EDA 26.4

It feels like releasing 25.12 was just a hop, skip, and jump ago 😓, but we are back again with another major EDA release - the EDA product team are pleased to announce the release of EDA 26.4.1 🚀🚀🚀!

Being the first major release of 2026, and us having a longer six month development cycle, this release is jam-packed with shiny new capabilities for you to try. PLMs have been feverishly PRD (and CRD) writing, devs have been unremittingly coding, and testers have been aptly automating (yep I found my thesaurus). By the numbers we're introducing 182 new generally available features into EDA, alongside an additional 40 beta features, and 25 alpha features.

This vast array of new features demands a deep dive, which we absolutely plan to provide in the coming weeks. For now, let's have a cursory look at what this release packs.

EDA 25.4

It is that time again 🥳 The EDA product team are pleased to announce the release of EDA 25.4.1 🚀

The team have been hard at work; introducing our first non-SR Linux OS, a boatload of QoL UI improvements (bulk edits!), and a number of app extensions to cover additional use cases.

To some numbers! In this release we delivered 152 GA features, 14 alpha features, and 90 beta features (I'll come back to this later).

The beginning of an era EDA

Today marks a huge milestone. You may have heard us talking about "EDA" at several public events - now you get to experience it for yourself.

It was a mere 24 months ago that we started the initial design for a next generation controller, which eventually adopted the codename EDA - Event Driven Automation.

Our goals were lofty; intents without inflexibility, simplified consumption of streaming telemetry, multi vendor, multi domain, CI/CD, pipelines, all encompassing revision control, all built for the modern tooling era.

Did we succeed? You get to be the judge!
