SKUDONET continues to evolve with the latest update to its Enterprise Edition, version 10.0.6, which introduces several key improvements designed to offer even greater efficiency and a smoother user experience. Among the most notable changes are a significant optimization to the Weighted Round Robin algorithm, as well as enhancements in session management and greater control over farm creation. Here’s everything that comes with this new update.

Key Features of SKUDONET Enterprise Edition 10.0.6

  1. Optimized Weighted Round Robin Algorithm for HTTP/S Farms.
    One of the standout improvements in this update is the optimization of the Weighted Round Robin algorithm for HTTP/S farms. The system now distributes requests between servers not just evenly, but also considering the weight assigned to each server. This means that servers with higher capacity will receive more requests, improving overall system performance, especially in environments with servers of varying capacities. This optimization ensures a more efficient distribution and more effective use of resources.
  2. More Precise RBAC Management.
    With this new update, it is now possible to limit how many farms an RBAC (Role-Based Access Control) user can create. This added functionality gives administrators finer control over available resources for each user, helping to prevent uncontrolled farm creation and ensuring a more efficient management of the infrastructure.

Technical Improvements

  1. Deprecation of letsencryptz Binary.
    The letsencryptz binary has been deprecated in this update. This means it is still present in the system but is no longer recommended for use. Instead, the standard Let’s Encrypt certificate renewal process should now be used. This change simplifies and strengthens the management of SSL/TLS certificates, making the process more robust and reliable.
  2. Improved Session Management in L4xNAT Farms.
    Session management in L4xNAT farms has been enhanced, optimizing performance and improving session traceability. These improvements make managing user connections easier and ensure a more stable experience, even in high-traffic environments.
  3. Improved IPDS Stats Collector Logging.
    IPDS Stats Collector action logs have been optimized by removing unnecessary entries, making it easier to view relevant information and improving log management.

Bugfixes

  1. Fixed PEM Certificate List Issue.
    A problem with PEM certificates protected by a password has been resolved. The system now correctly displays a list of certificates, even when they are password-protected.
  2. Fixed IPDS Stats Data Parsing.
    Issues with parsing the data collected by IPDS have been addressed, ensuring that all traffic statistics are now accurately collected without any missing information.

Why the Round Robin Improvement Matters

The Weighted Round Robin algorithm is key to improving traffic distribution between servers with different capacities. With this new optimization, SKUDONET ensures that more powerful servers are not overloaded and that overall system performance remains stable, even during peak traffic times. This improvement enhances user experience by reducing wait times and improving service availability.
