Inclusive Language
As part of our commitment to more inclusive language, Pantheon recently switched to using blocklist/allowlist, and docs.pantheon.io has renamed its default Git branch to main.

Go Live Enhancements
Categories:
You now always have the capability to provision HTTPS before going live. DNS challenges are now also shown on the dashboard, which were previously only available via Terminus. For more see our Launch Essentials Guide.
Global CDN
Categories:
Global CDN now blocks requests identified as being performed by AspiegelBot (aka PetalBot) when a query string is present. This platform-wide change is intended to guard against resource exhaustion and related site downtime. Going forward these requests will result in a 403 and will not count as site traffic for Pages Served and Visits. For more information see Traffic Limits and Overages.
