This month you may have noticed something new on the pricing page: two new flavours showed up. Two new pretty big flavours: 2XL and 3XL.

The Weekly Platform Update is a series of posts about every impactful changes on Clever Cloud. You'll find the updated parts of Clever Cloud below, to follow fixes, updates, new products and more on a weekly basis.

After all these years, our Web console's codebase needed some technical updates. We chose new libraries to build our UI (templating, components...) and decided to introduce them progressively, feature by feature.

In order to test this new stack, we chose to improve an existing feature: the environment variables.

We'll get into the "under the hood" details in another article. For now, let's focus on what's new from the user's perspective.

Today the Clever Cloud team is happy to release Clever Grid, our new GPUs as a Service offering. Because we think life should be as easy for data scientists as it is for developers when it comes to running code.

In November 2018, we released the Cellar C2 cluster. Every new cellar account since then uses the new cluster. Previously created add-ons remain on the old one.

Fat Models and skinny Controllers right?

You know what they say about the MVC design pattern, keep your Controllers light.
So at the beginning of your project, you added oil and gears to your Models and it was rolling just fine. Even if I'm not a big fan of the big Model that even makes coffee (sending an email, really?), I can say that you were in perfect harmony with the framework principles.
Well, a few iterations later, this idyllic codebase seems very far away and your Controllers and Models are way more '200 line'ish than they used to be.
