Happy holidays!

This is going to be a pretty short report. I'm taking some time off for the holidays. I might work a bit on Ymir, but it'll be by choice or to do support.

I plan on starting back on the second week of January. So it might be a month before the next report.

Otherwise, it's been a quiet cycle.

PRODUCT

You can always view the history of Ymir's product development at https://ymirapp.com/changelog.

I spent most of the cycle just wrapping up the work on the CloudFront cache invalidation. I had quite a few bugs with it and released some fixes throughout the week. But it seems to be working fine now! 🤞

MARKETING

I've been working on a huge CloudFront guide. It's done and ready to go! I decided that to hold off publishing it until next year.

My @cloudfront page caching article is pretty much done. But I don't think it makes sense publishing it on December 23rd. Seems better to wait after the holidays. 
Thoughts?

Business is continuing to grow this month. I've had a few trials. All, but one converted so far. There's one more left that converts on December 30th. If that works out, then I'll be at 17 subscribers :)

Ymir Report #88 — SQS queues are here! 🚀

Heya friend! Carl here. You signed up to receive updates about Ymir, the WordPress serverless DevOps platform that I’m building. INTRO Fall is almost here! August has been super busy with a lot of work going on behind the scenes. I'm happy to say that Ymir now supports SQS queues. 🥳 The feature is live and documented in the configuration reference and change log. There isn't much else to do with it for now. I'm not adding SQS support for WordPress yet, so this is really for Laravel support....
