Wialon Hosting Release Notes

(edited by Kirill Yakunin 21/09/2016 15:30:57)

Topic: Wialon Hosting Release Notes

Before new functionality comes to stable release, it’s thoroughly tested in a separate Wialon version at dev.hosting.wialon.com.

We move on and introduce more flexible settings of Wialon Hosting versions.

Now there are three branches: Stable, Beta and Dev, where:

Stable is a branch with functionality which has undergone all stages of testing. It’s rarely updated with new features.

Beta is a branch containing the latest functions developed for the monitoring system. This branch is intended for the analysis of Wialon Hosting updates. Beta version is available for user DNS and http://hosting.wialon.com .

Dev is an established branch available at dev.hosting.wialon.com. Here you dip into the future and try most recent Wialon features. Dev version can still be used to try the new developments, whenever access to Beta is restricted by a top account.

Wialon Hosting Release Notes

In CMS Manager 'User Settings' dialog of a top user now contains 'Branches' tab. This tab provides a possibility to choose branches for user DNS available: Stable, Beta and Stable/Beta. The option “Stable/Beta” allows users for utilizing this DNS to be able to switch between branches on the login page of the monitoring system. In other words, if something goes wrong a user can always get back to the stable Wialon Hosting version.

The novelty is under development and the release is expected by the end of the day. Looking forward to your comments and suggestions to achieve the advanced user experience while using beta.

Wialon Hosting Release Notes

Re: Wialon Hosting Release Notes

I'd like to inform you that we have changed the cycle of WialonHosting updates. They will be released more often now. But according to the old tradition, all new features are installed in Beta first. So, today the following functions were installed:
- After the unit is selected in the monitoring panel, the system centers the map and zooms it to the unit location. We pre-set the optimum zooming level and made it standard for all users.
- Security first: if a user logs in to the system for the first time, he’ll have to set up the new password instead of the existing one. This user will be the only one who knows the updated password.

Wialon Hosting Release Notes

Re: Wialon Hosting Release Notes

New features are available in Beta:

- Binding reports to dynamically updated unit groups. If units enter or leave groups when a certain event occurs, you can still bind them to reports. In that case, units bound to reports will appear and disappear depending on their presence in that group.
- Seasonal fuel consumption rates. Check out “Advanced” tab in “Unit Properties” and find "Winter consumption" checkbox. Activate it, select the season duration and start simple fuel management.
