visibility and control to your release process, making it easier to manage infrastructure changes effectively.

  • Project Types

    • Projects can now be categorised with Project Types. Now, when creating a project, you can define it as a Project Type, effectively turning it into a reusable template. This feature allows you to create new projects with the same base blueprint, streamlining your workflow and ensuring consistency across all projects.
    • Users will now be able to map each project to a project type. This will allow users to have customised base blueprint based on the project type selected.

🐞 Bug Fixes
