4.0
The new major version brings the following new features:
- laitos can now run as an AWS lambda function. In combination with AWS API gateway, you can run laitos web server using the latest & flashiest "serverless" cloud computing feature.
- New daemon phone home telemetry sends system information and resource usage to your own laitos servers for telemetry keeping. Optionally, your laitos servers may remotely control a monitored system by running a password-protected app command on it.
- In addition to collecting telemetry information from computer systems, laitos server also integrates with LoRa - The Things Network to collect telemetry location data from your IoT devices. Optionally, your IoT device may remotely control your server by running a password-protected app command on it.
Notable enhancements:
- Allow app user to use one-time-password to enter a password PIN, this is especially useful for transmitting the password PIN over less secure channels such as SMS and telephone calls.
- For routine automated operations that require reading laitos server's public IP address, the address is now cached for couple of minutes to allow for reuse.
- If an incoming Email demands strong DMARC validation to be performed by Email clients, then alter the Email's From address before forwarding it, to ensure a much higher likelihood of delivery.
Notable bug fixes:
- Fix rare crashes in common UDP server routines.
- Remove default RSS sources and default public DNS resolvers that have gone offline since last release.
