August 2026 Summaries

Nullstone’s latest updates add GCP cost reporting through BigQuery billing exports, including support for multiple billing accounts and setup guidance for AWS and GCP, while redesigning environment-variable management so edits, removals, and reversions remain staged in fixed rows until applied. GitOps IaC syncs can now trigger from branch pushes, tags, or releases, and the CLI can invoke AWS Lambda functions with payload handling, invocation-specific logs, error propagation, and safeguards against accidental retries. Cloud Composer is now supported as an application pattern, and `nullstone iac test` provides more accurate numeric comparisons and more detailed structured diffs. Documentation has been reorganized around integrations and expanded for AWS, GCP, and Azure authentication methods. The catalog adds telemetry integrations for Better Stack, Uptrace, and Datadog across AWS and GCP, OpenTelemetry collector support for EKS and managed telemetry for GKE, GPU workload capabilities for GKE, GCP Private Service Connect modules, and simplified ECR image lifecycle policies. Additional changes bring closer parity between EKS and GKE application modules, narrow overly broad GCP database-administration IAM permissions, and add retention and lifecycle controls for database logs and GCS buckets.
