Optimized

  • Backstage > Distributions > sFTP: Changes to sFTP client for distributions to allow uploads via sFTP into hidden directories on the server. This setup is used by some sFTP server administrator for privacy and data protection purposes. (Note: This change only affects sFTP outputs. Uploads with unencrypted FTP had no issues in this case, even to the same servers, because a different client library is used here.)
  • Backstage > Framework: Generator for random UUIDs got an additional compatibility layer. This change has no impact on generating such UUIDs, it just ensures that this generator is future-proof even after future system upgrades.
  • Backstage > Database Redundancy: Improved database replication/redundancy for certain background maintenance tasks.
  • Various minor stability and performance improvements.
