Features
Multiple Chronicle Agent Support
Chronicle now supports the ability for multiple Agent Servers for processing Name Normalization analysis and Name Normalization write-back. This change provides significant throughput gains for Name Normalization projects.
Each agent server should only contain 1 Chronicle agent. Scaling should be accomplished by adding a new Chronicle agent to a new Agent Server.
In addition to supporting multiple agents, we've optimized both long-running operations. Your team will realize throughput gains before adding additional agents.
Throughput Results
The following results were measured using virtualized hardware without real-world review workloads in the environment.
Results were measured using a saved search containing 110,000 documents with six fields, each containing a single value.
Test Agents
Agent A | Agent B & C | |
CPU | 6 Cores | 6 Cores |
Memory | 12 GB | 10 GB |
Name Normalization Project Analysis
Version | Doc Count | Field Values | Duration | Docs/Second |
2.3 | 110,000 | 660,000 | 40 Minutes | 45.8 |
2.4 | 110,000 | 660,000 | 13 Minutes | 141.0 |
Name Normalization Project Write-Back
Version | Doc Count | Normalized Values | Duration | Docs/Second |
2.3 | 110,000 | 10,680 | 4 Hrs. 5 Mins. | 7.4 |
2.4 | 110,000 | 10,680 | 29 Minutes | 63.2 |
Your results will vary based on various factors, including the number of agents and case/instance activity.
Attorney Designation, Title, and Organizations
Review teams can now optionally set attorney designation, title, and organization for any normalized name. In addition to support for adding this information when creating a normalized name, users can also:
Set these values when editing an existing normalized name.
Import these values when importing mappings on the manage normalizations tab.
Export these values from the manage normalizations tab.
Filter and sort these values from the manage normalization tab.
Attorney designation includes four built-in options, including an asterisk(*), "ESQ", ", Esq", and "Esq.". These values, when set, are included in the Name Normalization write-back operation with appropriate spacing.
Extensive validation has been added to all forms to avoid conflicts when setting or importing optional information. For more detailed information, please review the Chronicle user guide.
Participant Log/Index
Unique normalized names exported from the manage normalizations tab automatically include all optional information. This export trivializes creating a list of privilege log participants and their identifying information with the click of a button.
General Updates
Improvements to the guided normalization page should result in faster load times when normalizing names.
The view privilege log table includes a "number of rows" count. The row counts record dynamically updates based on filters or field edits.
Administrators can now export billing usage information from the Chronicle configuration page.
Dynamic field selection in privilege log column templates are now sorted alphabetically.
Minor performance improvements across the Privilege Log and Name Normalization pages aimed at improving load times across the application.

Fixed a bug displaying the wrong Modified By user on a Name Normalization project.
Fixed a bug causing the Name Normalization project view page containing a significant number of normalizations to timeout.
Fixed a display issue on privilege logs utilizing multi-object fields.
Fixed a bug preventing privilege logs with deleted fields from loading.
Fixed a bug preventing privilege logs with deleted saved searches from loading.
