Oct 1, 2025Summary for 2025-10: Completed documentation work for MaxScale 25.10.0 release, focusing on three new features: server-side ephemeral certificates, client-side ephemeral certificates, and the ability to run SQL commands during primary/replica role changes. Updated release notes in the mariadb-docs repository and added explicit guidance linking to related documentation to assist developers and operations teams. No major bugs fixed this month; the primary impact was improved release-readiness, clearer customer guidance, and a reduction in potential support queries. Technologies demonstrated include technical writing, release-note governance, version control, and cross-functional collaboration with the documentation and product teams.
