| | AppScale Weekly Newsletter |
| | Hi all! This is our tenth issue of "This Week in AppScale", our weekly newsletter that keeps you up-to-date on what's going on in the world of AppScale. |
| | | AppScale 1.7.0 |
| We're nearing to a close on the development phase of the AppScale 1.7.0 release. This Trello board details the features we're slated to release, and which features have made it into our testing branch. In particular, we're adding a Logs Viewer to our new Dashboard so that you can see application-level logs for your Python, Java, and Go App Engine apps, as well as system-level logs that our AppController service emits. We've got a pull request here that details how that is coming along, along with fixes to our UI in the Dashboard that use JustGage to display CPU, memory, and disk information.

As usual, we had a great turnout at our IRC Office Hours. Here's a transcript of our chat, in which we talk about the upcoming release and our new blog initiative. We hold Office Hours every week at 8AM PST on Wednesdays, so drop on in and say hi to the team! We've also got a sandbox booth at Google I/O where our team will be showing off how AppScale works, implements support for Google App Engine apps on-premise and in Amazon EC2 or Google Compute Engine, and can serve your business needs. If you were lucky enough to get a Google I/O ticket, we'd love to meet you!
Rich Wolski, a professor of Computer Science at UCSB, wrote up a great blog post about how you can create your own AppScale appliance. It details how you can combine a router, Eucalyptus, and AppScale to make your own private cloud, in your own closet. Check it out!
That wraps up issue #10 - thanks for reading! | | | |
