Logging has been extended to generate a log output every 1000th element, so that it’s easier to observe whether the schedule is still active, i.e. for long-running schedules and/or projects with many elements.

16. Version 3.9.3 - 22.06.2021

Fixed issues

ID Description

Adapted project build to internal documentation process.

24. Version 3.8.0 - 28.04.2021

New features

ID Description

CAAS-1650

Improved the performance of the modules default schedules. From now on the schedules do not generate and process the JSON for elements which are already up to date in the CaaS.

25. Version 3.7.0 - 23.04.2021

Highlights

This version significantly improves the speed of the module’s standard schedules. The data synchronization between FirstSpirit and the CaaS platform which is run during a schedule now only transmits documents that are not available in the latest version in CaaS.

This improvement can shorten the duration of a schedule by a huge amount, provided that a data reconciliation has already taken place beforehand (thus most of the project data being already present in the CaaS). In some projects the schedules were 60 times faster. The speed of a schedule used for initial data population of the CaaS remains unchanged and is comparable to previous module versions.

New features

ID Description

CAAS-1610

The standard schedules of the module now use an improved approach to reconcile data between FirstSpirit and CaaS.

33. Version 3.5.0 - 11.03.2021

Highlights

With CAAS-1491, the module checks whether the tenant database in the CaaS platform already exists on start of the CaasConnectService. If not, it is created. In case of an error during database creation, the CaasConnectService start aborts and an error message is written to the FirstSpirit server log.

New features

ID Description

CAAS-1491

The tenant database in the CaaS platform is now created already when the CaasConnectService is started.

Fixed a bug that caused WebSocket connections of change streams to occasionally get closed.

43. Version 3.4.4 - 09.02.2021

Fixed issues

ID Description

ZT-131

During the automatic push of datasets, errors occurred if the dataset did not yet have a GID. This can occur in very old FirstSpirit projects, even after migration to a current FirstSpirit version. As of FirstSpirit 2021-02, this behavior has been corrected. A fallback is still supported for older versions. This fallback triggers WARN logging, as this has a negative impact on performance. We therefore strongly recommend updating to FirstSpirit 2021-02.

44. Version 3.4.1 - 05.02.2021

Fixed issues

ID Description

CAAS-1521

Due to a merge conflict, versions 3.4.0 and 3.3.2 to 3.3.4 overlapped and are incorrectly mapped in the release notes. This has now been corrected.

Fixed issues

ID Description

CAAS-1369

When using an S3-compatible storage for media binary data without a CloudFront configuration the generated links to media files now use a virtual hosted-style format. Among other things this format imposes additional restrictions on the bucket name. Please see chapter Media deployment of the documentation for more information.

CAAS-1460

Removed invalidations for skipped media items

56. Version 3.1.0 - 05.10.2020

Update Notice

This release changes the behaviour of deployments to the CaaS platform. Whereas before no content was sent at all when the FirstSpirit project contained any errors, now the module sends all valid items and skips the failed ones. For schedules, you will get an error nonetheless, but your deployment will also be performed partly.

New features

ID Description
