Database technology used in this release:
IBM API Connect relies on SQL and no-SQL database technology to provide persistent storage of objects required for the function of the product. Database technology requires fast and reliable storage and in the case of a highly available configuration, the database must perform adequately in a clustered configuration.
GlusterFS: Testing of IBM API Connect when using GlusterFS has shown that GlusterFS does not provide the speed or reliability for any of the database technologies used in IBM API Connect and thus should not be considered for use as the clustered storage facility with this product.
AWS EBS: IBM API Connect deployed on Kubernetes in EC2 instances on AWS should make use of the AWS EBS storage solution with GP2 or IO1 type.
We advise all users of prior version of API Connect v2018.x to install this update to take advantage of the fixes.
For more information about this release, see API Connect IBM Documentation: What's new in this release.
