• Real-time Updates: Real-time data updates ensure you're always in the loop, enabling you to make informed decisions without missing a beat.

• Mobile Compatibility: The new Management Console is fully responsive, so you can manage your systems effortlessly from any device, anywhere.

A Cutting-Edge Authorization System

Security is paramount at Aptranet, and we've taken security to the next level with our new authorization system. We've implemented an ironclad authorization system to protect your data and ensure that only authorized individuals have access to sensitive information.

The standout features of our new authorization system include:

• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Each user is assigned specific roles and permissions, ensuring they can access only what's necessary for their tasks.

• Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): We've added MFA for extra layers of security, making sure that accessing critical systems and data is as secure as possible.

• Auditing and Logging: Our system now offers comprehensive auditing and logging, enabling you to monitor and track every action within the Management Console for transparency and accountability.

Please note that our new authorization system is currently rolling out, and some features may not be available at this time.

Infrastructure Enhancements

At the heart of Aptranet's services lies a robust and dependable infrastructure. To ensure peak performance and the highest security standards, we've made substantial improvements.

Key improvements to our infrastructure include:

• Boosted Performance: We've streamlined our infrastructure for better performance, resulting in quicker response times and a smoother overall experience.

Our benchmarking process involved hosting a 250kb image on each platform and subjecting them to millions of requests across Aptranet Edge regions over a span of hours. The results were illuminating.

The EdgeStore Advantage

While traditional object storage services experience variability and sporadic response time spikes due to network conditions, Aptranet EdgeStore paints a different picture. We observed an astonishing 40% reduction in median Time To First Byte (TTFB) compared to Standard tier HDD storage and an even more impressive up to 90% reduction when compared to AWS S3. The 99th percentile measurement experienced a similar transformation. In testing, the 99 percentile TTFB improved by a remarkable 83% compared to both Google and AWS.

Disruptive Performance, Sensible Pricing

You might be wondering about the cost of such a revolutionary performance. The good news is that we've redefined expectations here as well. Despite the disruptive leap in performance, the Aptranet EdgeStore UltraIOPS tier comes at a price that defies convention. Our mission is to make next-generation global performance accessible to all, and that's why we're thrilled to announce that UltraIOPS is priced at just $0.03/GB per month per region, with absolutely no additional management or per-request fees. Remember, it's all SSD. Our Standard tier is priced lower than both AWS and Google's traditional object storage solutions, just at $0.02/GB per month and when you enable more than 2 regions it drops to $0.015/GB per month. Isn't that awesome?

A New Era of Performance

Performance unleashed. Possibilities unlocked. Aptranet EdgeStore.

For any business trying to prosper in the rapidly evolving world of technology, staying up-to-date with the newest trends and tools is essential. Recently, we at Aptranet decided to start from scratch and rebuild our backend. To increase security and scalability, the major objective was to transition from NodeJS and a NoSQL database to Golang and a relational database.

Our old set-up had been helpful to us at the start of the company, but as time passed, we recognized we needed a more durable solution. We decided to transition to Golang and a relational database after much study and preparation.

Golang is a language that combines security and performance in a special way, making it a fantastic option for complex corporate applications. Data integrity is one of our top concerns, and its robust typing and static type checking helps to ensure that. We have a lot more control over our code using Golang, which leads to faster better-performing code.

The change to a relational database had a substantial effect on our backend as well. We were able to guarantee data consistency and integrity with a structured data model in a way that was not achievable with a NoSQL database. The execution of sophisticated procedures on our data was further facilitated by the use of SQL queries.

However, advancements continued after that. Our backend has also received several new security improvements. For example, we implemented API key permissions, which control access to particular services based on the key used. This assisted us in guarding the privacy of our client's data and preventing unauthorized access.

Along with security, we concentrated on enhancing error handling. We were able to find and fix possible vulnerabilities by handling errors correctly before they became significant issues. This increased the security of our backend even further and made sure that our clients could entrust us with their private information.

Overall, it was a strategic choice for us to start fresh with our backend. We were able to increase security and scalability while maintaining the integrity of the data by migrating to Golang and a relational database. To further strengthen the security of our platform, we have included additional security features and enhanced error handling. At Aptranet, we're dedicated to providing the best level of security and performance to all of our clients.
