New and Enhanced Features in Informatica MDM 10.4 and 10.5

On this page, we will explore the various features that have been added or enhanced in Informatica versions 10.4 and 10.5. I am emphasizing several of these features; however, for a comprehensive and detailed list, kindly consult the official release guide.

Category	10.4v	10.5v
Provisioning Tool	Chart components - You can create Chart components to display data graphically for business entity records, tasks, or other master data information. You can find the Chart component in the Component Editor under the Configuration section.	Multiple users can concurrently perform exclusive configuration tasks in the Provisioning tool, such as adding or editing two different business entities.
	Match Rule Sets - create match rule sets based on a sample data set and the match training. You will find Match Rule sets option under Configuration section.	Elasticsearch Upgrade - integrating an upgraded Elasticsearch node into an existing Informatica MDM system. The existing node continues to handle search operations during the update, ensuring no downtime. For more details follow here
	Additional page Component - in the Layout Designer that provide access to more information that users need. For example, you might design an additional page with primary, secondary and custom components to assist users in accessing more charts or external web applications.	Content Security Policy (CSP) is a protocol designed to mitigate code injection attacks, including cross-site scripting. For Eg, if you wish to display content from Twitter on E360, you can establish a CSP rule that permits content from platform.twitter.com. Failing to configure the CSP rules to allow content from Twitter will result in the linked content being displayed as a broken link, Configure CSP
Hub	The Hub Console is downloaded to the client desktop as a JAR file. Previously, the Hub Console was downloaded to the client desktop as a JNLP file	Few Hub Server properties were introduced, those properties can be configured in cmxserver.properties files com.informatica.mdm.bes.services.hierarchy.with.duplicates.depth com.informatica.mdm.bes.services.hierarchy.no.duplicates.depth cmx.login.autocomplete cmx.server.jgroup.name
REST API	The MDM Hub uses Swagger to list all the REST web services with URLs and parameters. Previously, the MDM Hub used Web Application Description Language (WADL) to list all the REST URLs and parameters. Swagger URL:-http://<host>:<port>/cmx/swagger-ui.html
E360	You can import new data and relationships in bulk from an Excel or a CSV source file. Login to E360 and choose "New File Import" option	You can now export a business entity record and its related records to a PDF file with the Download as PDF menu. Default delimiter is comma. Incase if need a different delimiter add the cmx.server.exportSeparator= custom property in the cmxserver.properties file to specify a delimiter that replaces the default delimiter in the CSV file.
		Filter Business Entity: To filter child or grandchild records of a parent business entity in the Entity 360 UI, enable the `filterChildOutput` property in the Search Query Results Options. This will display search results based on the filter parameters specified for the child records.
		Persisting Search Preferences:-MDM retains each user's search preferences and applies them for future searches. These preferences encompass the fields displayed in the search results as well as the order in which they are sorted.
		Managing Record Versions:-If timeline is enabled, you can create, view, update, and delete versions of a business entity record. You can define the record versions based on their effective periods, For complete details, refer to docs
