Visual LANSA EPC150070 is here! In this update, weโ€™re excited to bring you a host of new features, enhancements, and critical fixes to optimize your development experience. Major features of this release include replicating the functionalities of the IIS Plugin for IBM HTTP Server and Linux Apache Module, which is advantageous for those looking to publish web services without total dependency on Windows technologies. Letโ€™s dive into the details below.

Versatile IIS Plugin for IBM HTTP Server

In this EPC, weโ€™re extending support to IBM HTTP Server and Linux Apache, offering greater flexibility in both deployment and management. Visual LANSA now provides enhanced URL pattern matching as well as extended request processing for streamlined, complex web service deployments. More configuration options also allow for finer control, increased scalability, and reduced customization efforts of your environment for specialized needsโ€”a real must-have for anyone who wants to streamline their processes.

Customization and Optimization in Apache Module

EPC150070 further develops Apache module customization and optimization. Some new configuration options make tuning your web services easier to achieve optimal performance in various circumstances. Whether you host a high-traffic website or a complex enterprise application, these new options will help you achieve high performance.

Advanced Integration with Apache HTTP Web Server

The update makes all functionalities of the IIS plugin available at the doorstep of the Apache HTTP Web Server for IBM i users. Take advantage of easy URL pattern matching and request processing, which is provided together with even more advanced IASP setup support. These extensions will ensure your IBM i environment operates smoothly, even with an increased workload.

Smarter Runtime Tracing

EPC150070 includes refined tracing capabilities in the Apache module configuration to provide better visibility into your applications. These capabilities allow for more precise tracing of runtime behaviors, making problem diagnosis and performance optimization easier.

New RDMLX partitions are easier to configure now that we allow all field types by default. Enhancements in partition setup make this system easier to implement and reduce the possibility of errors.
