Highlights
- Automatic Backup
Last week we have released our new backup feature at LayerPanel v2.0. It is a simple solution to save all your server data in one click. LayerStack backups is a new tool that makes it easier for developers on the platform to back up their data from cloud servers at a single point in time. The automated backups will be run at regular intervals, allowing you to protect and recover your important business data. Pricing for backups is 15% of the cost of the cloud server per month. You may visit our product documentation for more details. Also, we have written a blog post about the most common cause of data loss of what we heard from our customers. We hope that you like it.
- Private Networking
The second highlight we want to share is private networking, it’s one many have requested, a dedicated VLAN that user can enjoy true private networks without share subnet with other users. The private networking acts like a private gigabit ethernet switch, connecting your servers together via a second virtual ethernet card and preferred address in each server. This connection is under a private and high capacity network within the same region, that isolate your servers and filter public access to secure your sensitive data. Enabling Private Networking for cloud server costs HK$10/month for each region. Traffic over Private Networking is free and doesn’t count against your bandwidth. You may visit our product documentation for more details.
We are currently still working on the panel features that we hope to release shortly. Please stay tuned for more news to come. Our developer team looking forward to receiving your feedback on the LayerPanel v2.0. You are more than welcome to help us identify the panel’s rough spots and share your insights and inspirations on what needs to be done at our Community.
