Configuration diff, rollbacks, and more

We've been working hard over the past two months. Our mission is to provide a world-class day-2 developer experience. We're excited to share the following list of platform improvements that we believe you'll find valuable:

Deployments

CD with Bitbucket pipelines: Similar to GitHub Actions workflows, you can now use the Kapstan deployment pipeline within Bitbucket pipelines for continuous deployment of your services.

Rollback: Accidentally deployed an incorrect configuration version? Or need to debug a tricky bug? You can now roll back to any previous successful deployment with a single click.

Configuration diff: Easily compare configuration changes between deployments. This feature is invaluable for tracking changes and debugging issues that arise after a deployment.

Environment configurations

Shared variables and secrets: Eliminate the need to copy and paste common variables and secrets (e.g., API keys, database passwords) across multiple services. Manage them centrally at the environment level and seamlessly inherit them in your services.

Environment deletion: Once all services within an environment have been deleted, you can now delete the environment itself. Navigate to "Settings -> Danger Zone."

Beta feature

Container Service Cost (GCP Only): Monitor cost trends and efficiency for your services in the "Cost" tab. This feature is currently in beta and available for GCP environments only.

Miscellaneous Improvements

EKS upgrade to 1.30: We have successfully upgraded all customer AWS EKS clusters to version 1.30. New environments will now be provisioned with EKS 1.30.

Secrets migrated to cloud vaults: At Kapstan, we prioritize customer data security. We have migrated all customer environment secrets from our internal vault to customer-managed cloud vaults. This provides increased flexibility and strengthens customer trust in the Kapstan platform.

We value your feedback and encourage you to share your thoughts on these enhancements.
