projectdoc Toolbox

Improvements heading to data center support.

Today we released version 5.0 of the projectdoc Toolbox. It includes changes from version 5.0.0. This version has been made available on the Atlassian Marketplace.

Preparing the projectdoc Toolbox worked for all integration aspects almost out-of-the-box. The main challenge was to cope with the increased performance requirements under heavy load. Another important amount of work was required to establish the test environment to cope with Atlassians requirements to accept the projectdoc Toolbox for data center on their Marketplace.

Well, finally, it's done! (smile)

Since this is a major release expect many breaking changes. One of the most relevant for your upgrade is the new database structure the projectdoc Toolbox establishes. Since the projectdoc tables did not store any information that cannot derived from the Confluence pages, you simply need to rebuild the table data from scratch. Unfortunately this requires, especially for large installation quite a lot of time. We recommend to check the upgrade process in a test environment on real data.

 

Estimates?

...

Pro projectdoc Dokument ca 0,3 Sekunden. Nicht PD Dokumente sind nicht betroffen.

Beispiele:

1000 Dokumente = 300s = 5 Min

10.000 Dokumente = 3.000s = 50 Min

100.000 Dokumente = 30.000s = 8:20 Stunden



The projectdoc Toolbox is an add-on for Confluence supporting agile software development teams to collaborate on process, project, system, and product documentation. 

Release Notes Overview

New and Noteworthy

Database Tables

We updated the database tables to store projectdoc data. This is required to cope with the increased load on Confluence when run under data center.

The old tables (identified by "PD_" in the table name) will stay untouched and the new structures will be stored in new tables (identified by "PD5_"). Even if the old data will still be available we highly recommend to have access to a current backup of your database.
