We’re proud to announce the GA release of Acceldata Torch 1.2.1, our data quality and reliability platform that enables data teams to scale across the entire data pipeline, from ingestion to consumption.

Here’s a list of new features in this release. Documentation links are provided, and we encourage you to visit our documentation website to learn more about other features and elements of the Acceldata Data Observability platform.

• Added a New Sub-Strategy for Partition Based Incremental Strategy: Torch supports a new sub-strategy for partition based incremental strategy. This allows you to add three partition columns based on day, month and year to determine the bounds for selecting data from the data source. For more information, see Partition based Strategy.

• Support to view user information of Policies: Torch now displays the user information of all policies in the Data Quality window. For more information, see Viewing Policies.
