Cover for Changelog

Baselime CDK

We understand the value of Observability as Code - it enables you to keep observability as a first-class citizen of your architecture. We’re introducing Baselime CDK, a set of CDK constructs to interact with the Baselime management API directly from your AWS CDK code. Create all your queries, alerts and dashboards within the CDK.

Markers API

You can now create markers using the Baselime API. Markers indicate significant or interesting events that occurred in your architecture, outside of your telemetry data - they’re typically used for deployments and can also be used to mark migrations, outages or system upgrades.

The Baselime Markers API is currently available at https://go.baselime.io/v1/markers. Markers will be implemented visually in the console in the coming weeks.

Simplified CLI

The Baselime CLI is continuously being improved based on your feedback (thanks!). We have removed most of the “management” commands in favour of brevity and simplicity. Also, we renamed a few commands to better reflect your understanding of their purpose.
