Wow - what a month of Aug it has been! We made some big strides of progress on our vision of providing a radically simpler way to Develop, Deploy, and Debug _portable_ cloud applications.

## BYOC Digital Ocean in Preview
25-

BYOC Digital Ocean in Preview! From the very beginning, it has been part of Defang’s vision to not only provide a simpler way to Develop, Deploy, and Debug your cloud applications, but to be able to do so in a portable way. As developers, we all value the flexibility of knowing our application can be deployed to our chosen cloud, even if that choice changes over time for a given application. Defang has already provided that choice since the beginning between the Defang Playground and BYOC with AWS. Today, we take an even bigger step in providing that choice with the announcement of the Preview of BYOC with Digital Ocean!

## Ask Defang

For now the Preview will only allow deploying services, no managed storage like Redis or Postgres. We are working on adding more features and will keep you updated on our progress.
26+
We've just rolled out an initial version of Ask Defang, our AI-driven documentation assistant that can help you navigate the Defang docs and get deploying faster. It's deployed with Defang and using a combination of embeddings run on a GPU-powered service, Defang managed Redis, and OpenAI APIs.

## Enhanced Platform Symmetry
3331

3432
We've been hard at work improving the symmetry between our Playground and BYOC environments as well as `docker compose up` vs `defang compose up` to provide a more seamless experience. You can now use multiple compose files and in BYOC the CLI will subcribe to events to monitor service health during deployments.

## AI Features and Debugging Improvements
4135

4236
We've been working on several AI-driven enhancements to make your development process even more efficient. We've addressed key issues, such as file generation failures due to parsing errors and invalid compose files. Also, our Debug Assistant is now more robust, handling context size limits better than before.

- **Managed Postgres**: We're working on getting Defang to provision managed Postgres services for you, so you can easily store and query data in your applications.
67+
- **Digital Ocean BYOC**: We're working on adding Digital Ocean BYOC to give you even more choice over where you deploy your applications.
