Duplicate changes registered for the same entity in the adapter

Matthew Davis (Technical Product Manager) 2 years ago in UNIFYBroker Service updated 1 year ago 2

Priority: Low/Medium
Impact: Higher than necessary UNIFYConnect resource consumption

With a connector and adapter configured in UNIFYBroker, and the adapter has multiple transformations registered (such as joins and future dated changes), a change appears to be registered in the change table for each combination of entity + transformation. 

This can result in 8-10 changes being registered for the same entity. While this isn't impactful from a change perspective (the latter computations of changes result in no actual changes being made to the adapter entity), a connector import of 7000 entities is resulting in upwards of 60,000 changes being registered which results in unnecessary delays of processing and computation on the database.

Patch released with broker 5.3.4.0

I also have another small DEV UNIFYConnect environment with currently 17 records in my users connector and when I make a (minor) change to one record in the source CSV file it causes 14 changes to be registered on the corresponding adapter. Reflection then takes around a minute to run, with the Pending Changes counter counting going down one change at a time, and eventually completing successfully. I did have joined records with blank values until yesterday, but I’ve fixed that issue and performed many import all operations since then so I don’t believe it’s related. If I modify twelve records similarly then I end up with 168 changes, and it takes around two minutes to process with the Pending changes counter counting down in multiples of 12 this time.
