What’s new

Product updates, improvements and fixes — everything we ship, in chronological order.

  1. v2026.10-ingestion-deltaNew

    Delta transforms on the main path

    The delta lane reached the main transform path: single-source pipelines now re-transform only what changed, and every reason that still forces a full run is an operator-visible action item.

    • Delta transforms for single-source pipelines: unchanged keys carry forward, only changed rows are re-transformed — the dominant path now pays for change, not volume
    • Delta visibility: structural fallbacks (join shape, conflict policy, broken lineage) and incomplete key indexes surface as action items with the reason attached
    • Superseded transforms can no longer serve as a delta base — composition always builds on the state serving actually uses
    • Contributor selection follows object insertion order, so same-timestamp extracts can no longer drop changed keys silently
    • Tombstoned previous payloads fall back to a full run gracefully instead of failing mid-compose
  2. v2026.10-ingestionNew

    Delta execution, partitioned serving & schema drift

    Delta execution is real: transforms that have nothing to do do nothing, partitioned gold tables serve atomically, and schema drift per table is now an action item, not a surprise.

    • No-op transforms: an unchanged extract reports noop and keeps serving the previous run — zero wasted writes
    • Selective delta writes: only entities and star tables touched by changed keys are rewritten; the rest carry forward
    • Month-partitioned gold serving: fact tables emit one object per populated month and serving stays atomic per job — never a partial set
    • Per-table schema drift: added/removed columns at catalog rediscovery surface as action items instead of being absorbed silently
  3. v2026.11New

    Faster, resumable ingestion

    The ingestion engine is learning to work on diffs: changed keys only, resumable uploads, and explicit source ownership per entity.

    • Delta ingestion — transforms only the records that changed, verified byte-identical to a full recompute
    • Resumable chunked uploads for large source files (24h sessions, manifest-tracked)
    • Entity ownership: a declared source owns each canonical entity — conflicts surface, never resolve silently
  4. v2026.10Improved

    Insights library

    An insights library spanning the business case, governance and the honest limits of the platform.

    • Maturity model, single source of truth, readiness assessment and sustainable roadmaps
    • Platform essays: air-gap deployment, honest-vendor manifesto, board-pack automation, data lineage
    • Consulting-style cover art across the whole library
  5. v2026.09New

    Diagnostic sprint workspace

    Clients fill structured templates in the portal; analysts score and publish findings reports — with or without the platform.

    • Client-owned templates T01, T04 and T06 filled in the portal
    • Analyst workbench for T02 scorecard, T03 mapping complexity and T05 report builder
    • Published reports exportable as board-ready PDF
  6. v2026.10New

    Marketing site rebuild

    The site now leads with the solution and the consulting method — every visual is a bespoke diagram, not a screenshot.

    • New visual system: pipeline diagram, journey steps, dual-track roadmap and governed dashboard — zero product screenshots
    • Consulting page covering the full T01–T06 diagnostic journey
    • Homepage and platform page rebuilt around solution + consulting narrative
