  • Implemented integration with Datadog. Datadog offers cloud-based monitoring and analytics platform which integrates and automates infrastructure monitoring, application performance monitoring, and log management for real-time observability of customers. You can configure it as storage for Aidbox logs. The detailed guide on how to use Datadog monitoring capabilities in your Aidbox-based system you can find here. This is an easy way to leverage HIPAA-compliant log management SaaS platform to unify logs, metrics, and traces in a single view.

  • Logs that are published on Aidbox startup are cleaned up from useless data.

  • SSL connection between Aidbox and PostgreSQL is now supported. Please, read the configuration instructions for more details.
