They now show only that site's own, and node diagnostics answer only on the node itself.Fri, 25 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTCDNEdge NodeSecurityhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-24-ee-deploy-cli/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-24-ee-deploy-cli/ee-cdn-cli publishes a folder of static files to the CDN from the command line, so sites built with Hugo, Eleventy, Jekyll, Publii or by hand can deploy without a framework-specific integration.Thu, 24 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTCLIAddedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-24-planned-gateway-markets-on-the-map/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-24-planned-gateway-markets-on-the-map/The public network map now marks each of the 47 U.S. markets where Evolving Edge will operate gateway nodes, alongside the live node counts.Thu, 24 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTPortalAddedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-23-smaller-changes/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-23-smaller-changes/Two small portal changes, collected.

The edge now sends just the part of a file that was asked for. HTML pages are still always sent whole.Wed, 23 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTCDNFixedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-22-a-node-can-finish-its-own-enrollment/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-22-a-node-can-finish-its-own-enrollment/A node that enrolled successfully kept being rejected by the control plane and enrolled again, every forty seconds, without ever coming online.

It now catches up within a few minutes, and says your node is syncing while it waits.Mon, 14 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTPortalFixedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-11-control-plane-writes-less-often/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-11-control-plane-writes-less-often/The control plane now saves each node's peer-discovery details only when they change, instead of on every heartbeat, cutting its routine database writes about sevenfold. Delivery is unchanged; two rare recovery cases behave slightly differently.Fri, 11 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTCDNChangedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-11-portal-headings-readable-again/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-11-portal-headings-readable-again/A styling conflict made some portal headings near-black on a dark background, most visibly the Content Delivery card title on the Workloads page. All 18 affected elements are fixed, and a test stops the conflict coming back.Fri, 11 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTPortalFixedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-10-ci-deploys-appear-in-portal/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-10-ci-deploys-appear-in-portal/Sites published from CI or the command line served normally but left the portal's Files and Deployments tabs empty, and their traffic was missing from project analytics. New deploys now show up in the portal just as portal deploys do.Thu, 10 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTPortalCLIFixedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-09-docs-and-support-in-portal-nav/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-09-docs-and-support-in-portal-nav/The portal's top bar has a new Resources menu with links to Docs and Support. It opens the guides for whichever view you're in, Node Operator or customer, in a new tab.

The Refer page also links the referral program terms directly.Wed, 09 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTPortalChangedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-06-dashboard-cards-open-their-pages/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-06-dashboard-cards-open-their-pages/The Earnings & Payouts, Local Leaderboard and Performance Index cards on the dashboard were dimmed and marked "Coming soon", though all three features were already live. Each card is now a link to its page.Sun, 06 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTPortalChangedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-operator-referrals/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-operator-referrals/Operators now have a personal referral link and a Refer page in the portal. When someone you refer keeps a verified node online for 60 days, you both earn a bonus. There's no cap on referrals.Sat, 05 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTPortalAddedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-sites-stay-up-when-node-credentials-are-rejected/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-sites-stay-up-when-node-credentials-are-rejected/When the control plane rejected an edge node's credentials, the node kept retrying them, and sites it served returned "domain not configured". Nodes now re-authenticate within seconds, and the visitor who triggers recovery still gets their page.Sat, 05 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTCDNEdge NodeFixedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-static-sites-cache-properly/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-static-sites-cache-properly/Sites served from their own domain were sent with no-cache on every file, so each visit re-downloaded everything. Build assets are now cached for a year, and pages revalidate in a single cheap round trip.Sat, 05 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTCDNChangedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-uptime-reflects-observed-time/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-uptime-reflects-observed-time/When a node's activation date was missing, its uptime was measured against a full 30 days, so a node with two perfect days showed 6.67%. Uptime is now measured against the time we actually observed the node.Sat, 05 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTPortalFixedhttps://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-windows-edge-node-installs-work/https://changelog.evolvingedge.ai/2026-09-05-windows-edge-node-installs-work/The Windows installer failed to download the edge node, and beyond that registered a service that couldn't start while still reporting success. Installing, starting and uninstalling now all work, and failures are reported as failures.Sat, 05 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTEdge NodeFixed
