The query functionality in particular is powerful and allows for very complex queries.

Improved Adapters

Persistent State Adapter: External Persistent State Attributes

You can mark attributes of a persistent state class as external by applying stereotype <<External>>. This can speed-up persistent state performance if you have huge data objects (like e.g. big blobs, IDocs or PDFs) that are only used in few transitions.

External persistent data is handled differently compared to the internal data:

• External persistent data will be stored separately. You can even store external data to a different database (see Persistent State Components).
• External persistent data will only be loaded on demand.
• External persistent data will only be saved if loaded before.

For more information, refer to Persistent State Classes and Getting Copies of Persistent State Objects.

xUML RUNTIME API

As of BRIDGE 7.5.0, the xUML Runtime provides a REST interface to the controller service of each xUML service. Initially, you can access persistent state resources via this API, but we plan to add more service related resources.

...

• Extended BRIDGE API: delete service, export xUML service, deploy service, get/put global setting variables, get/delete service sessions, kill service, managing users and groups (see BRIDGE API)
• REST, HTTP and SOAP services support IPv6
• REST Adapter supports media type parameters
• SQL Adapter requests can be cancelled (see  BRIDGE Status Tab )

• Improved BPMN root state machine with more complex error and retry handling (see The Model Implementing the BPMN Process and BPMN Default Error Handling)

  

• File System Adapter and Flat File Adapter allow for setting a static root path together with a dynamic file name (see File System Components)
• Analyzer allows to start a test suite via command line (see Running Regression Tests From Command Line )
• Possibility to implement a shutdown activity for Node.js and Java services (see Developing Node.js Services and Java Services Reference Guide)
• Improved deployment view on the BRIDGE: service details displayed (see Deployment of xUML Services)External persistence for selected properties of persistent state classes (see Persistent State Classes)
• and many, many more ...
