Jul 1, 2025July 2025 (2025-07) highlights for ovh/docs: delivered a comprehensive set of migration-focused documentation and updates, alongside targeted bug fixes that improve reliability and customer success. The team produced 11 new or refreshed guides and content blocks, covering Kubernetes external migrations, landing zone migrations, databases (1AZ→3AZ) migrations, instance migrations between regions, MPR IAM authentication, and additional content enhancements (upload section, media assets, and metadata updates). Updates also included compute-related documentation (horizon resize instance guide date), storage guidance (Block Storage RACI), and cross-functional Terraform getting started guidance, plus an overarching primary feature introduction. Major bug fixes addressed three critical issues: storage indexing bug, delete operation error, and rebase failures due to a missing develop branch. Notable commits exemplify the changes across the repo (e.g., 933445b23aeb..., c3b12e42d048..., c81156e4ac..., 33bf4e825359..., a0d4bbd6d9d4..., 7111cdd0f31d..., 13b17dbac8ad..., e7302f8653cc...), reflecting strong cross-team collaboration and code/documentation hygiene.
