Published Release Notes

Select values gadget optimization enhancements

The Select values gadget includes several enhancements that help reduce performance issues when a data set is very large. Administrators and developers can now add and remove optimizations for fields directly in Designer Studio. Additionally, Select values gadgets were added to the proposition import shape and history shape in the Strategy rule form.

For more information about Select value gadgets and field optimization, see Optimizing properties in Select values gadget.

New alert for distinct values query

The PEGA0093 alert identifies performance issues when a distinct values query from virtual reports or the getDistinctValuesForProperty API take longer than the threshold. For more information, see PEGA0093: Distinct values query took more than the threshold.

Improved management of batch indexing

You can now cancel and check the status of a batch index process directly from the Search landing page in Dev Studio. The landing page now refreshes automatically every 10 seconds so that you can easily see the most recent status of the batch index process. Additionally, the reindex operation is now 20% faster than in previous versions. These features provide greater visibility into batch indexing and improve your ability to fix issues with a batch indexing process.

For more information about batch indexing, see Rebuilding search indexes from the user interface.

Define a default reporting database

You can now easily define a reporting database for all classes that are assigned to a primary database. You can also assign this reporting database as the default reporting database. This provides support for reporting against Amazon Aurora read replicas. AWS Aurora increases the performance and stability of your database management system.
