v1.14.6 • 2026-03-17
Spheron AI: Open All Inbound Ports by Default
ImprovementsAll ports open out of the box — Spheron AI provider VMs now have full inbound access (TCP/UDP/ICMP, ports 1–65535, IPv4 and IPv6) applied automatically at creation time, with no manual firewall configuration required.
- Security rules at creation: Six inbound rules (TCP 1–65535, UDP 1–65535, and ICMP for both IPv4 and IPv6) are now passed directly in the VM creation payload via the
security_rulesfield, replacing the previous post-creation polling approach - Removed background firewall task: Eliminated the
enableSSHFirewallWhenActivepolling loop (up to 10-minute wait) and the separateenableSSHFirewallmethod that made individualPOST /sg-rulescalls after the VM reached ACTIVE state - No more
sshFirewallErrortracking: Removed thesshFirewallErrorMap, thesshFirewallErrorfield onVMInstance, and all related error-surface logic — firewall setup is now atomic with VM creation
v1.14.5 • 2026-03-16
GPU Count Validation Hardening
Bug FixesStricter GPU count validation — deployment requests with a mismatched GPU count are now rejected reliably regardless of whether the value arrives as a string or a number, and validation errors are propagated correctly through the error-handling pipeline.
- Type-safe GPU count comparison: The GPU count check now coerces both the requested value and the offer config value to
Numberbefore comparing, preventing false validation failures caused by string/number type mismatches (e.g.,"2"vs2) - GpuValidationError class: Introduced a dedicated
GpuValidationErrorsubclass so that GPU validation errors are identified withinstanceofrather than fragileerror.message.startsWith(...)string matching — eliminating the risk of silently swallowing errors or misclassifying HTTP status codes if the message text changes - Route-level fix:
deployment.routes.tsnow usesinstanceof GpuValidationErrorto classify the error as an HTTP 400, replacing the previouserror.message.includes('Invalid GPU count:')check
v1.14.4 • 2026-03-15
Feature Announcement Modal & Sidebar Changelog Link
New FeaturesStay up to date without leaving the dashboard — a new in-app feature announcement modal greets users with what's new since their last visit, and the sidebar now links directly to the changelog.
- Feature Announcement Modal: Automatically shows authenticated users any features released since their last visit — slides through announcements newest-first with story-style progress bars, smooth slide transitions, and a 25-second auto-advance timer
- Per-User Tracking: Last-seen feature is persisted — the modal only re-appears when genuinely new features have shipped
- Learn More Links: Each announcement card links directly to the relevant docs or changelog section
- Changelog Sidebar Link: A compact "Changelog" entry with a "New" badge now lives in the sidebar bottom dock alongside the API Docs link, opening
docs.spheron.network/changelogin a new tab
v1.14.3 • 2026-03-14
Sesterce Deployment Reliability Fix
Bug FixesSesterce deployments no longer fail on name collisions — a
409 Conflicterror that occurred when instance names clashed is now handled automatically with a unique suffix and retry logic.
- 409 Name Collision: Sesterce's
/gpu-cloud/instancesAPI rejects duplicate instance names with a 409. Deployment names are now suffixed with a random 6-character hex string (crypto.randomBytes(3).toString('hex')) to prevent collisions - Retry Logic: If a 409 still occurs (e.g. extremely unlikely suffix collision), the deployment automatically retries with a freshly generated name — up to 3 attempts before failing
- Status Code on Errors:
makeAuthenticatedRequestnow attachesstatusCodeto thrown errors, enabling reliable detection of 409 vs other failure types - SSH Key Cleanup: If all retry attempts are exhausted, any provisioned temporary SSH key is deleted to prevent resource leaks
v1.14.2 • 2026-03-14
TensorDock Deployment Fix & Improved Error Reporting
Bug FixesTensorDock deployments now work reliably — fixed a
400 Bad Requesterror that blocked all TensorDock deployments, and deployment failures now show human-readable error messages in the dashboard.
- TensorDock 400 Error: Removed an incorrect JSON wrapper (
data.attributes) that was wrapping the request payload — TensorDock's API v2 expects a flat JSON body - Field Name Casing: Renamed
useDedicatedIp(camelCase) →use_dedicated_ip(snake_case) to match TensorDock's API contract - Cloud-Init Format: Converted
cloud_initfrom a JSON object to a YAML string, consistent with how other providers (e.g. Spheron AI provider) handle startup scripts
- Human-Readable Failure Reasons: TensorDock JSON error responses are now parsed and classified into user-friendly categories (e.g. "Insufficient resources", "Invalid configuration") stored as
failureReasonon the deployment - Failure Details in Sidebar:
InstanceDetailsSidebarnow surfacesfailureReasonandfailureDetailsso users can see exactly why a deployment failed without digging through logs
v1.14.1 • 2026-03-04
DataCrunch Shared Volume Support
New Provider SupportShared NFS volumes on DataCrunch — create persistent NFS-backed volumes, attach them to multiple instances simultaneously, and keep your data safe after instance termination.
- DataCrunch Volumes: DataCrunch (Verda) is now an active shared-volume provider — create and manage
NVMe_SharedNFS volumes directly from the dashboard - Multi-Instance Attachment: A single DataCrunch shared volume can be attached to multiple GPU instances simultaneously (NFS-backed), unlike Voltage Park which restricts volumes to one instance
- Region Selection: Choose from dynamically fetched DataCrunch regions — FIN-01 (Finland 1), FIN-02 (Finland 2), and FIN-03 (Finland 3) — with country flag indicators (🇫🇮) in the region dropdown
- Persistent Volumes: DataCrunch volumes survive instance termination by default — only deleted on explicit user action
- 1 Volume Per Instance Rule: Each DataCrunch instance supports at most 1 shared volume at a time — enforced on both create and attach paths; the same volume can still be attached to unlimited instances concurrently
- Commission-Aware Pricing: Storage pricing fetched dynamically from DataCrunch's volume types API
- New Regions Endpoint:
GET /api/volumes/regions?provider=<provider>returns available regions and volume types per provider, powering the region dropdown in the create volume wizard - Mount Info Persistence: NFS mount command, pseudo-path, and API key identifier are stored per-volume and backfilled on first access for seamless attach/detach workflows
v1.14.0 • 2026-03-03
New GPU Provider: Europe & North America Regions
New GPU InventoryMore GPUs, more regions — a new provider is now available on the Spheron AI marketplace, adding H200, H100, A100, L40S, A6000, and A4000 inventory across Canada, Norway, and the US.
- GPU Models: H200 SXM, H100 SXM5 / NVL / PCIe, A100 SXM4 / NVL / PCIe, L40S, L40, A6000, RTX Pro 6000, A4000
- Regions: Canada (Montreal), Norway (Bergen), United States
- On-Demand & Spot: Both instance types are available — spot instances offer the same GPU configurations at a lower price with no uptime guarantee
- Startup Scripts: Cloud-init startup scripts are supported — packages, run commands, and file writes all work on this provider the same as others
- OS Options: 11 OS images to choose from, including Ubuntu 22.04/24.04, AlmaLinux 9, Debian 12, and CUDA-enabled variants (R535, R550, R570) — defaults to Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS with CUDA 12.8 and Docker
- SSH Access: Port 22 is automatically opened on every new instance — no manual firewall configuration needed
v1.13.1 • 2026-02-27
Password Complexity Enforcement on Signup
Bug FixesStronger account security — signup now enforces password complexity rules before any Firebase call, giving users immediate, clear feedback.
- Weak Password Allowed: The signup form previously accepted any non-empty string as a password, including the user's own email address — this is now blocked
- No Complexity Checks: Passwords with no uppercase, no lowercase, or no digits were accepted without warning — all three are now required
- Minimum 8 characters
- Cannot be identical to your full email address (case-insensitive)
- Cannot be identical to the local part of your email (the portion before
@) - Must contain at least one uppercase letter
- Must contain at least one lowercase letter
- Must contain at least one digit
- Inline Error Messages: Validation failures are shown immediately below the password field with a specific explanation — no generic Firebase errors
- Live Clearing: The error clears on every keystroke in the password field, and also when the email field is changed (prevents a stuck form if a "password too similar to email" error was triggered and the user updates their email instead)
- Gated Submit: The sign-up button stays disabled while a password validation error is active
v1.13.0 • 2026-02-27
Auto Top-Up Credits via Stripe
Saved Card ManagementNever run out of credits — configure a balance threshold and Spheron automatically charges your saved card to keep your deployments running.
- Save a Card: Add a payment card via Stripe's hosted setup flow (no card numbers stored — only a Stripe PaymentMethod ID)
- Card Details: Saved card brand, last 4 digits, and expiry are shown in the billing page at all times
- Remove Card: Detach your saved card from Stripe entirely — automatically disables auto top-up if it was enabled
- Role-Gated Access: Only team owners and admins can save or remove cards; members see card info in read-only mode
- Enable / Disable Toggle: Turn auto top-up on or off from the billing page
- Threshold Setting: Set the balance level (min $5, max $500) that triggers an automatic charge
- Top-Up Amount: Choose how much to charge each time (min $15, max $5,000)
- Immediate Check: Enabling auto top-up immediately checks your balance and triggers a charge if already below threshold
- Failure Banner: A warning banner appears on the billing page if auto top-up was disabled due to a declined charge
- Balance-Triggered Charge: After each credit deduction cycle, if your team balance falls below the configured threshold, a Stripe off-session PaymentIntent is created and charged automatically
- 5-Minute Cooldown: A distributed lock prevents double-charging — top-ups cannot fire more than once every 5 minutes per team
- Race Condition Safe: Balance is re-fetched inside the lock before charging to prevent concurrent monitor cycles from triggering duplicate charges
- Instant Credit: Team balance is credited immediately on successful charge without waiting for a webhook
payment_intent.succeeded: Idempotent safety net — credits the team if the service layer missed it (e.g. network failure mid-request)payment_intent.payment_failed: Automatically disables auto top-up and recordslastFailedAtwhen a card is declined
- Auto top-up charges appear in Deposit History labeled "Auto Top-Up" with a distinct badge, clearly separated from manual credit purchases
- Success Email: Confirms the charge amount and shows the new account balance
- Failure Email: Notifies the configuring user that their card was declined and auto top-up has been disabled, with a direct link to re-enable
v1.12.2 • 2026-02-27
Mandatory Phone Number on Reserved GPU Form
Bug FixesRequired contact info — phone number is now enforced end-to-end so reserved GPU requests always include reachable contact details.
- Mandatory Phone Field: Phone number is now a required field on the Reserved GPU request form — the label, frontend validation, and server-side validation all enforce it
- Format Validation: Phone input is validated against a format check (supports
+, digits, spaces, dashes, parentheses — e.g.+1 555-123-4567or(555) 123-4567) with a minimum of 7 digits, on both client and server - Review Step Gate: If contact info (including phone) is incomplete when the user reaches the review step, the wizard redirects back to the contact form with a clear "Contact Info Required" toast notification
- Backwards Compatibility: Existing reservations without a phone number are unaffected — the schema change is non-breaking for legacy documents
v1.12.1 • 2026-02-23
Zero-Downtime Deployment & Faster Container Restarts
Deployment ScriptsInstant restarts, no build delays — app builds are now baked into the Docker image so containers spin up in seconds instead of minutes.
- Zero-Downtime Deploy: New
script/deploy.shfor all the apps — builds the new image while the current container keeps serving traffic, then hot-swaps to the new container with no manual downtime - Health-Gated Rollout: The deploy script waits for Docker's health check to pass (up to 120s) before declaring success, ensuring the new container is fully ready before traffic is handed off
- Build at Image Time:
npm run buildnow runs duringdocker build(image layer) instead of at container startup — containers start in seconds rather than waiting for a full compile - Health Checks Added: All app's Dockerfiles now include
HEALTHCHECKdirectives with 10s intervals and 30s start periods so Docker and the deploy script can reliably detect readiness
v1.12.0 • 2026-02-23
Volume Management UI for Voltage Park
New PagesFull persistent storage experience — create, browse, attach, detach, resize, and monitor volumes directly from the dashboard.
- Volumes Page (
/volumes): Dedicated page to view and manage all your persistent storage volumes in one place — with status badges, provider/region info, hourly rates, and quick actions - Create Volume Page (
/create-volume): Step-by-step wizard to create a new volume — select a provider, configure name, size, region, and lifecycle settings before reviewing the cost summary
