This release note corresponds to the dates June 28, 2024 to July 3, 2024. This release includes back-end updates to workflows, interactive analysis (Notebooks, Galaxy, RStudio), user interface, Data Repository, and Google and Azure integrations to improve upcoming features.
Workflows
Speed up large workflow submissions with the noAddress workflow option
The noAddress workflow option helps avoid resource quota limits when running many workflows in parallel (see Are resource quotas slowing down your workflow analysis in Terra GCP?).
noAddress is recommended when all of the following conditions are true
1. More task VMs are desired than the project's public IP quota, typically 2300 addresses
2. The image used is from GCR or GAR
3. Private Google access is enabled (this should be the default for Terra projects)
noAddress had previously been disabled in Terra due to a Google issue from July 2020 to May 2021. Please see the Cromwell docs for more information.
