Release 7.0 Highlights
For more information and full details, review the 7.0 Unqork Platform Release Notes.
Introducing Unqork Data Modeling
Software data models are a visual representation of your data and data elements. These visual representations define how data elements relate to each other and how your data is stored in a database. Unqork Data Modeling lets you create similar data structures for your Unqork applications without the burden of using code. Once you create your data models, you can apply them to your modules. From there, simply drag and drop the fields where you want them in the Module Builder.
In addition to the documentation for Unqork Data Modeling, we have a new Unqork Data Modeling course on Unqork Academy for self-guided learning.
Introducing the Data Modeling's Query Builder
Visual Query Builder provides a new and intuitive way for Creators to create customizable, reusable, and high-performing queries on their data sets. Once a query has been created it can be accessed through a Plug-In component to retrieve the pre-filtered data into your modules. Query Builder includes support for accessing data created with the Data Modeling feature set and existing submissions created by your application.

Introducing On-Prem Groups with Unqork’s Integration Gateway
You can now connect to on-premises (or on-prem) systems using Unqork's Integration Gateway. These systems can include apps (Jira and Sharepoint) enterprise resource planning (ERP) software (SAP and Oracle), databases, and much more. This feature lets you group one or more on-prem agents and create a secure connection between your organization's systems and Unqork.

Introducing Application Performance Monitoring
Application Performance Monitoring (APM) continuously monitors Unqork application performance, availability, and overall health by analyzing various metrics. That way, you can minimize downtime and optimize performance. Unqork's APM feature now supports Datadog and Splunk integration.
