Community feedback has major impact on new enhancements in latest version of Diffusion

DiffusionData, the pioneer and leader in real-time data streaming and messaging solutions, today announced the release of Diffusion 6.11. The latest developer-centric enhancements to the framework aim to speed and simplify development, reduce operational costs, and ensure reliable and efficient delivery of real-time data.

Grethe Brown, CEO of DiffusionData, said: “Many of the enhancements we’ve introduced in 6.11 have been driven by an ongoing dialogue with our Diffusion community. It’s important for us to understand the evolving requirements of our clients and address those when introducing improvements to our framework. The enhancements reflect some of the daily challenges faced by developers and are intended to improve operational productivity. The feedback from our amazing customers continues to fuel our innovations in real-time data.”

Enhancements in Diffusion 6.11 include:

Major Improvement in Distributed Update Performance
In previous releases the performance of updates in a clustered environment was significantly slower than that of a single server. With this release, asynchronous operations are applied to bring cluster performance comparable to a single server.

Usage Monitor
In 6.11, a new usage monitoring feature has been introduced. This provides customers with the ability to collect certain usage statistics in files that can then be sent to DiffusionData periodically so that their usage of the framework can be assessed. This allows DiffusionData to have a far better view on how Diffusion is being used and provide customers with feedback on their usage to improve the overall technology experience.

Other enhancements in 6.11 include:

  • Cluster-aware Session Event Listener: a new API has been added to replace the previous session properties listener. This brings the ability to listen for events related to sessions across a cluster of servers, as well as new filtering capabilities.
  • Topic View Scalar Path Mapping Extension: an enhancement to allow topic views to include parent paths when creating views of the topic tree.
  • New ‘Environment’ Session Property: a new fixed session property has been added to provide additional information about connecting clients, and enable more powerful filtering of sessions.
  • New ‘Matches’ Comparison for Session Filtering: session filters can now make use of regular expressions for matching sessions.
  • Ability to Turn Delta Compression Off for Update Streams: users can now suppress delta generation in update streams. Disabling delta compression can reduce the CPU workload at the client at the cost of increased bandwidth.
  • Fetching Topic Sizes: it is now possible to fetch the sizes of topics without transferring the topic payload. Sizes are also displayed in the Diffusion Management Console.
  • Diffusion Management Console Improvements: the Diffusion Management Console has had several improvements. These include a new intuitive way to define and manage topic views, and a new structural browser for JSON values.

DiffusionData, the pioneer and leader in real-time data streaming, today announced a new partnership with Technaura, a Germany-based IT consultancy specializing in the provision of real-time data solutions and services. The two companies have combined offerings to provide markets such as Financial Services, IoT, Telco and Healthcare with reliable and secure real-time data distribution at Internet scale.
DiffusionData’s flagship product, Diffusion, is used by companies worldwide in sectors such as financial services, eGaming, retail, travel and transportation, health, defence and digital media. The framework is purpose-built to simplify and speed data-driven, real-time application development, reduce operational costs, and economically deliver hyper-personalised data.
Technaura specializes in providing scalable, secure, and real-time data services that empower businesses to thrive in the digital age. Solutions it provides include Big Data processing, high volume data streams, consolidating scattered data flows, reliable data queues to record incoming data, scalable microservices and analytics. In addition, the company has a major focus on modernizing legacy systems and optimizing Apache Kafka environments. Its services cover all aspects of implementing solutions for big data and stream processing and the migration to new microservice-based solutions on-prem or in the cloud. Its team of experts combine deep technical expertise with a customer-centric approach to deliver innovative solutions that drive growth and unlock the full potential of data.
As a verified Gold Technology Kafka Partner, Diffusion has been developed to meet the evolving requirements of the Kafka community. In Kafka environments, data streams require transformation and enrichment for optimized and often hyper-personalized, data delivery to potentially millions of applications.

By using Diffusion, architects gain access to a low-code framework which accelerates application development and brings solutions to market faster.
Grethe Brown, CEO of DiffusionData, said: “Event data is only useful if you can capture, analyse, and act on it quickly. Failure to handle data in real-time hinders companies from maximising the potential of their data assets. Our partnership with Technaura will accelerate the application of the unique capabilities of Diffusion in support of digital transformation initiatives in many industries.”
Technaura CEO, Krishna Prasad stated: “Harnessing the synergy between our cutting-edge technology and DiffusionData’s robust data acumen, we are thrilled to announce our strategic partnership. This collaboration is set to redefine the landscape of data solutions. By merging our technological expertise with their profound understanding of data dynamics, we aim to foster an era of innovation and enhanced decision-making.
