Elastic Server Factory Update Hightlights 4/2/09

We are constantly updating the Elastic Server Factory and while some of these releases fly under the radar we wanted to highlight some really cool new additions. These features and functions are aimed at making your Elastic Server life even easier. This post will be the first in a series where we will outline and exhibit new features that are not part of major releases.

On to the good stuff!
This release along with some minor housekeeping comes with three new features:

1. You can now make your own components (BYO) from Rubygems. Just upload a .gem file and we'll take care of the rest.


2. It's now easy to substitute a version of a bundle right from the server configuration page, making server rebuilds and remastering easy.


3. You can now mark packages as specific to particular OS'es, and search for them in the bundle explorer.

The above too small for you? Check out a larger pop-up version here.

Boomtown.
