We have made significant improvements to the capabilities of the Board Engine, specifically in the areas of memory management, performance optimization, and data on-disk reliability. These enhancements will allow our customers to scale more efficiently and handle larger, more complex applications.
Improved scalability for larger data volumes with fewer resources.
Board Engine is now capable of managing much larger amounts of data thanks to an optimized management where information is kept in memory.
On average, much more resources are available to execute user interactions and requested calculations.
Improved performance for calculations and data transfers.
The new architecture allows for several performance optimizations and improvements in several key areas like Dataflows, Data Readers, Extractions, etc.
Simplified architecture and maintenance.
Only one saving policy and architecture moving forward which is automatically applied when upgrading to Board 14.
Complex backup architectures (save to disk, OnServerClose, etc.) can now be removed, exploiting a simple backup via a Procedure step.
Historical data loading has much less impact on resources usage, reducing the need for data archiving processes.
The InRam Flag is now deprecated.
