Patch 4.2.1

The comprehensive changelog introduces a range of updates designed to significantly enhance both the functionality and user experience of the system. Administrators can now configure the query time inspector as well as the display of anomalies in Search and Vizpads. 4.2.1 also comes with a host of additional enhancements, including the improved positioning of control filters and the ability to populate zero values in heatmaps.

🚀 New features

Optimizing performance through anomaly management

Admins can now control the visibility of anomalies in line charts at different levels to improve the performance of Vizpads and Search.

1. Instance level: Admins can toggle on/off the visibility of anomalies across the entire instance.

Instance-level anomaly management

Admins can also configure the maximum number of anomalies to be displayed for each chart. For charts exceeding the set limit, anomalies will be automatically hidden to avoid potential performance impact.

1. Vizpad level: Toggle buttons on every Vizpad enable users to show/hide anomalies for that particular Vizpad.

Vizpad-level anomaly management

1. Chart level: To provide even more granular control, each individual chart in Search and Vizpads will include a toggle button to switch on/off the display of anomalies.
