    New Features

    Custom Spark Jobs

    Custom Spark Jobs are back. Removed in Fusion 4, this job is a viable alternative to Custom Python Jobs and Scala Script Jobs. Custom Spark Jobs allow you to simply upload a JAR file to the blob manager and specify a class name in the job configuration.

    If you’re upgrading from Fusion 4.x to 5.2.4+, and your search current application utilizes Custom Spark Jobs, this update may make your migration easier.

    Improvements

    • The facet zone configuration form now allows you to create a facet zone with Set Facets rules:

      1. Create a facet zone in the Templates screen or directly in the Predictive Merchandiser screen.

        Facet zone improvements 01

      2. Use the form to configure a custom facet zone with a Set Facets rule.

        Facet zone improvements 03

    • When you enter a null results query in Predictive Merchandiser, the typeahead now gives a helpful notification instead of an empty results list.

      PM typeahead with no results

    Bug fixes

    • The Confluence connector now redacts the password for the service account in the connector logs.

    • A bug was fixed with the Detect Language Index Stage that could negatively impact downstream operations if the stage’s RegEx operations became stuck. Now, the stage will time out if a field takes more than 10 seconds to resolve. The document is still indexed, but the language is not detected.

    • A bug was fixed that required at least 3 fetch threads for the SharePoint Online connector to work. You can now set fewer than 3 fetch threads.

    • A bug was fixed that prevented connector plugin service pods and backend service pods from starting if the Pulsar schema was unavailable.

    • A bug was fixed that prevented authentication with an OIDC realm from working.

    • A bug was fixed that prevented Fusion from importing a JSON object file if the JSON did not contain a metadata object on the same level as the objects object. For example:

       {
  "objects" : {
    "indexPipelines" : [
      {
        "id": "abc-123",
        ...
      }
    ]
  },
  "metadata": {}
}

    • Previously, jobs that timed out reported a "Success" status. Now, when a job times out, the error details message states:

      Job terminated due to no plugin activity within <number> seconds.

    • In Fusion 5.4.0, the JAX-RS libraries were upgraded, causing Appkit’s webapps service to stop working as expected. The JAX-RS library upgrades are reverted to fix this issue.

    • A bug was fixed in Predictive Merchandiser that removed the ) character from the URL if the character appeared in a facet name, such as (USA).

    • A bug was fixed that sometimes prevented Predictive Merchandiser from marking zones as Stale.

    • Miscellaneous UI bug fixes.
