== October 2025

=== User impersonation: beta

BYOC and Dedicated clusters now support unified authentication and authorization between the Redpanda Cloud UI and Redpanda with xref:security:cloud-authentication.adoc#user-impersonation-beta[user impersonation]. This means you can authenticate to fine-grained access within Redpanda using the same credentials you use to authenticate to Redpanda Cloud.

With user impersonation, the topics users see in the UI are identical to what they can access with the Cloud API or `rpk`, ensuring consistent permissions across all interfaces. This glossterm:beta[] feature provides clear auditing of data plane user actions.

=== Remote MCP: beta

Deploy managed MCP servers directly inside your Redpanda Cloud cluster with xref:ai-agents:mcp/remote/overview.adoc[Remote MCP]. Unlike the Redpanda Cloud MCP Server, Remote MCP servers run within your cluster and can process data streams, generate synthetic data, and publish directly to Redpanda topics.
