  And... the upgrade is complete.

  Hopefully a non-event for everyone!

  Reach out to support if you see any weirdness!

  Cheers,

Migration to MongoDB 8.0 - ask your questions!
• P Paul Winterhalder

  Reminder that the upgrade starts tonight -- and a note that we've bumped up the time.

  So we'll be starting the upgrade process at 6:30pm Eastern... (not 8pm as previously announced).

  Also note that the upgrade will be performed in two stages:

  Stage 1 - We upgrade from MongoDB 6 -> 7

  • Should take 25 - 35 minutes
  • We'll wait for 5 minutes after it's complete.

  Stage 2 - We upgrade from MongoDB 7 -> 8

  • Should again take 25-35 minutes.

  Hopefully all complete by 8pm Eastern.

  Paul.

Migration to MongoDB 8.0 - ask your questions!
• P Paul Winterhalder

  Hi folks,

  MongoDB is ending support for MongoDB 6.0 at the end of July, so we will upgrade all environments to MongoDB 8.0 by that date.

  The upgrade of the Public BaaS is targeted for Monday, July 7th.

  The official notice can be found link text.

  Let us know if you have any questions or concerns!

  Paul.

5.7 Discussion and Feedback!
• P Paul Winterhalder

  Oh - and one thing that wasn't in the release notes... we bumped up the Design Portal session timeout -- so if you go away from the portal and come back to it later -- there's a better chance that you can pick up from where you left off (instead of being booted and having to re-login).

  D'oh! We get it - we're all busy - and some folks are shy.

  That said - the more feedback we get, the better we understand what features the community is looking for! (We've got plenty of features queued and/or in development - but it's prioritizing them that's the real trick.)

  So let us know what works and what doesn't!

  For example, is the Self-Service Account Deletion useful? Or were you all just planning to handle it manually, making it less important?

  Paul.

  Hi folks,

  We have just released brainCloud 5.7 - and are eager to hear what you think!

  Do you like the new Team Dashboard?

  The new Node Usage pane in the Server Monitor?

  How about the Self-Service Branding and Account Deletion Features? Are they useful?

  Full details on the release here.

  We are eager to hear your thoughts!

  Paul.

Discussion - Promotions

  @francesco-lenolli
  For both of your questions, a single call -- GetEligiblePromotions() will do the work. It will return the values of maxPurchases and the caller's purchased, as well as the Unix timestamps for triggeredForUserAt and 'expiresForUserAt` for automated promotions.
