Dear customer
This release improves the behaviour of caching and Elasticsearch in a cluster environment. We’ve also tweaked the user menu a bit more and you’ll see an improved Global Message modal. The panel component had some issues that are resolved too.
For detailed information please see the relevant sections.
Best regards,
the edorasware team
Extension of distributed caches in a cluster
Previously, static resource caching in a cluster environment relied on local caches. To address the possibility of change to these resources (e.g a Definition could be changed during a schema upgrade), all caches are now distributed.
Elasticsearch full index replication
The template for the Elasticsearch full index is updated to support replication of the index shards in an Elasticsearch cluster. This means that an Elasticsearch node may fail without losing the index.
Support for XA data sources
The schema management code can now be configured to use its own data source and transaction manager. This allows an XA data source and transaction manager to be used for normal operations, with schema management using a non-XA channel. This change is necessary as for some databases (e.g. Oracle) schema modification is fundamentally incompatible with XA transactions.
For details please refer to the upgrade notes.
Account UI customisation, one client loads faster
We’ve improved the startup time of one client in case the View Engine is enabled or the App Graph is disabled. We also changed the way that one client can be customized per Account. We now allow custom css per Account, which is both more powerful and comes with a performance improvement.
New notification style
The notification messages have a new appearance. The success, error and information messages have a cleaner look. HTML content is not supported in notifications.
