What’s Coming Next in XDM

This epic modernizes the XDM web interface to provide a more consistent, user-friendly, and efficient experience for end users, operators, and administrators. It introduces a unified design approach, role-appropriate views, multilingual support, responsive performance, and improved accessibility. The goal is to help customers work more effectively while creating a stronger foundation for future enhancements

This epic replaces the current task execution dependency in XDM with a secure, maintainable alternative. The new solution is intended to preserve existing execution and monitoring capabilities while improving long-term reliability and security. It will support key deployment models and provide a stable foundation for running and tracking XDM tasks

This epic improves XDM Data Shop across the full order lifecycle to make it easier to use, easier to manage, and better aligned with business and compliance needs. It introduces stronger approval controls, better visibility into order status, improved navigation and discoverability, reusable order examples, and more dynamic form capabilities. Together, these enhancements support more efficient self-service while improving governance and transparency

The Data Repository introduces a new XDM component for storing data copies as persistent, reusable, and immutable artifacts. It enables teams to preserve data independently from the task that originally produced it and to reuse these artifacts in later processing steps across XDM

This epic enables automated analysis of relational source databases and stores the results in a centralized metadata repository. It helps customers understand database structures, detect sensitive data, identify relationships, and use this foundation for safer ETL processing and more reliable synthetic test data generation. The repository provides a consistent basis for traceability, rule-based processing, and reusable data intelligence across ETL use cases.

This epic introduces AI-assisted support for creating, finding, understanding, and adapting XDM configurations and scripts. It helps users work faster and more confidently with XDM objects such as workflows, tasks, data shops, modifications, models, and configuration artifacts. The focus is on improving productivity, reuse, and quality while keeping users in control of proposed changes.

This epic improves how users identify, review, and process configuration changes managed through CASC. Instead of working primarily with technical YAML file differences, users get an object-based view that reflects the XDM configuration objects they know from the user interface. This helps teams understand what has changed, who changed it, and which changes should be exported, committed, restored, or synchronized.

This epic expands XDM to support the provision of test data from and to non-relational and file-based data sources. Customers will be able to copy structured data, selectively filter it, and optionally mask sensitive content during transfer.
