v2.4Apr 18, 2026
NewInfra

Persistent volumes, Postgres 16, custom domains in 20s

Volumes — mount persistent storage on any project. SSD-backed, 3x replicated, 99.999% durability. Attach one with `pxxl volume create --size 10GB`.

Postgres 16 — now the default for new databases. Existing 15.x DBs can be upgraded in-place with zero downtime via the dashboard.

Custom domains verify in ~20 seconds. We've cut the TLS handshake delay, parallelized DNS propagation checks, and pre-warm edge certs.

v2.3Apr 4, 2026
RegionPerf

Cape Town region, faster cold starts, auth rewrite

cpt-1 — our third African region is live. 24ms to Johannesburg, 58ms to Nairobi, 190ms to Lagos over the new cross-AF backbone.

Cold starts on edge functions dropped from 140ms → 18ms p50. V8 isolate warm pool, tighter runtime trees.

Magic-link auth rewrite — single-use, 10-minute tokens, passkey support on login.pxxl.app.

v2.2Mar 19, 2026
NewCLI

Preview deploys per-PR, database branching, faster CLI

Every PR gets a live preview URL — with a branched copy of your production database. Merge the PR, the branch DB gets rolled up or discarded.

`pxxl deploy` is 2.8x faster — we cache node_modules by lockfile hash, reuse build output between deploys, and stream logs over WebSocket.

The CLI binary is 3MB smaller after switching to esbuild and dropping legacy polyfills.

v2.1Mar 3, 2026
SecurityNew

Redis 7, audit logs, DDoS protection on by default

Redis 7 is GA — available in every region, with Redis Streams and ACLs enabled.

Audit logs on Pro and Enterprise — every API call, deploy trigger, and env var change tracked with actor, source IP, and context.

Layer-7 DDoS protection is on for every project. No config, no upcharge.

v2.0Feb 14, 2026
MajorInfra

Pxxl v2 — platform rebuild

Rebuilt from the ground up. New scheduler (Nomad → bespoke Go), new router (nginx → Envoy), new CLI (Node → Rust).

Build times dropped 60% on median. Deploy-to-live in under 30 seconds for most projects.

Africa-first pricing in Naira, Kenyan Shilling, and Rand. Local support hours. Regional compliance (NDPR, POPIA).

v1.12Jan 22, 2026
NewFix

Bun runtime, terraform provider, fix: DNS propagation

Bun 1.2 — deploy Bun apps with zero config. Detected automatically from `bun.lockb`.

Official Terraform provider for provisioning projects, databases, and domains declaratively.

Fixed — DNS propagation verification sometimes hung on CNAMEs ending in `.dev` due to HSTS preload. Now handled correctly.
