+## April 2026
 
 * [User and group quota reporting](generate-user-group-quota-reports.md) is now generally available (GA)
 
     If you're using individual user and group quotas in Azure NetApp Files to manage capacity on NFS, SMB, and dual-protocol volumes, the user and group quota reporting feature now offers clear visibility into key metrics such as quota limits, used capacity, and percentage utilization for each target user and quota rule. Administrators can generate quota usage reports and modify quota rules directly within the Azure portal for any volume with quota rules, removing the previous dependency on host-based tools and the need to mount the volume for reporting.

+* [Storage with cool access enhancement](cool-access-introduction.md#throughput-for-premium-and-ultra-service-levels) for Premium and Ultra service levels (preview)
+
+    Azure NetApp Files introduces an enhancement to storage with cool access for Premium and Ultra service levels that more precisely aligns throughput with data tiering. When cool access is enabled, maximum throughput is dynamically calculated based on the amount of data tiered to cool access storage, rather than applying a fixed reduction. Hot data retains its configured performance, and throughput is adjusted only when data is tiered to the cool tier. This enhancement delivers more predictable QoS behavior while optimizing performance and cost as data access patterns evolve, without requiring manual tuning or reconfiguration.

+## March 2026
+
+* [Large volumes improvement:](large-volumes-requirements-considerations.md#requirements-and-considerations) removed 30% default limit imposed on large volumes
+
+    Large volumes operational improvement no longer requires a support ticket to increase a large volume past the 30% imposed limit. This allows customer to automate their large volume size increases without waiting for approval and human intervention.

 ## January 2026
 
 * [Application volume group for Oracle](configure-application-volume-oracle-api.md#replication) support for cross-zone and cross-region replication is now generally available (GA)
