New Features and Improvements Improvements 

WhereScape presents RED 10.3 a new version of RED with new features that ease RED 10 migrations and continue to enhance scheduling capabilities. The features implemented in this version are mainly focused on enabling RED 10 migration pathways for traditional RED customers on SQL Server, Oracle and Teradata inbuilt targets.

Target License Improvements

RED 10 now accepts existing Oracle and Teradata licenses for use on RED 10 PostgreSQL metadata.

...

Note: Enablement packs to support these traditional RED target types in RED 10 will soon follow. 

Other Improvements

This release also includes over 20 customer improvements and fixes, please refer to the Detailed Changes section for the full list, but here are a few of note:

Scheduler

The RED metadata connection resilience of the WhereScape Job Plugin for Azkaban has been improved, allowing automatic recovery from intermittent connectivity issues. This feature ensures jobs are resumed as required and the RED job metadata is kept up to date with the Azkaban job run status. 

The Azkaban Web Server's connection to the RED metadata has also undergone connection resilience improvements allowing recovery from intermittent RED metadata connectivity issues.

Application Deployment

Simplified application deployment DML and DDL logging. The feature of logging DML and DDL to a file during deployment was conditional on another setting that disabled deployment changes on the target warehouse, now the logging will be generated regardless of other settings.

Deployment of Custom Object Sub-Types from 3D to RED requires the equivalent Object Sub-Types to exist in RED for successful deployment and code generation automation, the error messaging has been improved to list all Object Sub-Types which do not have a match in RED so that the synchronization between the configurations can more easily be resolved by the user. 

Advanced Connect

Improved save workflow for RED Profiles so that passwords are not lost inadvertently when forgetting to tick the save passwords checkbox. Also f ixed an issue where the last logged in profile was not remembered at the RED Login Screen.
