Welcome to the Romana Blog
Romana v2.0 Available Today
Today, we are happy to release Romana v2.0 for general availability. It includes important architectural advances that increase deployment flexibility and simplify operations. Romana v2.0 was available in a preview release for over three months and has gone through extensive testing. During that time, it has proven to be stable and scalable for production deployments on hundreds of nodes in EC2, as well as in datacenters with complex multi-network topologies.

Romana v0.9 Now Available
Today we released v0.9 of Romana and we’re getting closer to the first production release later this summer. Since our last update a few weeks ago, we have gotten a lot of great input from users looking to deploy Romana in large datacenters environments that include OpenStack, Kubernetes, Mesos and bare metal servers. Others are looking to deploy Romana in the public cloud and across IaaS providers. What they all want is a way to apply network and security policy uniformly across all their disparate infrastructure.
