🚀 Exciting New Features in Omnistrate

We're thrilled to introduce several powerful updates that enhance flexibility, security, and operational control across the Omnistrate platform.

Bring Your Deployments (BYD)

If you've previously onboarded customers by installing your product via Helm directly, you can now seamlessly migrate those deployments into Omnistrate with BYD (Bring your Deployments). Simply import the deployment definition and continue managing it as you would with a new deployment. This allows you to unify all tenants under a single control plane, simplifying updates, improving visibility, and reducing the operational burden of maintaining separate, inconsistent deployments.

Omnistrate Secrets Management

We're introducing Omnistrate Secrets Management, a secure and centralized way to manage secrets per environment. You no longer need to embed credentials into service definitions or have to manually integrate with external secret managers. Instead, define and store secrets directly in the Omnistrate platform, making your deployments cleaner, more secure, and easier to manage—all from one place.

On-Prem Copilot Azure Support

On-Prem Copilot now supports Microsoft Azure, completing our vision of full multi-cloud compatibility across AWS, GCP, and Azure. Whether you're deploying in the cloud, on-prem, or in hybrid environments, you can now rely on a consistent operational experience. This unlocks even more flexibility for enterprise customers with diverse infrastructure strategies, ensuring that you can reach them wherever they are.

Additional Improvements

Automation

• Offboarding Automation: Offboarding from the Omnistrate is now fully automated and self-serve, reducing risk and simplifying the process. Whether you're evaluating or transitioning away, you can now confidently explore the platform knowing that exit paths are clean, reliable, and hassle-free.

• GPU Configuration in GCP and Azure: Omnistrate now supports a simpler way to set up GPU configuration in both GCP and Azure, allowing you to specify instance types and accelerators that best suit your workload. Take full advantage of cloud-native GPU offerings to run compute-heavy services efficiently and cost-effectively.

• Helm Chart Values Layering Support: We've introduced layered Helm values, enabling reusable, conditional configurations that simplify management of complex Helm charts. This makes it easier to support multi-cloud deployments by customizing parameters based on cloud providers or deployment environments, without duplicating configurations.

Reliability

• Improved isolation between System workload and Application workload: Kubernetes system nodes running core Control Plane services are now tainted to prevent unintended scheduling of application pods. Even pods without affinity rules won't land on system-critical nodes, ensuring better isolation and reliability. This is especially useful when deploying via Helm, as it enforces stricter boundaries and avoids performance issues or accidental use of nodes that don't meet your service's requirements.

• Storage Usage Alerts: Gain visibility into volume health and storage usage for your deployments. Omnistrate now monitors attached storage volumes and provides alerts when usage approaches capacity, helping you prevent disruptions and maintain optimal performance.

SaaSPortal improvements

• Custom Order for Input Parameters: Our no-code deployment forms are now more customizable—you can reorder input parameters to match your preferred structure or highlight key configuration options. This provides a more user-friendly experience for both internal teams and end customers managing deployments.

Usability

• Enhanced UX Navigation and Terminology: The Omnistrate portal now features a more intuitive and streamlined navigation experience, with improved terminology and clearer categorization across the UI. References to key components are now consistent and easier to understand, eliminating confusion and making it faster to locate the information you need to manage and operate your services.

• Performance Optimizations: We've made significant improvements across the platform to scale our APIs for customers, subscriptions, deployment cells, and instances. These enhancements boost overall responsiveness and reduce latency, especially for high-scale fleets, making operational tasks smoother and more efficient.

Other UX improvements:

• You can now terminate multiple workflows in a single action to speed up operations.
• Deployment Cells can now be loaded across all services or filter by a specific one for focused insights.
• Logs view improved with syntax highlighting and in-log search for easier debugging/troubleshooting.
• Subscription-specific pricing includes a complete audit trail for improved transparency.
• Billing status is displayed directly on the Service Plan card for quick visibility.
• Custom Metrics charts support negative values for more flexible analysis.
• K8s dashboard access is improved with one-click token copy and launch.
