Release Details
Key Features Added
Streaming alert service: Deepfactor introduced a new architectural component, streaming alert service. This service receives telemetry event from instrumented applications and analyses them to raise alerts in near real-time. This will provide almost immediate feedback to developers when an issue occurs in the running application. This service is also horizontally scalable allowing for the portal to auto scale up and down as the number of applications increase or decrease.
Expressive alert rule language: With the introduction of streaming alert service, Deepfactor adopted a more expressive alert rule language that allows for Deepfactor to add complex alert conditions. This allowed for us to combine compiled and interpreted alert policies into one.
New UI/UX: Deepfactor launched the new user experience along with the new branding, providing users with an intuitive self-service UI.
Simpler detection of libc variant: Deepfactor has developed a simple bootstrap mechanism to detect variants.
Key Enhancements
Pod resource limits: All of Deepfactor portal and webhook pods now have default cpu and memory request and limits along with horizontal pod autoscaling configuration. This will allow Deepfactor pods to horizontally scale when users want to concurrently instrument large number of applications.
BlackDuck Integration: In the first phase of the BlackDuck integration, Deepfactor fetched vulnerabilities from Synopsys BlackDuck. Deepfactor now pulls the license information as well from Synopsys BlackDuck.
