About Digest

Digest is an events API: your product sends events, Digest stores them, and you query them from the API, the dashboard or the CLI. These are its release notes.

What is here

• Releases: every version, with what changed, what broke and how to upgrade. Numbered, dated, and never edited after the fact except to add a correction that says so.
• Engineering: how the system is built and why, in enough detail to be useful to someone building something else.
• Incidents: every outage that affected customers, with a timeline and what changes. Published within a week.
• Guides: how to do the things people write to support about.

Cadence

A release roughly every two weeks. Engineering posts when there is something to say. Incident reports whenever there is an incident, which we hope is rarely.

Who writes it

The engineering team. Posts are signed by the team rather than by a person, except incident reports, which carry the name of whoever was on call.
