Maintenance Report
This section briefly describes the new features, enhancements, and fixes in Autoform DM 10.5.
New Features
Performance Improvements: Autoform DM 10.5 includes a range of performance and robustness improvements in core application functionality. In addition to generally improving performance, these changes enable Autoform DM to reliably scale to meet the demands of larger customers with more complex configurations.
Customers using this new version should see a significant throughput increase for searches and document imports. Performance testing of a Cloud deployment that holds 50 million documents and has 60 key definitions showed a 130% increase in search throughput and a 30% increase in document upload throughput.
In general, these performance increases have been achieved by introducing further efficiencies in how the application operates and by updating document upload to use a faster compression algorithm.
