InfraKit – Q3 2024 Release
We’re excited to roll out the newest InfraKit enhancements, crafted specifically to streamline your development process, fortify security, and boost operational efficiency. These updates are designed to help your team deliver higher-quality products, faster.
Here’s how these upgrades can benefit your business:
1. Sonar Metrics: Superior Code Quality for a Stronger Platform
Our enhanced Sonar code analysis automatically checks every piece of code for quality, security, and reliability. This proactive approach catches issues early, reducing bugs and security vulnerabilities. For you, this translates to:
- Fewer disruptions: Early issue detection means smoother operations.
- Cost savings: Higher code quality reduces expensive rework.
- Improved stability: Deliver a more reliable product to your users.
You’ll also receive a summary of these metrics in your Steering Committees, giving you clear insights into your product’s code health and enabling smarter development decisions.
2. Code Spaces: Accelerate Development with Instant Environments
No more wasting time on setting up local development environments. With cloud-based Code Spaces, your developers can start coding instantly with a consistent setup across the board. This results in:
- Faster onboarding: New developers can hit the ground running.
- Increased productivity: More time spent coding, less on setup.
- Cost-effective scaling: No need for expensive hardware, lowering IT costs.
Your team can now focus more on innovation and less on infrastructure, speeding up feature delivery.
3. Structured Logging: Gain Clarity for Faster Problem Solving
We’ve introduced Structured Logging to make it easier to search, filter, and analyze log data. This gives you:
- Quicker issue resolution: Reduce system downtime with faster troubleshooting.
- Deeper insights: Use logs to analyze performance and enhance user experience.
- Better decision-making: Leverage detailed reports to drive data-informed strategies.
Contact your GO Product Manager to explore how this feature can optimize monitoring and reporting for your product.
4. Audit Log group: Enhance Compliance and Security
Meet regulatory requirements effortlessly with our new Audit Log group feature. It securely logs and stores key actions within InfraKit for extended periods, ensuring you’re always audit-ready. This provides:
- Simplified compliance: Easily meet audit standards with comprehensive logging.
- Data protection: Long-term storage of critical logs.
- Lower audit costs: Streamlined audit processes reduce expenses.
These features not only strengthen your platform’s security but also make it easier to maintain compliance without the usual headaches.
Sneak Peek into Q4-2024 InfraKit Features
As we continue to innovate and enhance InfraKit, here’s a glimpse into the exciting features we have planned for our Q4-2024 release:
- E2E Testing with Cypress Integration: Streamline your end-to-end testing processes with built-in Cypress support. This will enable your team to automate complex test scenarios, ensuring your applications are thoroughly tested before they go live.
- Scheduled Shutdown of Test/Acceptance Environment (GO-12): Automate the shutdown of your Test and Acceptance environments with scheduled tasks. This feature will help you manage resources more efficiently, reducing costs by ensuring that environments are only active when needed.
- Anomaly Detection in Structured Logging: Enhance your monitoring capabilities with anomaly detection in structured logs. This feature will automatically detect and alert you to unusual patterns, helping to identify potential issues before they impact your users.
- Authorization Failures: Receive detailed insights into failed authorization attempts, allowing you to quickly identify and address security concerns.
- Authentication Failures: Get real-time alerts and logs for authentication failures, enabling faster response times to potential security threats.
- Auth0 Log Streaming: Integrate Auth0 log data directly into your structured logging, providing a unified view of authentication events and making it easier to monitor and troubleshoot security issues.
- AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF) Integration: While we already support AWS WAF, the upcoming release will include enhancements to make it easier to enable and configure, giving you an extra layer of protection against common web exploits.
Stay tuned for more updates as we prepare to roll out these powerful new features, all designed to give you more control, better security, and enhanced efficiency in managing your SaaS platform with InfraKit.
