> *External map layers:* The GIS app now supports TMS (Tile Map Service),
> XYZ and WMS (Web Map Service) layers. These are all popular protocols for
> map data and there are numerous map services available, allowing you to
> display maps for rivers, roads, weather, land data and everything else.
> External map layers can be set up from the Maintenance app, and then be
> accessed from the top bar in the GIS app.

> set up, run and scheduled from the Maintenance app. You can also run
> immediately and preview from the the context menu.

> *Data analytics export as raw data:* The analytics API now lets you
> produce aggregated data exports in the raw data value set format. This is
> useful for data exchange, e.g. you can aggregate data in a source system

> elements using aggregate indicators or program indicators, before importing
> as raw data values in the destination system. You can try it out using the
> Pivot table app from *Download* > *Advanced* > *Data value set XML*.

> *Flexible disaggregation:* Data elements can now be disaggregated
> differently for each data set they are part of. Put differently, a data
> element can be linked to multiple category combinations. When assigning a
> data element to a data set, you can define which category combination to
> use. This is useful in order to reuse data elements, for instance when
> different provinces in a country employ different data disaggregation, or
> when the disaggregation change from year to year.

> *Soft data value delete:* Data values are now “softly” deleted, meaning
> they are marked as deleted in the database rather than permanently removed.
> A new field *deleted* has been introduced for data values which is set to
> true for deleted values. Softly deleted data can optionally be included
> when requesting data through the API by setting the *includeDeleted*
> param to true. This allows clients, such as Android apps and third-party
> systems, to react when data has been deleted in DHIS 2.

> *Locking for completed events:* Completed events can now be automatically

> *Event locking per program:* In the Event Capture and Tracker Capture
> apps, time periods can be locked in order to prevent new events to be
> added. This is configurable through the *expiry days* and *expiry period
> type* properties, which controls the number of days after a period of a
> specific period type for which events can still be added. For example: if
> expiry days is 7 and expiry period type is monthly; new events can be added

> *Web server clustering:* This release allows for deploying DHIS2 in a web
> server cluster. When configured appropriately, each node in the cluster
> will ensure that the application caches of the other nodes are kept in
> sync. Up to 5 nodes can be configured, allowing for web server horizontal
> scalability. For each node, the hostname of the other nodes must be
> configured.

> *Database read replication:* DHIS2 now allows for configuring up to 5
> read replicas of the master database. When set up, the application will
> automatically offload read-only database queries to the read replicas,
> allowing for horizontal scalability of the database read operation
> capacity. Each read replica must be specified in the dhis.conf
> configuration file.

> resource. If you omit the version part of the URL, the system will use the
> current API version. The last three versions of the API will be supported.
