Application users are now generally available in Aiven
Application users are a special type of user that super admin can create to use for programmatic access to Aiven through the API, Terraform, Kubernetes, or other applications. They make it easier to audit and manage access to your Aiven resources for applications.
These users are centrally managed by organization super admin, who now have full visibility into how their organization’s resources are programmatically accessed on the Aiven platform. The application user tokens also add another level of security. Super admin can restrict users from creating personal tokens, ensuring that only approved applications access the Aiven API with application user tokens. This also makes it easier for super admin to regularly rotate tokens according to your organization’s security policies.
Find out more about using application users to securely manage access to the Aiven platform in the documentation.

New Aiven services to be distributed in multiple DNS subdomains
From the week starting on 15 April, new services created on the Aiven platform will be given service hostnames in randomly assigned third-level DNS domains (a.aivencloud.com - l.aivencloud.com). This will balance load across DNS zones and improve service scalability.
Users of the Aiven API should not place any naming constraints when validating the fully qualified domain name returned by the API because the subdomain scheme or the aivencloud.com domain name itself may change in the future.
For reference, preview Default service hostname.
