Summary

eZuce is pleased to announce the Beta GA Release of sipXcom 18.04.As a beta release, some of these notes may be revised before the actual release.

Dev & QA teams at eZuce have been busy as usual. We put the next generation work on hold to tackle some performance related items for one of our large customers. The biggest change is related to Mongo. MongoDB has been upgraded to version 3.4. This has the advantage of running Mongo’s WiredTiger Storage Engine. This brings with it document level locking vs. the entire collection as in MongoDB version 2.6. Additionally, database sizes will grow and shrink according to what data is stored in the database (vs. just growing forever).

  • Proxy Statistics Manager enhancements to provide additional statistics

  • Make EntityDB cache expiration configurable

Notes
