Xpress Insight 5.8

Xpress Insight 5is the technology component of Xpress Optimization that allows you to rapidly configure business applications to operationalize your analytic and optimization models. It provides a Compute capability that enables remote execution of Xpress Solver and Xpress Mosel. It is built on an industry-standard architecture that is scalable, secure and resilient.

This release brings enhancement to Single Sign-On integration, it allows for app-specific environment configuration and also allows Python/Insight model developers to access data of other scenarios efficiently, called inter-scenario access.
  • Full SSO integration. To aid transitioning from Insight 4 to Insight 5, we now support authority group and app assignment via the SSO/SAML2.0 integration if set to “Full integration”.
  • App-specific execution worker environments. This aids to configure app-specific (e.g., Python) environments by overlaying the execution worker’s default environment. A name-spaced environment can be configured in the application.properties file of each Insight worker, and Insight admins can map each app to these execution environments.
  • Python/Insight enhancements (xpressinsight.py):
    • Inter-scenario access: Ability to easily read scenario data from another known scenario identified via the scenario UUID.
    • Aligned behavior of prematurely-exited run modes in Python apps with that of Mosel apps.

We recommend reading the Insight 5 release notes for more details and several other enhancements.
