# Jul 15, 2025 — Akamai Cloud Pulse support

Support for this service has entered open beta.

# Added

## Akamai Cloud Pulse (Beta)

​Akamai​ Cloud Pulse (ACLP) is a comprehensive monitoring solution designed to provide visibility for cloud core services and managed services. A new "Monitor" category of operations has been added to the Linode API, to support ACLP.

> 📘 These operations are in beta
>
> * Access to these operations requires specific participation in their beta program. Talk to your account team about eligibility.
> * Currently, only the Managed Databases (`dbaas`) service is supported for use with ACLP.
