May 27, 2022 — List groups within a namespace

You can now use the administrative API to list groups within a namespace.

April 11, 2022 — New release

  • Granular namespace permissions
    When creating a namespace you can now define user access and permissions to that namespace using Akamai Control Center group membership. EdgeKV achieves this by tying a namespace to a Control Center access group.

    You can make a namespace available to ANY access group under a contract with EdgeKV entitlement if the namespace is created using groupId=0. Alternatively, you can lock access to a namespace to a single access group when a groupID, such as groupId=1234, is specified. For more information about granular namespace permissions see Manage access to EdgeKV.

  • EdgeKV access token expiration notification
    An Akamai Control Center notification now appears when an access token approaches its expiration date. Some users will also receive the 1 day notification in an email in addition to the notification center. For more information about who can receive these messages and when notifications are sent, refer to the Generate and retrieve EdgeKV access tokens section in the documentation.

  • Increased limits
    We updated the following product limits to expand the supported use cases for EdgeKV and remove earlier constraints. Some of these limits are orders of magnitude higher, so please refer to the EdgeKV guide for a complete list of all the limits.

Jan 11, 2022 — Support for new geoLocations

You can now use the geoLocation parameter to specify the storage location for data when creating a namespace on the production network. This can help optimize performance by storing data where most or all of your users are located. By default, the geoLocation is set to US (United States). The available geoLocations on the production network also include EU (Europe) and JP (Japan). For more information see the Namespace section in the EdgeKV data model documentation.

Nov 30, 2021 — Retry capability included in the helper library

You can also specify the number of retries to attempt in the Constructor.
