Key Deployment & Platform features for this release

• Latest NiFi version
  Flow Deployments and Test Sessions now support the latest Apache NiFi 1.24 release.
  
• New Debezium CDC processors
  Customers can now build and deploy flows with Debezium based CDC processors for MySQL, Postgres, Oracle, SQLServer and DB2 databases.
  
  
• Deployment alerts for NiFi bulletins
  CDF now detects bulletin error messages in NiFi flow deployments and displays them as a warning in the dashboard.
  
  
• Flow Definition versions can now be tagged
  Customers can now use tags to identify versions easier. Common use cases for tags are applying a custom versioning scheme, or labeling flow versions as ‘ready for deployment’. The CLI introduces new commands to search flow definitions for tags and streamlines the CI/CD process.
  
  
• Deployment configurations can now be exported and reused
  Customers can now export a configuration archive of existing deployments and reuse them when creating new deployments. This speeds up redeploying new versions of the same flow through the Deployment Wizard by filling in parameter values, KPI configurations etc. from the deployment configuration.
