Connection pools For systems where concurrency limits are important (e.g. NetSuite), you can now define connection pools to dispatch simultaneous requests based on a given concurrency limit. Connection pools are configured (via a new navigation menu option) and then assigned to connector instances.
Even if your integrations don't require concurrency limits, this feature can also be useful when testing process flows where lots of data is sent at the same time. With a connection pool, you control how many requests are sent. Connection pools

Faster flow run queue execution
All scheduled process flow runs are added to your run queue and then run when a slot becomes available. When jobs are run depends on several factors, including a platform-wide FLOW_QUEUE_FREQUENCY
- this is the frequency at which run jobs are picked from your queue. In this release, the FLOW_QUEUE_FREQUENCY
is reduced from 30 seconds to 20 seconds, which means consecutive flow runs are faster.
