This update focuses on full Windows native container support and significant performance improvements. Following the [2.1.3 release](https://molo17.com/blog/gluesync-2-1-3-released/) that expanded enterprise connectivity with IBM Db2 and Azure Data Lake integration, this version delivers native Windows container technology, eliminating the performance gap that previously existed between operating systems. ## Key features of Gluesync 2.1.4 ### Windows native container technology: full-speed integration The standout advancement in this release is the **general availability of Windows native containers** built on windowsservercore 2022. This addition provides Windows users with: - native container execution without virtualization overhead; - improved performance compared to previous container implementations; - compatibility with Windows Server environments; - consistent deployment experience across operating systems. This development allows organizations with Windows infrastructure to run Gluesync more efficiently in their existing environment. ### Performance improvements This release includes several core engine optimizations designed to enhance overall system performance: - improved thread management - more efficient resource utilization - streamlined internal processing These technical refinements result in better performance across all deployment scenarios, regardless of the operating system or integration type. ### Chronos scheduler Windows support The Chronos scheduler module now supports Windows native builds, ensuring functionality parity between Windows and Linux deployments for scheduled operations. ## Windows container implementation For teams looking to implement Gluesync with Windows native containers, we’ve provided detailed installation instructions in our [Windows Container Setup Guide](https://docs.molo17.com/gluesync/v2.1/deploy-and-run/docker-install.html#_windows_server_for_windows_containers). This documentation walks through the complete process including: 1. installing Docker Engine for Windows Containers; 2. setting up Docker Compose; 3. configuring service auto-start; 4. deploying with Windows-native container images. The guide includes specific PowerShell commands and configuration steps to ensure a smooth implementation process. ## Technical Note Upon updating to version 2.1.4, temporary replication metrics displayed in the UI for active replications will be reset. This does not affect snapshot metrics or data recorded in Prometheus. ## Upgrading to Gluesync 2.1.4 Current users can upgrade through their customer portal.
