Netris Release 3.1.0
Release Date: 1 August 2022
Kubernetes was born in the public cloud, and made its way everywhere. S3 storage was born in the public cloud and made its way everywhere. The 3rd thing that is missing beyond the public cloud is the self-service VPC Networking of the public cloud.
With Netris 3.1.0 we start bringing VPC Networking to anywhere. We start delivering on this important mission with our partner Equinix. Today we bring VPC Networking to Equinix Metal.
