Major updates to the graph
We have had the pleasure of seeing some very complex infrastructure being built in Massdriver. With that scale comes the need for optimizations. Given it is the central focus of our UI we have invested a great deal of time making the experience with our graph better!
Serverless ETL with batch processing, landing zones, and step-functions
Speed
We began to notice that complex interactions were taking longer and key actions were more difficult to find in our graph. The major focus of this overhaul is making it speedy and easy to navigate.
Deleting connections
Lines on the graph could be difficult to get a cursor on and delete. Now we have added icons to the lines to make it easier to make those changes.
Minimap
The bottom right corner of the graph now supplies a minimap which can help you navigate complex infrastructure quicker.
User defined layout
In more complex projects the auto layout can become unintuitive, we have added the ability for users to lay out the graph the way they want and we have made it persistent across sessions.
Environment Comparison
This particularly useful tool was overpopulated in larger environments. We found customers using it to ask questions about specific pieces of infrastructure. We wanted to make this feature easier to navigate and read!
