LDW 2.4.14: Mostly Server
The Server is the centerpiece of this release: it has received a new feature (and now supports PlainID authorization mechanism) and quite a lot of improvements and bugfixes. Most notably, we have updated the embedded JDK to version 11.0.12+7. Of the other improvements, two bring significant changes. First, cleanup of query logs has been singled out into a separate job, so now there are two separate jobs for cleaning finished query logs and cleaning finished job logs instead of a single job for cleaning finished job and query logs. And second, LDAP users and groups are now cached. This means that new users will be able to log in to Data Virtuality without refreshing the cache, but to query new users and roles, the cache has to be refreshed via the new SYSADMIN.refreshLdapUserCache procedure (it is also automatically refreshed on the first query of SYSADMIN.Users and SYSADMIN.Roles after server restart).
Another breaking change concerns the Exporter: we have fixed the bug causing git push job export to fail, and as part of the solution, the SYSADMIN.gitIntegrationActivatePushJob procedure has been updated with a new "id" out parameter.
As for the Studio, it has got one improvement and one bugfix. From now on, it will display a warning for any permission change, and the column level data lineage will show correct result when used on a column from query results on the SQL Editor tab.
Last but not least, several connectors got an upgrade to the next API versions: Facebook, Instagram, and BL.INK.
Here are all issues in this release:

From now on LDAP users and groups are cached on Data Virtuality Server. New users would be able to log in to Data Virtuality without refreshing the cache. However, in order to be able to query new users and roles, the cache has to be refreshed via SYSADMIN.refreshLdapUserCache procedure. The cache is also automatically refreshed on the first query of SYSADMIN.Users and SYSADMIN.Roles after restart - DVCORE-7541 (Bug): SELECT of LONG value increased to more than maximum LONG value returns incorrect value
- DVCORE-7493 (Bug): Replication procedures throw incorrect and inconsistent error messages when the target data source does not exist
