Price changes are never pleasant but sometimes unfortunately necessary. On January 1, 2023, our prices will change. This price change is necessary because of substantially increased costs of our procurement; think of higher energy prices, higher prices for hardware, and higher wages. We will index the prices by 10% which will affect the prices of new and running services. Like instances, load balancers, storage, IP addresses, and DNS. For a complete price overview, check out our pricing page.

There they were, our Fuganeers, sitting in the sun behind the laptop. Vacation? No….. They were busy working, on Kubicon. They returned full of inspiration and impressions. They’ve seen and learned a lot, and now they’re all going to turn that into cool features for us! But not everyone was there. The “ones staying at home” have been working hard on something that had been on our wish list for a while; The DNS Global Pool.

We are still busy with EMK. We are picking up the first test results and are putting the last puzzle pieces in place. They will present Kubernetes 1.24 at KubeCon (May 16-20, 2022). You understand that Fuga will also be there with a delegation, sitting front row to hear about this major update. Because we love the product, but more than that, we want to support this version directly with Fuga EMK at this launch.

So much is going on, and there is a lot we have done. We showed ourselves at CloudFest 2022, and we had a couple of great days. While the stand crew presented Enterprise Managed Kubernetes with a demo, the home crew continued to work hard on the final phase of EMK. The end is in sight, and we can’t wait to show it to the world. CloudFest lookback It is Sunday evening, March 20, 2022, when we are at a test location in Alkmaar with a large delegation from the CysoGroup.

It’s a short newsletter this time. We are busy with a lot but have (still) little to show off. Our attention is - at this time - mainly focused on two projects; Enterprise Managed Kubernetes and CloudFest 2022. Enterprise Managed Kubernetes (EMK) in Fuga Cloud In the previous Fuga Cloud Fun & Facts, we already mentioned some highlights. We are now working at full speed to complete the project, and it promises to be beautiful.

The launch of our new cloud platform was dominating the year 2021. At this moment, it has proven to be very stable and not inferior to the biggest cloud providers in terms of performance. Something we are proud of, but we don’t sit still! We also took a closer look and have put some items on our wish list for this year. In this way, we continue to improve and optimize, but we also focus our attention on expanding our services.

Welcome to the first newsletter of 2022. We’ve now started again after the turn of the year with what we do best, continuously developing the cloud where web services/applications are available to all users worldwide. Recently, we have introduced significant cloud services such as anycast DNS and Global LoadBalancers on the platform but have also made many tiny improvements to the my.fuga.cloud portal. For example, to work with multiple developers via teams and pay on invoices for companies.

Where people use software, hackers will continue to look for vulnerabilities. And every once in a while, a security breach comes to light, which shakes the world to its foundations. On Friday, December 10, 2021, a leak was added to the illustrious list of predecessors, this time a leak in Apache Log4j. The vulnerability has been designated CVE-2021-44228 and is also known as Log4Shell or LogJam. The Apache Log4j 2 tool is part of the open-source Apache framework commonly used for logging Java applications.

The year is coming to an end and, we are busy wrapping things up. It’s a perfect time for an update in this newsletter. We stay busy with tutorials, how you can still earn swag, our NPS score, and a status update on Frankfurt and GAIA-X. Furthermore, Fuga Direct Connect is new and is now available to you. Lars, among others, has worked on this, and we would like to introduce him (and his hands) to you.

How was your Halloween? Didn’t it turn into a nightmare because backups weren’t good or servers went ghost? Here at Fuga we didn’t let ourselves be distracted by ghost stories but continued with what we were doing. There is little news to report in the FRA region, but developments there are progressing smoothly. We are working on our website, the Fugue Academy and of course our platform. No big news in that area right now, but that doesn’t mean we’re standing around and looking pretty.

The leaves are falling, autumn has really started, but at Fuga we are not going into a depression. On the contrary! Great weather to get behind the computer and continue developing our platform. Major steps have been taken again and luckily we can show that to you because some of them are live right now. GPU Some of you have been waiting for it for a while and eagerly awaited this moment; The High-performance GPUs are now available!

The holidays are over, but that doesn’t mean we’ve been doing nothing at Fuga these past few weeks. We have been busy with all kinds of improvements and developments. In the background and the “upcoming releases”, so keep an eye on the newsletter because nice things are coming soon. Help us improve ourselves We are only human and therefore we like to receive compliments. But we may learn even more from your questions, comments, and (constructive) feedback.

Most people celebrate vacation time, but we keep going full speed. New developments, new tutorial, fresh updates. So enough intro talk, on to the real Fun&Facts. GPU update The Beta testers have been busy and have done a great job. The prices have also been determined, so no questions left there. We will be working hard in the coming period to put the last dots on the I so we can go live with this service quickly.

It’s the first Tuesday of the month again and so it’s time for our newsletter. In addition to the facts, we also have an interview with Marino for you, you may have talked to him through the chat, this is an opportunity to read more about him. Are you missing something on our site or in our newsletter? Then we would like to hear your wishes and tips for manuals, content or functionalities that you still have on your wish list via an email to hello@fuga.

We have not been idle this past month and therefore have plenty of news to tell you. If you have additional questions, you can always open a chat on our website or send an email to hello@fuga.cloud. At that email address we would also like to receive your wishes and tips for manuals, content or functionalities that you have on your wish list. Fastest storage now scales with our compute flavors Our flavors on AMS2 have been updated.

For the last few months, we have been busy with our new region, AMS2. Now we have reached the point that every few weeks we have something fun to report. Serious matters but also fun facts we do not want to withhold from you. Fuga network less dependent on USA carriers We have recently optimized the Fuga network more for EU routes. A better distribution has now been chosen so that we are less dependent on US carriers.

We have launched our new region! In this mail, we will tell you about the improvements and new functionality of this region. You can use your current account to log into the new platform. We encourage you to do so and have a look. When you log in, you will see a pop-up to inform you about the new region. When you press the button, you can access the new region within seconds.

We are proud to announce our new Cloud region named AMS2. This region will launch on March 31st, 2021 at 10:00 AM. How do you get access to this new cloud region? When you are logged in on our current dashboardyou will see a pop-up telling you that you can roll out your own environment on AMS2. When you do this, you will have access to AMS2 within seconds. Your current environment on AMS1 will not be affected and you will be able to switch between both regions within the dashboard.

UPDATE: 12 MARCH 2020 Because our health is one of the most important things in our lives, we at Fuga Cloud are also concerned about the coronavirus. To safeguard the continuity of our services over a longer period, we will therefore take an extra set of precautionary measures; We split the employees of the Cyso Group into an A and B side. One team works at home for a whole week.

The successor of our first platform has been showing for more than half a year that it is a worthy successor! Not only in terms of performance and stability, but also the price / quality ratio has been upgraded. Release 2 has more functionality and a number of features will be added in the upcoming period, such as Kubernetes as a Service and DNS as a Service. Switch now All the more reason for us to say goodbye to our first release.

On June 17, 2019, Netflix researchers announced three vulnerabilities that have been discovered in the FreeBSD and Linux kernels. The vulnerabilities gives attackers the possibility to induce a denial-of-service by clogging network I/O on affected systems. This attack will result in a system crash of the server or instance. Since the announcement, our engineers have been mapping out the impact of these vulnerabilities and have taken several measures to protect the Fuga Cloud services.
