The VIP Platform Changelog includes updates made to the functionality and behavior of the platform's tooling (i.e. VIP Dashboard, VIP-CLI), VIP MU plugins, VIP File System, caching layers, and other underlying architecture and software.

Added a constant, WPCOM_VIP_SITE_ADMIN_ONLY_MAINTENANCE, that can be used to put a site into maintenance mode without impacting the front-end. The idea being to prevent database writes(e.g.: post creation) in wp-admin from happening at an inopportune time during periods of maintenance while still allowing the site to operate normally.
21:55:45 GMT+0000
We’ve implemented changes to our Admin Notices plugin that allows for more flexibility when defining the conditions for whether a notice should be displayed or not.

This change ensures the index is correctly initialized in ElasticSearch before operations that could create a default index. Default index doesn’t have the correct mapping set and therefore could potentially cause search issues.
