Feature

Dynamic response compression

Compress your app’s dynamic responses without writing any code, per location. Off by default.

Dynamic response compressionStatic files were already compressed, dynamic responses were not, so that work fell to your app runtime. The new dynamic_compression boolean under web.locations takes it off your hands.Off by default. Turn it on per location, then opt out per rule on authenticated paths. Brotli or gzip is picked from Accept-Encoding.It reintroduces the theoretical BREACH surface, so enable it only where your framework mitigates it. Read the docs.
Feature

Find performance bottlenecks faster

Automatically analyze your profiling data and code to pinpoint root causes and rank issues by user impact.

Find performance bottlenecks fasterAn AI agent that correlates your application profiling, traffic, and source code, then tells you what to fix.
The data to explain a slow endpoint is already there. Correlating a profile, your traffic, and the code to find the cause is the part that takes an afternoon.
The Performance Agent reads Upsun Blackfire profiles, continuous profiling data, traffic, and your application source from a deployed environment. The report explains the root cause in plain language, ranks findings by impact on user experience, and includes a code diff.

Feature

Task containers are now available to all

Spin up ephemeral, API-triggered containers for run-once workloads, from batch jobs to AI agents.

Task containers are now available to allRun-to-completion work, on demand.Task containers bring a new way to run work on Upsun: ephemeral containers that spin up on an API trigger, run a command with full access to your environment’s services, then shut down when the job is done. They handle any run-to-completion workload, from data migrations and report generation to batch processing, and they give background AI agents the isolated, on-demand compute they need.Billed only while a task runs, with CLI and Console support. Read the documentation to get started.
Feature

Self-host Meilisearch on Upsun

Run Meilisearch on Upsun using its official public Docker image.

Self-host Meilisearch on UpsunYou can now deploy Meilisearch on Upsun using its official public Docker image.This is the first verified example for self-hosted services from public Docker images. Upsun pulls the image from a public registry and runs it as-is, without requiring you to write a Dockerfile or maintain a build process.You can run any public Docker image as a self-hosted service, making it easy to experiment with other tools and services beyond Meilisearch.You remain responsible for the image version, maintenance, and security updates.
UI

See config changes in the activity log

Quickly see when deployment configuration changed.

See config changes in the activity logYou can now view configuration changes directly in the activity log. Open a commit activity and select Config changes to see the exact changes to your Upsun configuration files.Compare added and removed lines without leaving the Console or digging through Git, making it easier to understand what changed between deployments and troubleshoot issues faster.
Feature

Task containers, now in prerelease access

Run on-demand workloads in ephemeral, API-triggered containers. From batch jobs to AI agents.

Task containers, now in prerelease accessTask containers are a new infrastructure primitive: ephemeral containers that spin up on an API trigger, run a command with full access to your environment’s services, and shut down when done. They’re built for any run-to-completion workload, from data migrations and report generation to batch processing.Running isolated, on-demand code with scoped environment access, they’re also a natural fit for background AI agents.Available on Upsun Flex as a prerelease. Read the documentation to learn more and request access.

Feature

CPU & RAM autoscaling for workers

Automatically scale worker instances based on CPU and RAM usage.

CPU & RAM autoscaling for workersManaging worker instances manually often leads to a trade-off between over-provisioning for peak loads or risking performance bottlenecks. To simplify this, we are introducing horizontal autoscaling for workers on Upsun Flex.You can now configure your worker instances to scale automatically based on CPU and RAM utilization. This initial release provides a critical foundation for developers who need to handle resource-intensive processing without manual intervention.This feature is available immediately via the Console, CLI, and API for all projects on Upsun Flex.

Supercharge your PHP apps with FrankenPHP

FrankenPHP is now supported on Upsun, providing a high-performance alternative to traditional PHP-FPM setups.

Supercharge your PHP apps with FrankenPHPFrankenPHP is now supported on Upsun, providing a high-performance alternative to traditional PHP-FPM setups. By embedding the PHP runtime directly into the server, it reduces orchestration overhead and simplifies your application architecture.Key benefits:
  • Simpler Infrastructure: Combines the web server and PHP runtime into a single service, reducing the number of moving parts to maintain.
  • Flexible Execution: Choose Classic mode for drop-in, stateless compatibility, or Worker mode for maximum throughput by keeping your application in memory.
  • Integrated Observability: Full support for Blackfire profiling in both execution modes.
