We're excited to announce a major upgrade to how you manage storage for your Cloud Servers. You can now resize, attach, and detach storage volumes on a running Cloud Server without requiring a server reboot or any service interruption.

This enhancement means you can instantly adapt to scaling demands by expanding existing volumes or attaching new ones, all while your applications remain fully operational.

This new storage flexibility perfectly complements the existing capability to hot-resize CPU and memory. Now, you have complete dynamic control over your running servers, letting you instantly adapt all server resources to scaling demands and changing workloads.

We have introduced API Tokens as a new, more secure way to authenticate with the UpCloud API.

API Tokens allow you to generate secure credentials that can be easily managed without sharing your account password. With token-based access, you can:

• Improve security by creating tokens that can be easily revoked or automatically expire.
• Simplify automation by using tokens in scripts, integrations, and third-party tools.
• Maintain control by viewing and managing all active tokens directly in the Hub.

You can now generate, view, and revoke tokens conveniently in the UpCloud Control Panel, giving you full visibility and control over your API access. This makes it easier to follow best practices for security and access management.
