What's new in Cora SeQuence V9.9
Cora SeQuence V9.9 introduces a new and improved archiving mechanism to help you meet business and legal requirements for storing and retrieving data. Besides effective maintenance and costs, archiving also enables efficient data management and boosts your system's performance, by keeping the operational database lighter.
Main benefits
- Flexible storage and purging policy configuration
- User-friendly interface to search and retrieve archived data
- Permission-based access to archived data
- Support of a variety of storage solutions: Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service), Azure Files, and network drives
New feature
- The archiving feature extracts data from the Cora SeQuence database and moves it to the archive database, making sure that only operational data resides in the Cora SeQuence database.
For more details, see this article.
NOTE
The new archive feature replaces the V9.4 archiving mechanism.

When you deploy pre-built applications, you can choose between the Standard and Premium packages. The Premium package includes HotOperations. You can also build and deploy your own Cora SeQuence applications.
NOTE
Deploying the Flowtime Lite portal is similar to deploying the standard Flowtime application. If you deploy the Flowtime Lite portal on the same machine that hosts the standard Flowtime, use the application ID to distinguish between them.
