Here’s an end of the year present for you .NET developers!
Microsoft released .NET 8 last month. While it was always possible to deploy .NET 8 applications to our cloud hosting environment using Self-Contained Deployment (SCD), we now have .NET 8 (ASP.NET Core 8) installed on our cloud hosting servers. This means that customers can use Framework-Dependent Deployment (FDD) and Visual Studio 2022 to deploy their .NET 8 (ASP.NET Core 8) applications.
Happy Coding!

We’ve been seeing a rise in the number of hacking incidents with our customer’s control panels. To help secure Control Panel access, Everleap now supports Two-Factor Authentication access to the Control Panel using Authentication Apps, like Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator.
At the same time we launch Authentication App support for 2FA Control Panel access, we will be restricting the existing Phone Text Message authentication to USA- and Canada-based phone numbers only. We are finding that each country has different and evolving rules and wildly varying costs that is making support for all international phone numbers difficult and resource consuming.
In general, we recommend using Authentication Apps for 2FA access.
Check out our knowledge base article to learn how to enable 2FA and secure your control panel login, today!
Stay Safe!

We often field questions about the differences between our Everleap Managed Hosting service and Public Cloud platforms. To address this topic, we previously published an article about the differences between Everleap Managed Hosting and Azure.
In this post, we will examine differences between Everleap Managed Hosting and Amazon AWS.
In 2022, the EU and US reached an agreement on a new EU-US Data Privacy Framework to replace the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework, which was struck down by an EU court some time ago. On July 17th, 2023, the US Department of Commerce announced the launch of the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program and website.
Everleap has attained the EU-US Data Privacy Framework certification along with the UK Extension and the Swiss-US Data Privacy Framework Certification. We worked with our privacy management solutions partner, TRUSTe (part of TrustArc) to verify our practices against the Framework principles.
For more information about the Data Privacy Framework program, you can visit dataprivacyframework.gov. We have updated our Privacy Policy and it is posted online here.

SQL 2022 is available as a new option for your Shared SQL database in our Shared Cloud Hosting Plans or for Private SQL database servers. You can create shared SQL 2022 databases or order Private SQL servers in your Everleap Control Panel.
Microsoft released .NET 7 in the last quarter of 2022. While it was always possible to deploy .NET 7 applications to our cloud hosting environment using Self-Contained Deployment (SCD), we now have .NET 7 (ASP.NET Core 7) installed on our cloud hosting servers. Therefore, customers can use Framework-Dependent Deployment (FDD) and Visual Studio 2022 to deploy their .NET 7 (ASP.NET Core 7) applications.

We often get questions regarding the differences between our Everleap Managed Hosting solutions and hosting at Microsoft Azure. So I thought I’d address this question here.
Let me say first that Microsoft Azure is a powerful public cloud platform. It is built for developers and can run virtually anything. Microsoft is continuously adding more functionality to address very niche technological use cases. Everything you can do on our Everleap platform, you can do on Azure. So, it is natural for anyone to ask then, compared to the Azure behemoth, why does Everleap even try to compete?
It’s a good question and the answer is that we are not really trying to compete with Azure on hosting technologies. We know that Azure will always have a deeper technology stack and a much bigger footprint than we will ever have. While our hosting functionality can overlap with Azure, Everleap fills a different need in the market. We focus on delivering services to small- and medium-sized businesses. We are not trying to be all things for all use cases. Plainly speaking, sometimes you may need the many tools of a Swiss army knife and other times you just need a good pair of scissors.
