Column descriptions are typically populated directly by the ETL Scanners and by the COBOL Scanner.

New in this release

General

• DEV-39177 Include the calling system of a connection object in automapping events

• DEV-39145 Allow configuring ZipFileDecompresser.maxNumberOfEntries with a configuration property for Flow Server

• DEV-39346 Add Direction column in Lineage listing

• DEV-37537 Improve performance of attribute filter keys by disregarding permissions and revisions. Important Additional Information: Attribute keys are considered as part of database schema, they don't contain sensitive values. Attribute filter keys in Viewer search may contain attribute keys from assets which are unavailable to the current user or in the selected revision.

• DEV-38428 Simplify evaluation of the search query in search API. Important Additional Information: The full text index is rebuilt automatically on the first Flow Server start after the upgrade. The full text search is unavailable during the rebuilding and may throw an error documented at Neo4j: The Full-Text Search Index Is Populating

• DEV-39344 Improve performance of first tree loading

• DEV-34279 Use less memory when importing dump

• DEV-33854 Prefer user local bash over global bash, if available. Important Additional Information: The shell scripts will use #!/usr/bin/env bash to determine the correct shell version to use.

• DEV-39230 Ignore MacOS system files in manual inputs, see API Metadata Input for more details.

• DEV-37326 Ingestion from Git. Important Additional Information: Manta can now download files directly from Git. See Manta Flow Agent Configuration for Extraction for more details.

• DEV-38003 Allow sorting nodes in Repository Tree alphabetically

• DEV-39479 Search in repository tree

COBOL

• DEV-39281 Propagate DDs defined in JCL into EXECuted PROCedures. Important Additional Information: Dataflow nodes parent structure fixes:

  • Added missing "JCL Execution" parent node to all "JCL Procedure" nodes representing from which they were called (between it and its current parent "JCL Job" or another "JCL Procedure"). As those nodes are used as parents for all "Cobol Program" nodes when started by PROCedure, this produces different repository hierarchy structure compared to prior versions. Fixes mixed-up lineage when the same PROCedure is called multiple times from one JCL.

  • Fixed parent structure of "JCL Defined dataset" nodes according to their definition location (even when only part is redefined) instead of final place where they are used (typically from PROCedure to JOB). Fixes mixed-up lineage on "JCL Defined dataset" node when the same PROCedure is called multiple times with different defined DDs.

• DEV-38866 Add support for call of IKJEFT01, IKJEFT1A, IKJEFT1B by definition of SYSTSIN

• DEV-38903 Stop using Regular API. Important Additional Information: This issue decommissions an old inferior way of scanning the Power BI Azure server. If your Power BI Azure validations have been successful lately (or are successful now), then you're already using the newest Power BI Azure scan type and you safely ignore this change. If your Power BI Azure validations have been failing recently with the message about the regular API being set up correctly while the Scanner API is not, thenfollow the guide in Power BI Azure Setup to set up the Scanner API access rights. Once you do that, the validation should succeed and the resulting Power BI lineage will improve significantly.

Data Lineage, Done Right.

Manta is the automated approach to visualize, optimize, and modernize how data moves through your organization. With Manta’s newest product release, customers have the flexibility to take advantage of best-in-class code-level lineage in a cloud environment. We have innovated to meet evolving customer needs — from on-prem and cloud options and intuitive automation to enhanced customization and greater value for technical and business users.

Release 42 includes:

• A simpler user experience.

• Enhanced automated processes and intelligence capabilities for better workflows and prescriptive capabilities.

• More intuitive options to meet customers where they are.

What’s New in R42?

Auto mapping and Manta Intelligence

Manta is empowering you better than ever before with intuitive automation. With the introduction of automapping, Manta gives customers an end-to-end view of their environments faster. Automapping is a new kind of Manta intelligence that leverages metadata to stitch the lineage between interdependent systems on the fly. Combined with deduced lineage, you’ll be able to reveal interactions between systems for a more complete lineage picture without needing to scan every source.

Application View, Targeted Scanning, and New Scanners

Our new "targeted" scans offer a more flexible approach to repository management, allowing customers to selectively update their connections without the need for comprehensive scans. Other notable updates include a system-level aggregated lineage perspective ("Application Lineage"), a new scanner for Databricks UC to better support the Databricks environment and capabilities, and object-level filtering for Oracle connections. All of this works together to combat shadow data by illuminating orphan tables and bridges the gap between technical and business users, ensuring alignment on what systems are in a repository and how they interact.

Targeted Scanning: Targeted scanning
Databricks: Databricks Scanner Guide

OpenManta

OpenManta Designer provides a simple graphical user interface (GUI) for users to build lineage to augment Manta's out-of-the-box scanners. To reduce the barrier to entry for end-to-end lineage, OpenManta Designer allows users to integrate custom assets faster and more effectively. OpenManta Designer also creates manual data lineage using a drag-and-drop interface and/or a spreadsheet, allowing users to draw connections between related items.

Special notes

• Release 42 requires, at a minimum, Java release 17. Java release 21 is also supported by Manta Flow, with the exception of sites that are using the Snowflake Scanner, which only works with Java 17.

• See DEV-35938 below in the “New in this Release”, Administration section. Be aware that there could be issues with some configuration entries.

Text identified with the words “Important additional information“ provides extra clarity and/or describes potential compatibility issues.

New in this Release

General

• DEV-35286 Introduce consolidated product configuration. Important Additional Information: On premise is configured from single central location. It is no longer needed to adjust multiple configuration files located in different directories.
