Handling of NoSQL Java Collection objects for transaction purposes
All NoSQL “Collection” type objects are not classed as having code - i.e. they are codeless and are created via “getcollection” statements. As such, these objects either exist or do not and therefore NoSQL for Java extension does not compute a checksum on them. See https://mongodb.github.io/mongo-java-driver/3.4/driver/tutorials/databases-collections/ for more information. This means that in reality, if a transaction is really changed to add or remove a collection, then the java code itself is changed and so the transaction will be marked as modified. This in turn means that in an environment where the same release of a the NoSQL for Java extension is used for successive analyses, changes in java objects are enough to change the transaction values.

Data sensitivity
The NoSQL for Java extension is capable of setting a property on specific objects for the following:
- custom sensitivity
- GDPR
- PCI-DSS
See Data Sensitivity for more information. For example:
API Information in Link Properties
You can now view which API created a link directly from its properties.
Framework Information in Collection Object Properties
A new vendor property has been added to the NoSQL Collection to record the framework in use.
