Vercel Removes Time Limits on Skew Protection Max Age Configuration
Executive Summary
Vercel has updated its Skew Protection feature, removing the previous time-based limits for Pro and Enterprise customers. Users can now configure the feature's "max age" to persist for the entire lifetime of their deployments. The only constraint on this duration is the project's overall Deployment Retention policy, providing significantly more flexibility and control over deployment configurations.
Key Takeaways
* The Skew Protection "max age" can now be set to any duration up to the project's Deployment Retention policy limit.
* The previous 12-hour maximum limit for Pro plan users has been removed.
* The previous 7-day maximum limit for Enterprise plan users has been removed.
* This update is now available for configuration within project settings.
Strategic Importance
This change enhances Vercel's platform by offering greater configuration persistence and stability, catering to enterprise clients and developers with long-running deployments who were previously constrained by arbitrary time limits.
