RDS and Aurora Adoption, Helm Chart Add-ons, Deepseek-R1, and Path-based Routing
To kick off the new year, we've added support for some highly-requested features, like allowing users to bring their pre-existing datastores under Porter's management, and installing any helm chart available on public repositories.
Adopting RDS and Aurora
You can now bring an existing RDS or Aurora datastore under Porter management. All controls implemented by Porter’s one-click compliance feature would then apply to the now Porter-managed RDS instance.
Let us know if you’d like us to adopt your database (Porter doesn’t charge for managing data stores)!
Helm Chart Add-ons
Under the Add-ons tab, users can now install any helm chart available on public repositories.
Inference Tab Update
All Hugging Face models that run on vLLM are now supported, including DeepSeek-R1.
Resource Sliders Upgrade
We’ve improved the Resources tab - sliders now show much more accurate maximum allocatable resource values and provide some details on compute overhead.
Path-based Routing
Porter.yaml now allows for path-based routing within a service, so specific URL paths can route to specified container ports. Check out the docs here.
