This release is all about visibility and control. The new Live Server Monitor streams a full telemetry snapshot from your host nodes every 10 seconds, giving you a top-like view of exactly what's happening on your infrastructure. High Availability Elections move quorum logic into the platform itself, making it dramatically simpler to build resilient multi-instance applications with a single acting primary. And on the networking side, custom routes, HA egress gateways with static IPs, and scoped internal API access give precise control over how traffic moves out of your containers, and what your workloads can reach.
