This article refers only to currently supported versions of Jedox.

Feature Removed in version Deprecation announced

Cube load option "Deactivate rules calculation"

This option made sense in certain scenarios when the Static Marker Driven Engine had been used. Since this engine was replaced with the Dynamic Marker Driven Engine, there is no need to deactivate rules during a cube load anymore. The deprecation affects cube loads in Integrator, but no action is required.

2022.2 2022.1

Profiler Graph

The graph is not completely reliable, sometimes wrong information is displayed. The Sunburst chart can get very complex without adding further value. Replaced by tree view. Deprecation affects the Request Profiler in Administration for requests related to rule-calculated cells, but no action is required.

2022.2 2022.1

Azure Active Directory credentials to access Azure ML Server

Changing architecture to K8S. Replaced by Jedox License to access AI Services. The deprecation affects AITransforms and AIssisted™ Planning Wizards. Contact the Order Management Team by email to receive an AITransform License.

2022.1

Jedox Ribbon (Big ribbon)

Rarely used by Jedox users and we wish to simplify the product. Deprecation affects Jedox Web, but no action is required. In the User settings > Toolbar > The “Simple ribbon” will be automatically assigned by the system for any customers still using the “Ribbon” option.

2022.1

Binary PHP extensions of Macro Engine in Jedox Cloud

Including such extensions raises a security risk for Jedox Cloud environments. This action is taken to address reported vulnerabilities. Deprecation affects PHP binary extensions (.dll / .so files) that are part of the Macro Engine Configuration. No immediate action is required, but if you're planning to migrate from an on-premises version to Jedox X, then any custom binary extensions added in the Macro Engine Configuration will no longer be available.
