Release Notes – 2023.06.08

June 8, 2023

Highlights

  • Infrastructure changes to support server side rendering
    In our ongoing efforts to improve search indexing and results in various site performance analysis tools, one of our next steps is to investigate server side rendering options to further improve the “first impression” that the robots that do that kind of indexing and analysis encounter. This release contains a significant amount of refactoring to the react application that implements our client side experience to enable server side rendering in the future.
  • Infrastructure improvements to the new testdrive and direct signup systems
    Having now successfully rolled out the second major process using our new transactional operation infrastructure, this release we took some time to make changes and improvements to the core design of the infrastructure to further improve upon it’s existing strengths of being highly functional and reusable. These improvements will directly impact next stage of this ongoing project (the activation process), but should not have any visible impact in existing systems in this release.
