Another packed update this time, with a lot coming as well 🏄‍♂️
Worker servers
As of now, you may easily create worker servers for your PHP background tasks such as queues. The worker server is quite similar to the plain server, but comes with supervisor installed and you’re able to install "apps" on it.
Apps are just like domains you'd install on a server, but without NGINX configuration, you can easily use SFTP or GIT to clone your applications on these servers and run the workers on the fly.
Site file backups
We're actively working on a fairly big refactor for site file backups, especially the 20-minute limit and error reporting. When the 20-minute limit is reached, it would always dump that same error that the limit has been reached which isn’t really helpful if you want to debug.
That’s why we’re going to be pushing a fair few of updates to the site file backups. Do note; as user, you’ll probably not notice much of this as it's mostly in the backend, but we do appreciate any feedback at this point so we can process that as well along with it, we’re planning on releasing this update this month.
New roadmap
Some of you might already notice, that we've moved to a fresh piece of software for our roadmap, which is open source as well. Visit the roadmap here, and while you're at it, if you have a suggestion don’t hesitate to submit that. Oh, and to make things easy, you can log in with your Ploi account ✅
