Feature Highlights

In this release, we focus on addressing the challenges presented during ACR Connect installation from our 3rd party dependencies (i.e., RabbitMQ, Erlang…).


We have implemented a bundled installer for all 3rd party software that are pre-requisites to the operations of ACR Connect. These 3rd parties include MariaDB, Erlang, RabbitMQ and OpenSSL. The bundled installer replaces Chocolatey that was previously being used to manage the retrieval / download of 3rd party software during Connect installations.

Additionally, with the bundled installer, we no longer require GitHub to be externally accessible by Connect Sites. The pre-installation doctor command no longer checks for GitHub access. All 3rd party software / designated versions of that software is downloaded along with the Connect CLI installer package.

Other items to note that are included in this release:

  1. resolution to Production Defects reported -

  2. removal of cancellation tokens throughout the CLI installer that would cause the installation process to timeout prematurely

  3. performance tuning to the DICOM Service and Data Manager Service queries to the Connect database(s)
