New options +and mechanisms have also been added to control the +amount of memory Cowboy ends up using with both HTTP/1.1 +and HTTP/2. Much of this work was done to address +HTTP/2 CVEs about potential denial of service. + +In addition, many of the experimental features introduced +in previous releases have been marked stable and are now +documented. These include the commands-based Websocket +handler interface; the metrics and tracer stream handlers; +and the ability to change options on a per-stream basis +(for example idle timeouts). + +This is the first Cowboy version that is compatible with +the upcoming Ranch 2.0. Cowboy 2.7 will use Ranch 1.7.1 +by default. + +Cowboy 2.0 requires Erlang/OTP 20 or above and is tested +and supported on Linux, FreeBSD, macOS and Windows. + +A complete +list of changes can be found in the migration guide: +https://ninenines.eu/docs/en/cowboy/2.7/guide/migrating_from_2.6/[Migrating from Cowboy 2.6 to 2.7]. + +I have more free time available for consulting or for +paid open source development at the moment. If you +are interested, drop me an email at mailto:[email protected][[email protected]]. +I have gathered that there's interest in a pure Erlang GRPC +implementation, and there's also QUIC and HTTP/3 that will +be ready soon, for examples of projects I'd be interested in +working on. + +You can donate to this project via +https://salt.bountysource.com/teams/ninenines[BountySource]. +These funds are used to pay for additional servers for +testing. + +As usual, feedback is appreciated, and issues or +questions should be sent via Github tickets.
