Service ownership at scale: new security and observability features
summary
Announces two usable features: scoped deployment secrets and router-level observability. Subgraph keys use a new Apollo key format (AK prefix, versioned ID, 256‑bit secret), created via Rover or the Platform API, scoped to specific subgraphs and variants, compatible with CI/CD (GitHub Actions example), default one‑year expiry, Rover 1.36+ and enterprise plan required. Subgraph Insights surfaces router fetch metrics (P50/P90/P95, heatmaps), error breakdowns, SDL and a contact directive, opt‑in via router flag, retention 1/7/90 days depending on plan.
