This update covers new offerings, features, and functionality changes that were delivered in February. 

Three Key Highlights

• Continuous Compliance now supports masking files in S3 object storage.

• Automated Sensitive Data Discovery now extends to JSON and delimited files.

• There is now a quick start template for masking Snowflake data.
  
  

Continuous Compliance

• Automated Sensitive Data Discovery for JSON and Delimited Files: Automated Sensitive Data Discovery was introduced last year, bringing a much more complete set of sensitive data identification to structured data. This has now been expanded to operate against JSON and delimited files.

• File Masking in S3 Buckets: Increasingly, organizations store sensitive application data in object storage buckets. To ensure these buckets can be masked alongside other application data, connecting directly to S3 buckets and masking supported file types is now available. 

• User Experience: The Environments Add and Edit Ruleset pages have been updated.
  
  

Continuous Data

• Customizable Local Listeners for Oracle MT RAC VDBs: Database administrators must configure database listener parameters for multiple reasons, notably security, performance optimization, and resource management. We now support customizing local listeners when provisioning a VDB in an Oracle RAC environment. In addition, this allows you to provision a VPDB into a new VCDB in a non-RAC or RAC environment, update local listeners for a VDB in a RAC environment, and update local listeners for a VCDB in a non-RAC or RAC environment.

• Support Delphix Operations for Oracle RAC VDBs/VPDBs During Downtime: Oracle RAC is used for production databases to ensure their availability 24/7. To comply with business continuity guidelines, we now support the following VDB/VPDB operations when one or more hosts of the Oracle RAC clusters are down: Provisioning, enable/disable, refresh, start/stop, and rollback. This enhancement includes VDBs/VPDBs in VCDBs and Linked CDBs. 

• Staging Push Online DB Mode for SQL Server: We now support database online mode for Staging Push dSources for SQL Server, keeping the source database open for transactions, as needed. Before this enhancement, Staging Push source databases were required to be only in restoring mode. This enhancement is supported for SQL Server deployed on-premises and in the cloud (for self-managed databases and SQL PaaS environments).

• IBM Db2: RHEL v9.2 is now supported for IBM Db2 v11.5, including IBM Db2 v11.5.9.

• MySQL: Added Staging Push support for AWS RDS and AWS RDS Aurora MySQL. Certified Amazon Linux 2 as staging and target host environments.

• Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS): Oracle EBS’s DB Tech Stack on IBM AIX v7.2 is now supported. The EBS App Tier is not supported on IBM AIX v7.2.

• SAP HANA: HANA SPS 06 and SPS 07 are now supported on the SUSE Operating Systems.

• Expanded RedHat Support: RHEL 9.0 and 9.3 are now supported for Oracle 19c. RHEL 9.3 is supported with vFiles.

• Documentation Updates: We have continued to make broad improvements across multiple areas of our documentation, including Couchbase, IBM Db2, MongoDB, and MySQL.
  
  

Compliance Services for Salesforce

• Dynamic Batch Sizing: We now optimize the masking batch size depending on the contents of each to-be-masked payload. This is designed to optimize performance and reduce Salesforce API consumption.

 

Compliance Services for Azure

• Quick-Start Templates: In the fall, we launched the capability to manage metadata as parameters and rapidly deploy masking across thousands of tables in a single Azure Data Factory (ADF) pipeline. To facilitate the fastest deployment for common data sources, we’re releasing parameterized templates for Snowflake and Databricks.
