Our latest updates
What's new in the 2024 Spring release
Be Informed Workbench
The new component in our RegTech platform, the Workbench, allows you to interpret regulations, share and discuss interpretations, and ensure full traceability of your compliant application back to the original source.
In the Workbench, regulations are transformed into a Formal Language for the Interpretation of Normative Theories (FLINT). FLINT is a, machine-readable explicit interpretation of regulations, forming the backbone of our regulatory ecosystem.
Improvements in Be Informed Studios
Support for FLINT interpretations
This release includes the provisioning of published FLINT interpretations to the Studios via bundles exported from the Workbench. The interpretations can be used as reference when working with BMS and AMS.
Support for user avatars
Back office layout: from now on it is possible to include avatars for users, which improves the recognition of users who contribute in a particular case. User avatars are shown in various view components like forms and lists.
Usability: populate mappings and service definitions
Defining input- and output data configurations of handler groups, event types and request and response configurations of service- or event operations can be quite labor intensive. This release brings several improvements that make these configurations easier to implement.
Improvements in Be Informed Runtime
Make the use of AMS server in local development easier
From 2023 Spring the availability of a valid license is checked before starting the AMS server. That made the use of AMS server in local development more difficult. Therefore, we relaxed the check. From now on, the AMS server can be started without license for a short time frame (the limit is set to 8 hours). Note that after this limited period, the server stops functioning.
Platform update
Changes in the runtime platform
As announced last year, from this release on forward the Be Informed server is updated to work with Java 17. This way we stay current for reasons of security and take advantage of new features and improvements brought by the latest versions of Java. We see that more and more Java open source projects are demanding Java 17 as minimum supported version. Therefore, we’ve concluded that we needed to update the required runtime of Be Informed as well.
Library changes
Many third party libraries used by Be Informed have been updated to newer versions. Worth mentioning are: update of the Hibernate framework (from 3.6.10 to 5.6.15) and the upgrade of the Spring framework (from 4.3.30 to 5.3.27).
