Release History
Use the Release History tab in Facets to track a resource's blueprint, override, and artifact changes, view Terraform logs, and roll back to prior versions.
The Release History tab maintains a chronological record of all changes made to a resource within a specific environment. It provides detailed insights into how your resource has evolved over time, tracking everything from configuration changes to deployment updates.
Use Cases
The Release History tab is particularly useful for:
- Viewing Release Details: Understand what changes were made, who made them, and when they were applied.
- Analyzing Changes: Identify differences in configurations, deployments, and updates to investigate potential issues.
- Tracking Deployments: Gain visibility into deployments across environments to ensure stability and consistency.
Functionality
The Release History tab includes the following key features:
1. Change Types
- BLUEPRINT: Changes to the base configuration in your blueprint.
- OVERRIDE: Environment-specific configuration changes.
- ARTIFACT: Updates to deployed images or artifacts.
2) Action Buttons
- View Release Details: Navigate to the release details page.
- View Terraform Logs: Check the complete terraform logs for quick reference.
- Resource Rollback: Resource Rollback lets you instantly switch a resource (artifact, blueprint, and override) back to a previously deployed version. It is a non-destructive, quick recovery tool used to stabilize a system after a bad deployment without reverting ongoing changes or deleting anything.
The Release History tab provides complete visibility into your resource's lifecycle, enabling DevOps teams and developers to track, analyze, and manage changes effectively. By leveraging the available features, you can ensure smooth deployments and maintain configuration consistency across environments.
Overriding Resources
Override resource configuration per environment in Facets without changing the blueprint, using Form or JSON mode, version history, and rollback.
Resource Actions
Resource Actions in Facets let teams run on-demand, containerised operations on resources as governed self-service workflows, recorded as Action Runs.
