# Release Note v5.2⚡

**Release Date:** December 2, 2025

We are proud to introduce Zetaly Suite version 5.2. This update focuses on **significantly improving security data handling (SMF80/RACF)**, enriching the **user experience in the Data Explorer (ZDE)**, and delivering **infrastructure optimizations** for enhanced performance.

---

## 🚀 Key New Features

### 1. Extended SMF80 / RACF Support 🔒

A brand new parser has been developed to fully decode security records (SMF80/RACF), including the most complex data sections:

- **New SMF80/RACF Parser:** Supports all data from **relocated and extended relocated sections**, ensuring comprehensive security data capture.
- **New** `rel_sections` **Column:** Added a new `rel_sections` column (JSON) to the `racfdata` table to store detailed information from the relocated sections.
- **JSON Data Display in ZDE:** This JSON data is now displayable within the **Zetaly Data Explorer (ZDE)** for direct inspection.

### 2. Dashboard Pages Revamping 🎨

The **'My Dashboards'** and **'Dashboards'** pages have been completely redesigned to improve ergonomics and ease of navigation, offering a better user experience.

  - `Does not end with`
- **Filters for BOOLEAN Fields:**
  - `Equals` (`TRUE` / `FALSE`)
- **Query Information Display:** The ability to display detailed information about the query currently being saved in the ZDE.

## 📊 Mainframe Data Enrichment

We continue to enrich the database with new analytical fields:

- **New SMF74-4 Fields (Control Storage):** Added critical fields for Control Storage to improve visibility into memory utilization.
  - [*SMF 74-4 Documentation*](https://docs.zetaly.io/docs/smf-74-4-control-storage)
- **New SMF70-1 Fields (z17 Power Consumption):** Integration of fields related to **z17 power consumption**, allowing for tracking energy efficiency.
