Denodo 9 Highlights

This page is an overview of the main features of Denodo 9.0 (i.e. 9 without updates); the following pages of this guide provide an exhaustive list of the new features.

Data Catalog

  • Better self-service for business users thanks to a brand new Data Preparation wizard in Data Catalog that elevates the end user experience for customizing datasets. It provides what-you-see-is-what-you-get capabilities, easier to use transformation wizards, direct access to values in the datasets to build filters, and a lot more. It opens the door for non-technical users to massage data in the easiest possible way!

  • AI-enabled platform:

    • Natural language queries graduate and go from Preview mode to Generally Available, with added improvements to enhance its accuracy.

    • Smart recommendations in the query wizards, that learn from usage and recommend transformations and filters for your dataset based on previous executions.

Virtual DataPort - Data Sources

  • Native MongoDB adapter with graphical introspection and better push down capabilities.

  • Redesigned the new data source wizard with a more attractive and easier to use interface.

  • Graphical introspection of tables in Delta format using the Embedded MPP.

  • Simpler configuration of Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS) paths.

Virtual DataPort - Execution Engine

  • Enhanced Massive Parallel Processing capabilities using the Embedded MPP:

    • Support to cache data and create tables in an object storage using Iceberg format, including rollback-based time-travel capabilities.

    • Native execution of queries with window functions in federated scenarios.

    • Extended execution trace for queries using the Embedded MPP engine to have full visibility of how MPP queries are handled.

Virtual DataPort - Operations and Security

  • Segregation of administrative duties brings fine-grain control to administrative roles. You can, for example, define administrators that can change server settings but cannot see any data.

  • New tools to inspect and audit the policies applied to each data access.

  • Integration of Scheduler jobs in Design Studio to simplify the configuration and management of caching jobs.

  • Improved DevOps thanks to better conflict-resolution with Git and advanced methods to generate delta-based revisions.

Design Studio

  • New welcome page with direct access to the most common actions and useful resources to accelerate the onboarding of new users.
