## New Features

* **Multiple Levels of Breakdown for Indicators:** Both Yokohama and Zurich releases introduced the ability to apply multiple levels of breakdown to an indicator by migrating from the traditional Performance Analytics architecture to change data capture (CDC)-based data snapshots. This new architecture supports more than two breakdown levels.
* **Requirement:** Usage of RaptorDB Professional is mandatory for this feature, and not all indicators qualify for migration to CDC-based snapshots.

## Activation Information

* Complimentary Performance Analytics for Incident Management is enabled by default but is limited: it does not allow creating indicators or breakdowns.
* To access full Performance Analytics features, customers must activate the Premium plugin corresponding to their subscription.

## Additional Requirements

* Instances must be on RaptorDB Professional to utilize the new CDC-based data snapshots feature introduced between Yokohama and Zurich.

## Key Outcomes

* Enable tracking of critical process metrics and trends against organizational targets.
* Identify process patterns and potential bottlenecks proactively.
* Visualize historical and real-time process statistics through role-based dashboards, empowering stakeholders to make informed decisions.

## Other Notes

* No updates, changes, removals, or deprecations were noted specifically between Yokohama and Zurich beyond the new multiple breakdown levels feature.
* Browser, accessibility, and localization requirements remain unchanged.
