Enhancements
[ZPD-14130] - Cache Eviction
Shopper Experience
Znode provides a robust and extensible cache eviction framework that can be customized to efficiently evict data as needed within the application. The Cache Eviction code has been further optimized so that it can be customized easily to efficiently evict data, especially from multi-server environments.
[ZPD-14101/ZLMC-2209] - Removal Of Clear Cache Call From Change Locale Flow
Shopper Experience
Earlier, when a locale was changed from the web-store, the cache memory of the web-store server used to get cleared because of which the average time required to access the data for the first time after changing the locale used to increase.
With this release, after changing the locale, the cache memory of the web-store server will not get cleared, thereby providing faster access to the cached data.
[ZPD-14131/ZLMC-2236] - Usage Of Output Cache Instead Of Donut Cache
Shopper Experience
Output Cache is now used instead of Donut Cache for the below actions:
HomeContent
TopLevelList - category list
FooterContent
CategoryContent
BriefContent
ContentPageContent
DetailsContent
This change will prevent any rare scenarios in which certain sections of the Category pages could display blank data.
[ZPD-14064] - Performance: Remove Items From Cart
Shopper Experience
When a line item or all line items from a Cart are removed, then instead of deleting line items from the database, a dummy Cart ID will be assigned in the respective tables so that the time required to perform removal of line items is reduced. This change will increase the performance of the Cart screen.
Important: Since this enhancement does not remove original line items from the database, therefore it will be important for project teams to execute deletion scripts after regular intervals so that unnecessary data can be removed from the database.
[ZPD-13978] - Performance: Manage Order Screen
Administration
The code for the Manage Order screen has been optimized to enhance the performance of the Manage Order screen operations and to reduce the time required to update the changes.
