We’re excited to announce the latest updates to the Kapstan platform, featuring new additions and enhancements that improve your experience. Here’s a breakdown of what’s new:

Slack notifications​

Slack notifications are now available for every deployment, cron job run, and other key events. We're working on expanding notification coverage to include more events, ensuring that developers receive timely updates about important events.

Exposing service endpoints​

Easily view exposed service endpoints for a particular application directly on the application overview tab, facilitating seamless communication between services.

Programmatic deployments​

We've added support for programmatic application deployments on Kapstan. For seamless integration with your CI/CD pipeline, we've also published a Kaptan GitHub Action available in the GitHub Marketplace. This action allows you to trigger deployments directly from your GitHub workflows. For more information on setting up and using this feature, please refer to our Deployment Settings documentation.

Pre-deploy job​

Often, it's necessary to run a job before starting our services to perform tasks like database migration, running required scripts, or populating secrets. Now, with Kapstan, you can provision such jobs using the Pre-deploy job feature. Simply add a pre-deploy job for an application, and it will execute every time before the main application starts.

We're excited to introduce two of the most requested features on Kapstan: Application Performance Monitoring (APM), and support for NoSQL database.

We're excited to unveil recent enhancements to our platform: support for multiple architecture types and surrounding logs visibility.

Support for AMD64/x86-64​

Applications often require deployment on specific architectures, with arm64 and amd64 being among the most prevalent. Kapstan now facilitates deployment across multiple architecture types, allowing you to select the architecture that best suits your application's needs.

We're thrilled to announce a major addition to the Kapstan platform: support for Google Cloud Platform (GCP)!

Creating a new environment in Kapstan has become even more awesome with environment types. You can now create a new environment from scratch either of the Staging or Production type.

We're excited to announce the latest enhancements and new features rolled out on our platform over the last sprint.
