Release highlights include:
- Personalisation at scale: Business users can easily define audience segments with robust rules for fine-grained personalisation and create variants of a single page for each audience segment. Advanced analytics allow users to understand how content is performing and an improved content authoring experience helps teams deliver key experiences faster.
- Increased headless CMS freedom: Liferay DXP 7.2 introduces a decoupled CMS with improved APIs, giving developers the benefits of headless freedom but with traditional CMS-like management for the business user. This hybrid approach offers the best of both worlds to enterprises looking to efficiently deliver experiences at scale.
- Streamlined business operations: New features in Liferay DXP 7.2 allow users to gain end-to-end visibility on critical business processes with workflow reports, set deadlines for processes and view real-time workflow analytics. Back office operations are further enhanced with peer-to-peer document sharing and open data engine APIs designed to help developers build more flexible business applications.
- Frictionless cloud deployments: Deliver high availability, zero downtime deployments to ensure that mission-critical sites are always online. Liferay DXP Cloud supports the creation of fault tolerance processes to meet organisations’ unique needs and detect and repair common server problems as they occur. This helps prevent small programming errors from accumulating and causing a server crash, without the need to allocate additional resources to do so.
- Simplified IT management: Liferay DXP Cloud delivers detailed performance metrics so IT teams can understand the health and compute requirements of their sites over time. Automated scaling up of bandwidth and compute capacity serves to maintain steady performance through traffic peaks. Teams receive notifications so they can manually downscale resources that are no longer needed. Liferay DXP Cloud also provides automatic, secure backups to ensure that organisational data and documents are constantly protected and ready for restoration in case of critical data corruption or failure.
- Integrate content and commerce: Liferay Commerce 2.0 includes all the latest features of Liferay DXP, including personalisation, advanced segmentation and experience management. The offering allows businesses to place valuable, rich product information at customers’ fingertips, shortening the time from discovery to purchase and serving as a key tool to train sales reps, cross-sell to buyers and empower resellers and distributors.
