It highlights new features, important upgrade tasks, and modifications to help customers prepare and apply the update effectively. Show full answer Show less ## Key Features * **Enable large exports with parallel export sets:** Customers can now export data along with multiple small attachments in parallel. This enhancement reduces integration completion time and lowers the impact on other system tasks. * **Connection alias for JDBC data sources:** You can configure a separate connection alias for JDBC data sources, allowing reuse of the alias without needing to reconfigure it for each JDBC data source connection. This streamlines JDBC data source management. ## Important Upgrade Information * **Pre- and post-upgrade tasks:** Customers should review and complete any necessary upgrade tasks before and after migrating to Australia to ensure a smooth transition. * **MSSQL JDBC driver update:** The `mssql-jdbc.7.4.1.jre8.jar` file is no longer included in the MID Server distribution. For MSSQL JDBC data source integrations, you must manually install this jar file or the vendor-recommended equivalent as described in knowledge base article KB0862383. * **Activation:** Import and Export is an AI Platform feature enabled by default in Australia, requiring no additional activation steps. ## Other Release Notes * There were no updates, removals, deprecations, additional requirements, browser requirements, accessibility, or localization changes specific to Import and Export from Zurich to Australia other than those noted above. ## Practical Impact for Customers By upgrading to Australia, ServiceNow customers will benefit from more efficient large data exports via parallel processing and simplified JDBC data source configuration management. However, they must ensure the MSSQL JDBC driver is properly installed on MID Servers to maintain database connectivity. These enhancements help improve integration performance and operational efficiency.
