Just released! Spinning up cloud resources dynamically?

This release is BIG if you are spinning up cloud resources dynamically from your application. Read on!

App environments run in a cloud account (say AWS) that belongs to you or your customer. For each app environment you spin up using LocalOps, a dedicated network is provisioned in a specific region within the connected cloud account. And safe/useful defaults are set during the process.

This information about the dedicated network, the cloud region, the defaults and everything else is useful for the application in many scenarios. For example, to dynamically provision cloud resources such as EBS volumes, EC2 instances at run time from your application.

So we have begun to pass this surrounding context / network / cloud information to your application as additional Helm values. These can be further consumed by your application as Environment variables as appropriate.

We also send other information to your application such as App version. So that you can do update checks, license checks etc., as needed.

Checkout our Developer documentation to learn more.

Other update:

  • We moved to Cloudflare Turnstile to get users signed up and logged in pretty fast. H-Captcha was relatively more stringent and introduced more friction.

🚀 Get Started with LocalOps now, to automate cloud deployments, especially if you deploy applications on end customers cloud / Private SaaS deployments.

Take a 30-min demo, if you have specific questions 😄

Cheers.
