New features & improvements
Main features
Usage of Docker Hub
This release we switched our artefact delivery process from a manual approach to an automatic distribution via docker hub. From now on each release will be automatically delivered via our build pipeline to docker hub. From there customers can pull the newest release on their schedule or for existing installations use the auto-patcher. The auto-patcher will get the latest release and wait for you to do the update, or depending on your configuration patch the SSP by itself. This streamlines our release process and ensures that our customers are up to date.
