1.3.0: Release Notes
The DSim Cloud Platform's Release 1.3.0 includes an important feature that automatically pauses idle remote workspaces after 20 minutes of inactivity. This helps prevent unwanted costs for users who leave their workspaces idle. The workspace is considered idle only when no remote commands are running.
With this release, users can manage their workspaces more easily from the Web Portal and can now use up to 5 active workspaces instead of just 1. Metrics is committed to providing a cost-effective cloud RTL simulation solution, and this release is a step towards ensuring that simulation spend is saved for when it's needed.
Below is the complete list of features and bugs contained within the release.
