+### New features
+
+* *More convenience when changing time zones* - when viewing metrics or charts, switching time zones is now more conveniently located on the same web page, rather than several clicks away. <!-- IDEA-517 -->
+* *Linux updates on YBA via boot-disk-replacement* - As an alternative to in-place patching, Linux updates (for security, or for upgrades) to YBA can now be performed by replacing the YBA VM boot disk, reinstalling YBA, and re-attaching the data disk. <!-- IDEA-1829 --> 
+* *YBA CLI* - a new YBA command-line which enables script-based automation. Now available in Early Access. <!-- IDEA-1879 --> {{<tags/feature/ea idea="IDEA-1879">}}
+* *Connection Pooling (for Kubernetes)* - K8s support for optional server-side Connection Pooling enables more connections per cluster, more efficient memory usage, and faster first connection (and therefore first query) latencies. <!-- IDEA-1860 --> {{<tags/feature/ea idea="IDEA-1860">}}

 **Batching of rolling operations** {{<tags/feature/ea>}}
 
-YugabyteDB Anywhere now supports applying changes to multiple nodes simultaneously (and in parallel) within each availability zone during rolling operations, such as software upgrades and flag changes. This can reduce the time required to perform rolling operations on large clusters by 2x, 3x, or more depending on the (configurable) batch size. For more information, refer to [Batched rolling restart](/stable/yugabyte-platform/manage-deployments/edit-config-flags/#batched-rolling-restart) documentation.

+### New features
+
+#### Core Database
+
+* *Non-disruptive adding of indexes for xCluster* - Adding an index to a database configured with bi-directional xCluster Replication (or other non-transactional xCluster Replication) is now a non-disruptive, no-downtime operation. <!-- IDEA-1536 -->
+* Read committed isolation now {{<tags/feature/ga idea="IDEA-1099">}}. When a transaction runs on this isolation level, a query sees only data committed before the query began and never sees either dirty data or concurrent transaction changes committed during query execution. <!-- IDEA-1099 -->
+* Execution for Queries using InsertOnConflict clause are optimized for efficient execution for YugabyteDB distributed architecture.  <!-- IDEA-1455 --> {{<tags/feature/ea idea="IDEA-1455">}}
+* Support for synchronized sessions with export snapshot - Now supports pg_export_snapshot to offer consistent visibility of existing data across concurrent transactions & import using SET TRANSACTION by the current transaction. <!-- IDEA-1161 -->
+
+#### CDC
+
+* Support for LSN comparison across replication slots - Users are now will be able to add LSN type at the time of replication slot creation. This will enable users to compare two LSNs irrespective of the slots. <!-- IDEA-1830 -->
+* Support for ALTER TABLE operations on CDC-enabled tables, addressing a key limitation. Users can now modify the table schema even when the table is configured for Change Data Capture (CDC). <!-- IDEA-1642 -->
+
+#### yugabyted
+
+* yugabyted enables native support for enhanced time sync using clockbound service. <!-- IDEA-1987 -->
+* yugabyted enables support for IPV6. <!-- IDEA-1854 --> {{<tags/feature/ea idea="IDEA-1854">}}

 This enhancement significantly reduces communication overhead between the PostgreSQL backend and TServer, which plays a critical role in both read and write flows. We observed a 10+% increase in throughput and a 10+% decrease in latency in workloads like TPCC and YCSB. This improvement is particularly impactful in the following scenarios:
 
-- Colocation. When queries are guaranteed to route to the tablet leader, communication overhead is minimized.
-- Queries involving multiple round trips, such as paginated reads or unbatched requests, benefit from reduced latency.

 Also turned on by default is `--enforce_tablet_replica_limits`, which enforces tablet replica limits based on the memory allocated to per-tablet overhead across the universe. When turned on, any CREATE TABLE request that would create too many tablets returns an error, and tablet splitting is also blocked if the result would be too many tablets.
