Since October 10, 3:00 am UTC we are experiencing higher rate of "Obsolete output mapping" user errors in transformation jobs. This issue is caused by a recent update of the transformation component. We'll be rolling back the release as soon as possible and keep you updated on further events.

UPDATE 8:45 am UTC: We have successfully deployed a previous version and all affected configurations should be working now. 

UPDATE October 13, 6:11 PM UTC: A new version with a fix has been released and deployed.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

There will be a maintenance period of Developer Portal on Saturday, October 12, 2019 from 6:00am UTC and should take around 1 hour.

We will be upgrading database infrastructure. This maintenance won't affect Connection nor any other Keboola service.

We hope that you can join us, but if not the webinar will be available on video by request afterward as well.

Cheers,

Your Keboola Team

On Saturday night, September 28-29th between 11:00pm - 8:20am we experienced failures of sending automated emails in EU region. Our monitoring shows only few jobs were affected, we recommend to double-check status of your recent orchestrations run. We apologize for the inconvenience.

A new release of the GoodData writer published on September 24, 2019, 3:17 pm UTC contained a bug affecting certain jobs in all regions. The bug caused the jobs to finish with an internal error.

We rolled it back to a previous version on September 25, 5:57 am UTC and all jobs are working now. We apologize for the inconvenience.

We have a problem with starting Jupyter sandboxes started at 12:58 UTC. 

We will provide an update when we'll have more information.

New Features

Julia sandboxes and transformations

We are happy to introduce a new Julia sandbox and Julia transformations. Both are in Beta preview for now; to try either of them, write a ticket to the support, and we will enable them for you. You can find more information about the Julia transformations in our documentation.

User roles

User roles are now available in all projects. We have added a new guest role that has only limited access to projects' resources. Learn more about roles in our documentation.

New Components

Brightloom Extractor (previously known as Eatsa) — downloads all your transactions and item details from the Brightloom POS system.

Summary

On Sunday, September 15th at 01:32 UTC, orchestrator and other component jobs started failing in the EU region. In the following hours, our worker servers weren't able to handle the workload, and the job backlog started to increase. We manually resolved the incident, and the platform was in full operation with a clean backlog at 08:26 UTC.

What happened?

Once we discovered the incident, we replaced all our worker servers and added more capacity to clean up the backlog faster.

What are we doing about this?

We are also working on a completely new job processing and scheduling mechanism that will prevent similar issues from occurring down the road. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
