Release 1.23

Features

This release incorporates expiration events into the inventory preview, and adds a new “Expiration” preview option to check when each lot expires and how much that was allocated to the study has expired.

Additionally, you’ll note more descriptive groupings in the Lots tab, defining what each lot allocation is and where it can be used.

Performance

We’ve incorporated the first portions of Rust code into our codebase. Rust is a high-performance programming language emphasizing type and memory safety. Our stack is primarily TypeScript-based. In high-throughput areas of the Bluefin codebase (like forecasting), we can now get tighter guarantees on memory usage, accuracy, and safety. Performance improvements will begin to stack up as we move more of our forecasting code to Rust.

This will ultimately help us continue to forecast ever-larger studies with the fast iteration experience people have come to expect from Bluefin.
