February/March 2024 Changelog

Overall, Q1 has been a refocusing time at Coherence. Alongside the improvements above, we have been working on the concept for “what does Coherence v2 look like?” In March, we’ve been deep into the work to produce it, and by the end of May we plan to release it into the wild. Really excited to show you all what we’ve been working on and we know you’ll love it. Thanks so much to the folks who we’ve spoken with along the way who have helped us refine the design and make sure it’s going to work for more advanced use cases. As a teaser, v2 is all about customizability and exposing the low-level building blocks that let Coherence provide a great developer experience on top of cloud providers. We’ll be heads-down for a bit longer but we see the light at the end of the tunnel!
