Release Notes for Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server 7.1
This release sees further beneficial enhancements to the Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server and its related technologies. In addition, numerous fixes have been made to resolve issues raised by customers through the Altium Community.
While the Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server installer includes an automated backup of your existing installation, it is always a good idea to make a pre-update backup of your data yourself – taking a redundancy copy off to one side, as it were. This provides additional safety should any unforeseen technical difficulties arise (see Backing up and Restoring Your Installation). It is advised to test out a new release of Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server on a different machine, before updating your production instance. The use of Virtual Machines can be invaluable in this respect.
In addition, please ensure that you refresh your Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server licensing. From the Admin – Licenses page of the Workspace browser interface, delete the existing Server/CAL licenses and then add fresh instances back in. This will ensure you have the latest licensing, incorporating any licensing-related feature changes.
While connection to the Workspace provided by Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server 7.1 is possible from earlier versions of Altium Designer, users are encouraged to update to the latest version – especially where Workspace enhancements relate to changes to the user interface within Altium Designer.
Upgrade to .NET 8
The Altium Enterprise Server has been upgraded from the use of .NET 6 services to .NET 8 services. The Altium Enterprise Server runtime no longer requires outdated .NET 6. This upgrade ensures long-term support, enhanced performance, and improved security. It introduces modern features, better developer tools, and compatibility with the latest technologies, enabling more efficient and robust operations. This upgrade also future-proofs the platform, aligns with industry best practices, and reduces technical debt while enhancing scalability and reliability.
