Millistream Database Application (MDA) version 0.9.56 released

The Millistream MDA project team is pleased to announce the release of version 0.9.56 of our open source application for updating SQL servers with data from the Millistream Data Feed.

  • When connected to a MySQL/MariaDB or PostgreSQL server, MDA now uses upserts for tables marked with InsertFirst=YES instead of first trying with an Insert and then retrying with an Update. This should improve performance and on PostgreSQL generate a lot less logs.

As previously announced, as of v0.9.33 the database schema is developed independently of the MDA and the latest schema including upgrade scripts is available on our http server under the documents section  (MDA_schemas_[version].zip). As of this writing the latest database schema is v126 and is available from https://packages.millistream.com/documents/MDA_schema_126.zip

Do note however that the latest schemas are only needed if you need the new columns/tables, they are not mandatory to operate the MDA!

We consider MDA 0.9.56 to be the best version of MDA available and we recommend that users of older versions upgrade as soon as possible.

MDA 0.9.56 is available for download from the following locations:

Windows users upgrade by running the installer for the new version.

Linux users who have added our apt or yum repositories can upgrade by simply issuing:

  • Debian/Ubuntu: “apt update && apt upgrade
  • Red Hat/CentOS/Amazon Linux AMI: “yum upgrade

Information on how to add these repositories are available athttps://packages.millistream.com/Linux/
