Release 9311: Changing PHP’s default serialize_precision

With this release, we’re changing the serialize_precision setting from 17 to the default setting for PHP 8.3 (which hasn’t been released yet) and onwards. The setting was set to 17 when PHP didn’t have an algorithm yet to select a rounding precision on its own. The default used to be 100, so by using 17…

Release 9267: Change the owner of the domain and see the auth code in the Control Panel

With this release, we introduced changing the owner of the domain directly in the Control Panel. This feature is especially for domains that are not linked to any Hypernode but you still want to transfer them to a different owner. Before you could only transfer a domain by transferring a Hypernode with this linked domain,…

Release 9209: New Settings tab and simplified navigation

As our product gets more features and more complicated configuration we decided to simplify the menu and create one source of the settings. In the new setting page, you can change your PHP version, allow billing through CLI to use Brancher Nodes, change your plan through CLI, etc (which was previously in Change plan >…

Release 9171: Improved Brancher list accuracy

With this release, we have improved the hypernode-systemctl brancher –list (or hypernode-brancher –list) command to page through the entire result, instead of showing the first page. For most users this was working properly, but the result basically wasn’t accurate when you’d have more than 50 active Brancher nodes or when listing the terminated Brancher nodes…

Release 9156: Faster hypernode-fpm-status and livefpm on high load

With this release, we have some improvements for hypernode-fpm-status and livefpm! We enhanced the utility’s responsiveness, especially for big Hypernodes with high traffic loads. Improved Performance for Big Hypernodes For hypernode-fpm-status, we use a component called psutil to gather information about the connections and processes. However, the way we used psutil didn’t scale very nicely…

Release 9096: Rollback of 9077

At Hypernode, we’re always looking for ways to optimize the configuration and to improve the customer experience. Last Monday, we announced release 9077, which introduced an optimized nginx configuration for varnish-enabled Magento 2 vhosts. Although we tested this change very thoroughly on several Magento 2 environments, this change did not have the intended effect for…

Release 9077: Optimized Magento 2 + Varnish nginx configuration

With this release, we have changed the vhost scaffolding template for the Magento 2 vhost type when Varnish is enabled for the vhost. Previously, all requests were passed on to varnish, which means that also the static assets and the media files were being passed to varnish. Because the Magento 2 Varnish configuration passes static/media…

Release 8939: OpenSearch 2.x

With this release, we’ve added support for OpenSearch 2.x! It has taken us some time to make this available, because the Debian distribution of OpenSearch 2.x arrived just at the beginning of 2023. Magento has had support for OpenSearch for quite some time, but since version 2.4.6, it added support for OpenSearch 2.x. Using OpenSearch…

Release 8937: Brancher nodes improvements – History overview and permissions

With this release, we’ve made some changes to the NGINX configuration on the Hypernode platform. We’re currently hard at work to create more Hypernode Cluster features.

Release 8881: Brancher nodes in the Control Panel

This week we released the Brancher nodes in the Control Panel. The first release covers the basic functionality of creating and terminating Brancher nodes for owners and admins.

Release 8789: Configuration for GoAccess out of the box

In this release we have added configuration for GoAccess so it can handle Hypernode’s custom access log format out of the box. We’ve had the goaccess binary installed on Hypernode ever since December 2019 but considering Hypernode uses a custom json based log format for NGINX it was difficult to use. On Hypernode there are…

Release 8766: Fixed Blackfire enablement

Not a feature this time, but with this release we have fixed a bug where Blackfire was installed on Hypernodes by default. This bug was in effect for Hypernodes that hadn’t enabled or disabled the blackfire_enabled setting yet. In that case the setting was reported as disabled, but Blackfire was actually still being installed. If…

Release 8762: Hypernode hints

We have made a small change to the message of the day, it will now include some nice hints. The ‘motd’ is the output you see when you log in to a Hypernode using SSH. It contains some useful information about the server and information about how to use the system. In this release we…
