We are in the process for finalizing the next update to Halcyon. All of our hosting servers are on 6.1 with a few exceptions so this release will be bringing everything included in 6.2 too. The current changelog is:

6.2: CODENAME: PANAGARIS / 2018-06-03

  • Structured Data Parsing
  • Automatic Brotli compression
  • Use new API for Soteria
  • New self healing proxy engine
  • Internal sitemap engine update
  • AMP fully Supported
  • http2 push fully supported

6.4:CODENAME: ORIANTHI / 2018-08-20 (EST)

  • Core Changes (10%-12% speed increase)
  • Joomla 4.x Ready
  • New Wordpress Rules
  • Redis 4.x Redis
  • Switch to eSG mcache

We don't expect any additions or feature removal before its release on August.

Due to the nature of some of the changes, we will be rolling this release on newly booted VMs, this will have no effect on website uptime since they will be moved from the old VMs live. This release will make everything ready for some very interesting features coming up with 6.5/6.6 that will improve both serving speed and greater reliability to our hosting services.

Best Regards,
eSG NOC
