Changes to Expiring API Keys

Harikrishna Menon August 25, 2016 Aug 25, 2016 08/25/16

In June, we published a blog post announcing Expiring API Keys. We received a lot of great feedback from the community about it. In retrospect, we did not do a great job explaining the motivation and reasoning for this security measure to the community. This post goes into more detail about why we introduced Expiring API Keys, the immediate ...

Switching from WCF OData to Web API

Maarten Balliauw February 16, 2016 Feb 16, 2016 02/16/16

One of the less visible changes since we released NuGet 3.0 is that NuGet uses a new server "API v3". This new API is designed around high availability for critical scenarios such as package restore and installing packages. API v3 will be the way forward for NuGet while keeping "API v2" around for older NuGet clients. We will be making a big ...

Why did my package download count suddenly go up

Maarten Balliauw September 30, 2015 Sep 30, 2015 09/30/15

Last week, we released our Revised Download Counts and Package Statistics that are now based on the raw logs of our CDN. For this to become reality, we had to also import data from our old statistics data warehouse into the new system. As it turns out, we overlooked something very important: in the old system (and by importing data, also in ...

Meet the new NuGet status page

Maarten Balliauw September 28, 2015 Sep 28, 2015 09/28/15

On the server side we are working on boosting performance, scalability and reliability. We were also in need of a new status page to better communicate the status of the service. Without further ado: meet the new status.nuget.org! We're happy with this new incarnation of our status page. It not only shows whether individual services are up ...

Revised Download Counts and Package Statistics

Maarten Balliauw September 24, 2015 Sep 24, 2015 09/24/15

In the last few months we have been hard at work on the NuGet.org backend. One of the things we've done is switch to a new CDN. This work is all about reinforcing the foundations of nuget.org so we provide a better service experience and be in a position to build new features reliably. As a result we're happy to announce package statistics are...

NuGet.org server status

Yishai Galatzer June 8, 2015 Jun 8, 2015 06/8/15

For the last few weeks we have experienced a few hours of downtime a few times a week. The NuGet community was very engaged in sharing the issues both on Twitter, support@nuget.org, personal emails, and GitHub. We thank you for that and appreciate your patience. We realize NuGet.org is a center to many of the day to day activities of a .NET ...

A New Package Statistics Warehouse

Jeff Handley August 20, 2014 Aug 20, 2014 08/20/14

The Warehouse is Dead, Long Live the Warehouse! Back in June, we blogged that our package statistics were full of lies. We made a fix and expected reports to become correct on June 26th. When June 26th came and went though, we discovered that the numbers were still questionable. Since then, we've identified a few other issues leading to ...

The NuGet.org Architecture

Jeff Handley July 11, 2014 Jul 11, 2014 07/11/14

As part of Building NuGet 3.x, we have been working on a significant re-architecture of NuGet.org. Progress has been steady and we are starting to see a return on investment. In this post, we'll compare the legacy architecture to where we'll be in the near future. Legacy Architecture One of the goals when the NuGet Gallery project was ...

Jeff Handley June 26, 2014 Jun 26, 2014 06/26/14

We've recently found ourselves answering the same question repeatedly: How do you monitor nuget.org? If you too are interested, here are the details. Monitoring Approaches We have two approaches for monitoring the gallery: External Monitoring For our external monitoring, we use Pingdom. You can see our public Pingdom status page at ...
