This release includes major modifications to Minarca, however the changes are not visible to the users. The changes are hidden under the hood and will help us deliver a stable product with a solid foundation.
The persistent layer has been rebuilt, again. Over the years, the persistent layer of Minarca has seen a couple of iterations; and, with each iteration we have improved stability and increased flexibility.
