Change Log
Istari Platform
New Features
- Secure Connections — Connect Istari directly to your own storage so files never leave your environment. See Secure Connections for details.
- Omni Search — A new global search that lets you find files from anywhere in the platform. Open it from the Search entry in the left sidebar or press ⌘ K / Ctrl K, then search by file name, description, external version tag, creator, and status. See Search for Files for details.
- 3D Visual Diff — Compare two versions of a 3D model in the platform and see what geometry was added, removed, or displaced. Open a 3D model with two or more versions, select the Compare tab, and choose the versions to compare. It supports OBJ, STL, GLB, glTF, and 3MF files, with structural and displacement coloring, split and unified views, cross-section slicing, ghost overlay, and PNG snapshot export. See 3D Visual Diff for details.
- NATS Messaging (Eventing) — The Istari Platform Helm chart now ships NATS as an in-cluster subchart that powers new eventing functionality in the registry service. NATS is optional in this release but will become a required component in the 2026.06.01 release, so we recommend enabling it now. IT administrators enable it by setting
nats.enabled: true, creating theistari-natssecret, and adding a sharedFILE_SERVICE_NATS_TOKENto theistari-fileservicesecret. Eventing functionality is then turned on with theFILE_SERVICE_FEATURE_FLAGS__EVENTING_ENABLEDflag. See the Istari Platform Installation guide for setup instructions.
Performance and Stability
- FIPS 140-3 for SCS Connections — The SCS now leverages FIPS 140-3 attested cryptographic libraries for its TLS connections to storage buckets. This means SCS transfers can be fully protected by FIPS 140-3 algorithms if using a FIPS 140-3 attested storage provider (such as via the
s3-fips.[region]routes on AWS S3). - FIPS 140-3 for Istari Backend — The Istari registry service now leverages FIPS 140-3 attested cryptographic libraries for its TLS connections and internal cryptographic operations. If combined with a FIPS 140-3 attested storage (e.g. AWS s3-fips routes), kubernetes cluster (e.g. EKS with FIPS mode kernel), and database layer (e.g. AWS RDS), this means data in transit and at rest through the Istari registry service is encrypted using FIPS 140-3 attested cryptography.
Preview
- Workflow Log — A new experimental feature that records runs of work performed outside Istari — scripts, CI jobs, batch runs — against a system. Output files and a single log entry per run are uploaded via the SDK and appear on the system's Workflow log tab, with each entry linking its outputs to the configuration that was active when the run took place. Enable it under Application Settings > Experimental — External Workflows. See Workflow Log and External workflow logs for details.
Integrations
New Integrations
- Zoo.dev Module — Generate 3D CAD geometry from natural-language prompts using Zoo.dev's cloud kernel, with no local CAD license required. Convert CAD files between formats (STEP, STL, OBJ, glTF, and more) through a single API call, compute mass properties (volume, center of mass, surface area), and render snapshots for documentation. See Zoo.dev for details.
Model-Based Engineering
- Dassault Systèmes Cameo® Enterprise Architect Module — Added partial model extraction, letting you extract selected elements from very large models so AI and downstream jobs can work with focused subsets instead of the full model.
