  • The release implementation is not always FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED: the v2.2.0-M3 compatibility tests explicitly use WITH (ROWLOCK, READPAST) on SQL Server. Presenting the PostgreSQL-style clause as the general behavior makes this announcement technically inaccurate for a supported database; describe the behavior as database-specific skip-locked acquisition instead.
**`SKIP LOCKED` job acquisition.** The job executor can now acquire jobs using `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED`, so that parallel nodes skip rows another node has already locked instead of blocking on them. In clustered setups this removes contention that previously showed up as rejected job executions when many nodes polled the same due jobs. It's opt-in via `ProcessEngineConfiguration#setJobExecutorAcquireWithSkipLocked(true)` (or `operaton.bpm.job-executor-acquire-with-skip-locked: true` in Spring Boot) — existing installations keep the current behavior until you set it. As with any preview feature, the config property, API, and behavior may still change before the final release, so try it and tell us how it goes.

  • This call to action says it provides the full release notes and migration guide for the announcement, but it links only to the 2.1.x notes; readers evaluating the advertised 2.2.0-M3 are sent to the wrong release line. Please link both release-note pages or scope this sentence explicitly to 2.1.4.
You can find the full release notes and migration guide in our [documentation](https://docs.operaton.org/docs/documentation/reference/release-notes/2_1/).
