New role concept for Partner Area​

Audience: Partner, Operator
Component: meshfed

Description​

The "Partner Area" has been renamed to "Administration". Partner and Admin customers can now define more roles like Platform Operator, Controller, etc for their users. These roles have restricted access to the Adminsitration Area, so that they can only access the functionality they need.

meshMarketplace Metering​

Audience: Operator, User
Component: billing

Description​

meshStack now supports metering for meshMarketplace services. Users can view their project's service usage in the Metering section in the Panel once meshMarketplace metering has been enabled by an Operator.

How to use​

meshMarketplace metering requires deployment of the meshmarketplace-collector and meshmarketplace-collector components. Operators also need to configure a product catalog that includes products for marketplace service instances and plans. Metering will then automatically calculate service usage per project.

Platform notifications via email​

Audience: User

Description​

Users can chose to receive notifications for platforms they are interested in per email.

How to use​

Go to your profile and select for which platforms you wish to subscribe to email notifications. You can also select to only receive notifications above a certain minimal severity, i.e. to only receive critical notifications.
