    This update covers new offerings, features, and functionality changes delivered in December 2024 and January 2025.

    3 Key Highlights 

    • Curated views simplify the Data Control Tower user interface based on permissions. 

    • Job collections in Data Control Tower enable orchestration of complex masking jobs.  

    • SQL Server on Linux is now supported by Continuous Data. 

    Want to learn what else is happening? Join our Quarterly Roadmap Webinar on February 4, 2025 to explore these updates in detail and discover what’s next for Delphix. 

     

    Data Control Tower  

    • Curated Views: Administrators can now tailor the user interface by role, ensuring each user only sees the navigational options they need. This streamlined approach significantly enhances the self-service user experience. 

    • Job Collections: Data Control Tower now supports Job Collections, which groups and executes Continuous Compliance jobs in a user-set order. This feature greatly improves the ease of running complex sets of jobs on VDB refresh.  

    • Engine Storage Capacity Management: Data Control Tower now delivers an engine-centric view of storage usage, showing growth trends over time for dSources, VDBs, Held Space, and other metrics. Additionally, administrators can easily reclaim space by identifying and removing unnecessary dSources and VDBs. 

    • VDB Group Self Refresh: The VDB Group dataset now has the capability to orchestrate a refresh given a timestamp from itself or parent’s timeline.  

    • ServiceNow Spoke: The Delphix integration with ServiceNow has been certified to run with the ServiceNow Xanadu version. 

    Continuous Data 

    • SQL Server Scaling: SQL Server can now conditionally accommodate dSource sizes larger than the current 63TB limit. If the mount volume exceeds the default 90% utilization threshold and the feature flag is enabled, Delphix will automatically expand the volume to 255TB. 

    • SQL Server on Linux: Introduced a new select connector for Continuous Data to support SQL Server on Linux 2017 and 2019 virtualization. This offering complements the existing Continuous Compliance masking capabilities. 

    • Managed Admin Inheritance: To improve flexibility and security, admins can now control whether newly created admins can themselves create more admins. Existing admins can also have this ability removed if needed. Previously, any admin could create new admin accounts, which automatically inherited the same privileges. 

    • IBM Db2: Added support for IBM Db2 v11.5 on the IBM AIX v7.3 operating system. Standardized the dataset’s storage group and container data paths to improve resiliency during ingestion and provisioning operations. 

    • PostgreSQL: Added support for PostgreSQL v17 for the RHEL v9.x operating system. 

    Continuous Compliance 

    • PostgreSQL: Added support for PostgreSQL v15. 

    • IBM Db2: Added support for IBM Db2 v13 on the IBM z/OS operating system 

    • Binary Data Support: On-the-fly jobs moving data from databases to files now support binary data columns.

     Release Cadence and Version Change 

    Delphix has returned to a bimonthly release schedule for Continuous Data, Continuous Compliance, and Data Control Tower starting with the January 2025 releasesThe version naming also follows a new format: YYYY.R.M.P (Year.Release.Maintenance.Patch). For example, the January release will be 2025.1.0.0, and March will be 2025.2.0.0. Hyperscale Compliance will continue with monthly releases but adopt the new naming scheme. 

     

    Data Connector Documentation and Downloads Migration  

    We have moved connector documentation from the Delphix Continuous Data to the Delphix Ecosystem documentation site. This shift will enable us to version our connector documentation independently of engine releases. To match, connector downloads will move within the Delphix Downloads Portal’s Ecosystem section.
