Chapter 8. Updates and Enhancements in 7.3.4

8.1. Data Grid Server Upgraded to JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 7.2.5

Data Grid server is upgraded to EAP 7.2.5, which provides performance improvements and includes several CVE fixes to enhance security.

8.2. Spring Boot Version Upgrades

This release of Data Grid upgrades to Spring Boot 2.2.0, which uses Spring 5 dependencies as follows:

  • Spring 5 upgraded to 5.2.0.
  • Spring Session upgraded to 2.2.0.
  • Spring Security upgraded to 5.2.0.

8.3. Expiration from Primary Owners with Clustered Caches

Data Grid expires entries from clustered caches only when the primary owners determines the entries meet the expiration criteria. This change improves performance by reducing duplicate expiration commands.

8.4. Expiration Commands in Cross-Site Replication

When expiring entries, Red Hat Data Grid replicates a command that removes expired entries across clusters. As of this release Red Hat Data Grid no longer replicates this command across sites, which improves performance.

8.5. Red Hat Data Grid CLI Session Expiration

Documentation is added to note the fact that CLI sessions expire after an idle timeout of six minutes. See the Command-Line Interface (CLI) section for more information.
