Release Notes 3.1.419

Publication Date: January 21st 2018

The following are the news features, enhancements and fixed issues for Cloud CMS 3.1.419 release.

Cloud CMS API

• Improvements to invalidation logic for page renditions so that less memory is consumed and large sets of page renditions process more efficiently and with a lower memory footprint
• Added ability to deleteAll() page renditions in one single operation (as opposed to iterating over the full set)
• Improvements to indexing for page renditions, allowing for faster lookup and retrieval, quicker invalidation for individual page renditions or groups of page renditions
• Fix so that tree() method uses a resolved branch ID instead of the incoming branch ID, fix so that tree path lookup works properly in all cases where a custom query is involved
• Node service tree() method automatically tries a fallback case when the root node isn't indexed, allowing "path" to be used more intuitively
• Improved logging if license provider fails to load a license
• Added ActiveMQ support
• Improved testing and core support for nested conditions in rules ("and", "or" and others)
• Allow for a "tags" request parameter on API calls to auto-populate related "_tags" on response for any nodes with "f:taggable" feature and related tags, allowing for efficient loading of related tags in a single call
• Upgrade to latest versions of Spring and other third-party dependencies
• Allow for properties file configuration of refresh token and access token validity periods
• Improvements to refresh token invalidation handling on the server-side including persisted "last_used" timestamp to prevent cluster-wide race condition that can arise in certain situations
• Added ScriptNode addFeature() and removeNode() methods
• Fix to Application import for cases where application is of type "Trusted" and doesn't have a required "host" field set

Cloud CMS Application Server

• Added logger service for global management of logging with log level and output file customization
• Added an "excludeAll" option to WCM page caching to allow for all request parameters to be ignored (instead of having to specify one at a time)
• Support for loading multiple dynamic configuration documents in different scopes (platform, project, user platform and user project)
• Dynamic config loading allows for explicit "invalidate" flag to force config stores to reload on the request (as opposed to waiting for SQS queue to catch up)
• Cluster support for all versions of Node up to 9.3.x (and beyond)
• Removed "multiple" cluster mode and added "sticky-cluster" as an option for continued support of Socket.io applications
• Added support for STOMP protocol (supporting many message queues including ActiveMQ, RabbitMQ and others)
• Support for path normalization within config service block loading

Cloud CMS Java Driver

• Improvements to how runtime settings can be provided (via gitana.properties as well as runtime System properties)
• Added support for "automatic reattempts" mode wherein streams are cached temporarily and automatically reused on reattempt if a 401 expired token is received - this allows for seamless, never fail usage of the driver
• Updated README with good information about how to set up different modes and system properties
• Additional tests to further stress multi-threaded access token and refresh token invalidation with race condition resolution
