What's new in 1.1.6.0

Learn about the new and changed functions and features in HCL Link version 1.1.6.0.

New adapter

• Actian Adapter: The Actian adapter provides access to Actian Vector databases. The Actian adapter is used in maps and flows to write rows of data to the specified database, or to fetch rows of data from the specified database.

Update to existing adapters

• Converters: Converters provide support for converting CSV, Avro, Excel, Parquet, and JSON documents into sets of data records in the CSV format supported by the JDBC, Azure SQL and Actian database adapters. This means that the data produced by the converters can be loaded directly into relational databases supported by those three database adapters. Converters are integrated with the Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, Amazon S3 and SFTP adapters and can only be utilized from those adapters. Converter properties appear as regular adapter properties when configuring Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob, Amazon S3 and SFTP actions, cards, and nodes in the Link UI.

Installation

• Added the ability to configure the trace file columns in the config.yaml file.
• Updated Link SSL configuration procedure using command line tool to import certificates in PEM format.

Updates to existing node

• Split node: Enhanced the split node to support a map as a data provider. The map now runs in the 'burst' mode, enabling data splitting.

Packages

• Included the option to define a default flow during package deployment. This default flow will be executed if the flow name is not specified when invoking the flow command server process.
