As you may have guessed from the maintenance window scheduled for Commercial (GA) accounts on Thursday 2/27/25, TrackVia version 24.0 contains a major update to the system.
While the majority of this version is backend-facing only, it is a foundational release for future improvements, and users will see some improvements to the baseline performance of the system, so let's hop into the details:
Over the past six months, the Operations, API, and Security teams at TrackVia have been hard at work migrating our core databases from MySQL 5.7 to MySQL 8.0. This was a massive undertaking that allows for TrackVia to grow and scale with your businesses into the future. Upgrading from MySQL 5.7 to MySQL 8 brings significant benefits, enhancing performance, security, and usability of the system.
Specifically, with this release, we are seeing:
- Improved loading times for large tables. In some scenarios, 10x faster than the previous system with tables containing +1M rows.
- Improved application script execution time.
- Decrease in table-lock and API contention errors, thanks to better support for atomic operations and transactional data.
- Reduced loading time for Dashboards and Forms.
But, as mentioned this is just the backend foundation for many more improvements to come, including improved indexing for column indexing in the Table Builder and laser-fast sandbox creation and promotion. Overall, the improvements we've made in this release ensure a robust, future-ready foundation for scaling your applications efficiently, but the best is yet to come, so stay tuned.
