Header sizes at intermediate nodes for JDBC queries cannot be larger than 16K.

Previously, the column names for JDBC data sources were passed as part of a header in a GET request. For very wide datasets, these GET requests often exceeded 16K in size, which represented a security risk.

Release 7.7

What's New

None.

Changes in System Behavior

Disabled Optimizer Service

In the September release, the Optimizer service was introduced, which enabled users to apply advanced physical and logical optimizations for flow and job executions. Recently, an issue was discovered, which has caused us to disable the service temporarily.

  • This issue affected a very small number of users who were using the new feature. Now that the feature is disabled, impacted users should experience impacts only to performance of flow and job executions. Performance should be similar to pre-release of the service.
  • The Optimizer service was disabled through a configuration change that did not require any service interruptions. Users should not experience any loss of functionality or availability due to the work to resolve this issue.
  • The 
    D s item
    itemEngineering team
     is actively working to resolve the issue. Thank you for patience. If you have further questions, please contact
