2025-10 Monthly Summary — inetsoft-technology/stylebi Overall focus: stability, performance, and reliability improvements across the codebase with an emphasis on non-blocking operations, consistent rendering, and robust configuration handling. Delivered changes reduce HTTP request blocking, improve data readiness handling, and prevent common disposal-related failures, strengthening business usability and supportability. Key features delivered: - Non-blocking VGraphPair initialization to prevent HTTP request thread blocking when init is false, reducing deadlocks and improving responsiveness. (Commit: cdb2ff88cd1f3da040eafdc1760dcee4512ec506; Bug 72773) - Chart rendering consistency achieved by integrating the chart image directive across legend, title, facet, and background components for uniform image rendering. (Commits: 6c7254f2b70ac89c4f894f6add4f843d76235bce; 15e2c6a7ff2306e7039c1e92170dc8fafa79113f; Bug 72803) - Retry mechanism for chart images when data is not yet initialized, enabling client retries via Retry-After header until data becomes available. (Commit: cd945cde2ce55e0901ec2aefccab0e96bded677f; Bug 72803) - Reintroduced and guarded the userRoleListQuery configuration property to prevent misconfiguration, with null checks to ensure safe initialization. (Commit: 29b40263b980f76b3ac6b38d48631485b1f59201; Bug 72782) - Async handling of blob storage event listeners via an ExecutorService to avoid blocking main storage operations and improve throughput. (Commit: 5d25f6d531c491da14bc0880f280d1945dd30e98; Bug 72849) - Null-safe disposal for ViewsheetSandbox to prevent NullPointerException during sandbox teardown. (Commit: 10752b5788193b595fc92e278c42ded601e7b30d; Bug 72722) Major bugs fixed: - Bug: VGraphPair initialization blocking HTTP requests — now conditionally waits only when init is true to avoid blocking request threads. (Commit: cdb2ff88...) - Bug: Retry chart area images when VGraphPair is not initialized yet via Retry-After header. (Commit: cd945cde...) - Bug: Reintroduce missing userRoleListQuery configuration property and guard its usage. (Commit: 29b40263...) - Bug: Chart image directive integration across chart components (legend, title, facet, tile background) for consistent rendering. (Commits: 6c7254f2..., 15e2c6a7...) - Bug: Blob storage event listeners blocking operations — introduced asynchronous processing. (Commit: 5d25f6d5...) - Bug: NullPointerException during sandbox disposal — added null checks before disposal. (Commit: 10752b57...) Overall impact and accomplishments: - Significantly improved runtime responsiveness under user interaction scenarios by removing blocking paths and enabling asynchronous processing. - Increased chart rendering reliability and consistency across UI components, reducing user-visible bugs and re-renders. - Hardened configuration handling and disposal logic, lowering the risk of misconfiguration and NPEs in production. - Demonstrated end-to-end improvements in concurrency, async patterns, and code quality with measurable gains in throughput and stability. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Java concurrency and asynchronous processing (ExecutorService, non-blocking init, Retry-After semantics) - HTTP thread pool considerations and request lifecycle resilience - UI rendering pipelines using directives for image-based rendering - Configuration management and null-safety guards - Refactoring and template-binding practices for consistent component behavior

September 2025 (inetsoft-technology/stylebi): Delivered high-impact features, resolved stability blockers, and improved data access performance. Key features: dynamic scaling metric based on active user sessions—configurable and integrated into utilization reporting; configuration management refactor moving font path from Dockerfile to Java properties with new Java debug env var for easier debugging and maintainability; database query optimization to fetch all user roles in a single operation, with updated data cache and provider services to support large user bases; Viewsheet embedded UI API: added setInputSelectedObject JavaScript function to improve interactivity in embedded viewsheets. Major bugs fixed: introduced timeouts to future.get() calls across storage/service operations to prevent indefinite blocking and improve system stability. Overall impact: more accurate autoscaling decisions, reduced risk of deadlocks, significantly faster role lookups for large user deployments, and greater deployment flexibility. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Java development (new metric class, config refactor), Java properties and environment variables for config, Docker deployment considerations, frontend JavaScript API for embedded UI, DB caching/performance optimization, and reliability engineering (timeouts).

August 2025 focused on stabilizing authentication and caching layers, modernizing dependencies, and expanding test coverage to improve reliability and security. Key outcomes include migrating LDAP auth to Ignite caches and removing legacy cluster cache to fix race conditions; introducing an Ignite-based DB security cache with a singleton service and a map-of-sets transaction pattern to reduce race windows and improve transactional integrity; implementing a hard cap on local blob cache size to improve memory predictability; building DB authentication test scaffolding and expanding test coverage to detect deadlocks and security issues earlier; and modernizing the dependency stack (removing Commons Lang v2, upgrading BouncyCastle FIPS, Spring alignment) to reduce risk and improve maintenance.
