[edit] Abstract
This document provides a detailed overview of XP3® Suite Version 5.6 released on . Sections within the document detail each new enhancement, describe compatibility issues related to updating, and list all updated requirements. This document is intended for all current and prospective users and IT personnel who aid in the implementation and deployment of Interactive Edge’s XP3 Suite.
[edit] Introduction
Interactive Edge has enhanced its XP3 product offering based on user feedback. XP3 Suite Version 5.6 includes enhancements to the following application areas:
- XP3 Presentation Builder/Viewer
- XP3 BI Presentation Builder
Interactive Edge believes these latest enhancements continue to strengthen XP3 Suite’s position as the premier data analysis and presentation building tool on the market today.
[edit] Compatibility with previous versions
Interactive Edge makes every attempt to minimize the impact of updating to new versions. Backwards compatibility is always maintained, meaning that the new version of the software supports documents and databases created by previous versions of the software.
Even though backwards compatibility is maintained, forwards compatibility cannot always be maintained, meaning that users cannot use newer versions of documents and databases with older versions of the software. Therefore, it is recommended that all users upgrade to the latest version at the same time to avoid compatibility issues.
Additionally, Interactive Edge strongly recommends that all users upgrade to the latest version in order to take advantage of the new enhancements and bug fixes.
[edit] Presentation Documents Format
No changes have been made to the format of the presentation documents or any of their components - XP3 tables, XP3 charts, XP3 intelligent text elements, etc. If you are currently on XP3 version 5.5 or later, there are no specific considerations for XP3 Presentation Builder/Viewer users. However, if you are upgrading from a version prior to 5.5, it is highly recommended that you upgrade the entire user base concurrently to avoid compatibility issues.
[edit] Relational Database Schema
No changes have been made to the relational database schema for this version. Therefore, if you are currently on XP3 version 5.5 or later, there are no specific considerations for XP3 Relational Data Engine users. However, if you are upgrading from a version prior to 5.5, it is highly recommended that you upgrade the entire user base concurrently to avoid compatibility issues.
[edit] MSAS Cube Structure
No changes have been made to the structure of the MS Analysis Services cubes generated by XP3 Data Workshop. If you are currently on XP3 version 5.5 or later, there are no specific considerations for XP3 Data Warehouse users. However, if you are upgrading from a version prior to 5.5, it is highly recommended that you upgrade the entire user base concurrently to avoid compatibility issues.
