Flat File Attribute Row Based Format Support

The Flat File for attributes has been changed so that one attribute key/value(s) pair per line is now supported (rather than a row for each product that lists all the attributes). For clients with a large number of attributes across their catalog, the new format option will offer a clean feed without the need for null values whenever a product does not have an attribute. 

Note this format still supported:

product_id|attribute_colors|attribute_size
349532|black,heather,plum,navy|s,m,l

However, the file must be one or the other format. The system automatically detects the format based on the header.

New row based attribute feed format with multi-value attributes in one row (delimiter can be configurable but should be different from the column delimiter):

product_id|attribute_name|attribute_value
100|color|red,blue,green
100|size|s,m,l,xl

New row based attribute feed format with multi-value attributes in individual rows:

product_id|attribute_name|attribute_value
100|size|xl
100|color|green
100|size|m
100|color|blue
100|color|red
100|size|s,xs
100|size|l

Messaging for Partial Data in Reporting

When visiting Sales, Site Analytics, or Slice/Dice reporting pages, clients will be notified if impartial data is being displayed.

RichPromo

Targeting Campaigns by UK Postal Code - Beta

UK postal codes are supported (in a limited capacity) for RichPromo geotargeting.

Caveats:

  • Postal codes from smaller regions are not supported. For example: Isle of Man, Guernsey Channel Islands, Jersey Channel Islands
  • Due to service provider issues (which help match IP addresses to postal codes), while matching a postal code target for UK, we skip city and region (or state) matches.
  • Due to service provider issues, we expect a low number of IP addresses to match post codes in the UK.

ICS

Search

Improved search results so that expected and relevant categories are returned.

DataMesh

Operational Data Store

The operational data store (ODS) within DataMesh is used to hold the data served in real-time APIs. ODS has been enhanced so that custom tables can be created within HBase, allowing the platform to support user-defined APIs. The custom API functionality is coming in a future release.
