Xpress Insight 5.14

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 focuses on VDL enhancements and the Single Logout functionality.

Single Logout

Single Sign-On (SSO) allows a user to log in with a single ID to any SSO integrated application or service. Single Logout (SLO) manages the log out procedure which is from now on supported in Insight. Thereby, when being logged out of their IdP, users are being logged out of Xpress Insight, and when logging out of Xpress Insight, it is possible to log out of any other (single sign-on) application that supports SLO.

Extended support for custom URLs

Insight now supports multiple host URLs, such as https://insight.my.company.com, ,including support for Insight being placed behind a proxy or load balancer which handles SSL encryption. Besides multiple urls, also ports are allowed and wildcard "*" is supported, e.g., https://*
To leverage this feature, use server property insight.server.system.allowed-urls instead of allowed-hostnames.

The xpressinsight Python module will now raise exceptions in error cases forattachment operations. Before, developers needed to check "attach_status" property after every attachment operation to see if it succeeded or not. For backwards compatibility, this feature can be enabled by setting “raise_attach_exceptions" to true in the AppConfig decorator.
VDL has gained some enhancements to the Datagrid, including, draggable rows, resizable columns and custom editors in Treegrid and Datagrid. A number of defects and performance issues have also been addressed.
