    Limit password characters

    Our security guidelines for compatibility with multiple different systems state that passwords should include only English characters. (plus special and numerical ones of course) But there is no way to enforce such a limit on the Netezza database ...

    User lock for a few hours after failed log on attempts

    For security reasons after multiple failed log in attempts a users account should be blocked for a limited time. Right now the system only allows for permanent lock of account and that is problematic as each unlock needs to be done manually.

    Granularity for backup

    Ideal example of it is 'staging database', which may not be worth backing up. Backing up unnecessary databases is a toll on resources (Network bandwidth, CPU, storage). Having choice of which databases user can backup and at what time may help our...

    Ability to specify NetBackup Copy Number on nzrestore operations

    With multiple CP4D appliances, and multiple NetBackup Media Server Clusters, it would be beneficial to be able to specify the NetBackup Copy Number on nzrestore operations to match that of the most local NetBackup copy. For instance, CP4D applianc...

    Mongo "processor" stage (for delete / insert etc) so we can guarantee order of operations

    Implementing User Roles to Restrict Pipeline Usage Without Connection Objects

    In stages where data is read from or written to, it is essential to define a connection, such as a database, storage, or HTTP server. This requirement can pose a security risk, as users might enter databases or locations that comply with firewall ...

    Add Option to Truncate Table in Destination Stage Before Inserting Data

    In many data transfer scenarios, it is essential to ensure that the destination table is empty before inserting a fresh set of data. Currently, this requires the creation of a separate pipeline to truncate the table, followed by an orchestration p...
