Jobleads Releases Review (24.40 - 25.1)
Infrastructure Team

XSS prevention

• Problem: Cobalt found forms vulnerabilities in admin area.

• Solution: Validation and sanitization were applied.

Ontology optimization during indexing

• Problem: xMP & xMP ES used all ontologies for indexing job. That was leading to a slowdown and big memory consumption.

• Solution:  We, together with Actonomy, applied additional parameters to use selective ontologies.

• Effect: Faster job indexing.

Information about session refresh

• Problem: We had no information when the user refreshed the token and stayed with us longer.

• Solution:  We introduced an additional log in refresh process.

• Effect: BI can evaluate how long user stay with us.

Read-only connection in EMS

• Problem: EMS executes a lot of SQL queries against important tables. It caused a general slowdown during the campaign sendout.

• Solution:  EMS uses the connection to the slave database where possible.

xMP ES rollout

• Problem: We want to switch to the xMP ES country by country to be safe.

• Solution:  Currently 14 countries are fully switched.

xMP ES monitoring

• Problem: We need metrics to be sure about xMP ES and Elastic usage.

• Solution:  Aditional dashboard introduced.

Debezium PoC

• Problem: Because of performance and service independence, we will need database separation soon. Databases need to share some data.

• Solution:  We tested Debezium. It's data distribution tool.

• Effect: We were able to replicate data to a dedicated schema using Kubernetes hosting. Soon, we will start the final implementation.

Manticore optimalization

• Problem: From time to time Manticore had serious stability problems.

• Solution: We evaluated master-master replication and decided to eliminate it because it consumed resources and had stability problems. It was an overengeniered solution for our case.

• Effect: Faster response time, less resources and stability.
