FME 2025.0 - Feature Highlights

FME 2025.0 is here, packed with exciting new features that transform how you work with data. Our new stream capabilities improve real-time processing by introducing Remote and Heartbeat support, turning fast-moving data into immediate insights for smarter decision-making. Native Neo4J integration simplifies complex graph analytics, while centralized Connection Storage in FME Flow streamlines shared connection management. With 2025.0, data handling is more agile, flexible, and powerful than ever before. Stay tuned for big groundbreaking advancements reveals at The Peak of Data and AI . Feature Highlights Remote Streams: FME Flow Streams can now run on Remote Engines Services, as Remote Streams , to run streams closer to data sources, drastically reducing latency and boosting scalability. To maintain stability, Remote Streams automatically shut down after 24 hours of disconnection from the Remote Engines Service, and seamlessly resume when reconnected—all supported by an improved connection UI for a smoother setup experience. Heartbeat Streams: Our new Heartbeat support ensures that when streams experience extended quiet periods, the TimeWindower now processes features accurately, avoiding outdated data retention. This feature introduces a configurable heartbeat option on the connector, enabling the system to stay responsive even in the absence of data flow. KafkaConnector is the first to support this capability, with additional streaming connectors scheduled to release in the coming months. Want to learn more about this feature? Watch our short demo video here . FME Flow as Connection Storage Location: Streamline your connection management by leveraging FME Flow as a centralized repository for database and web connections. By designating FME Flow as your storage location in FME Form, teams gain immediate access to shared connections without extra setup. We’ve ensured that a Centralized Connection store enables consistent configurations, tightens access controls, and improves overall workflow efficiency. Neo4j Reader: FME now includes native support for Neo4j, enabling users to effortlessly integrate graph database queries into their workflows. The Neo4j Reader lets users execute Cypher queries directly to retrieve nodes, relationships, and paths, all while preserving the integrity of your graph structures. With the added flexibility of SQL transformers to refine query results, users can now more easily analyze network relationships, connected assets, or social graphs. Additional Enhancements Spatial Definition Table — Improving Spatial Data Visibility: The new Spatial Definition Table within Reader Feature Types displays spatial column names, geometry types, and spatial types (where applicable) to enhance spatial data discovery. Additionally, enhanced canvas objects now indicate the presence of spatial data by showing the spatial column name when available, complementing the Schema Preview window for a more intuitive and efficient data exploration experience. User Parameters — Precise Conditional Visibility Control: Building on the Conditional Visibility feature from FME 2023.0, FME 2025.0 now introduces Compound Conditions. This enhancement allows for multiple conditional statements and provides a broader set of operators, offering even more control over when parameters appear for an intuitive user interface. Want to learn more about this feature? Watch our short demo video here . New and Updated Integrations IBMMQConnector: FME now includes a dedicated IBMMQConnector for IBM MQ 9.X, streamlining both sending and receiving messages. Delivered as an FME package, the connector eliminates the need for complex JMS library setups, offering simplified connection parameters and supporting both streaming and batch message processing. RabbitMQConnector Quorum Queue Support: In addition to classic queues, the RabbitMQConnector now supports quorum and stream queues. With the new Queue Type parameter, users can select Classic, Quorum, or Stream, facilitating reliable and flexible message retrieval across all RabbitMQ queue types. Database Case Control — Table and Column Names: FME now offers enhanced control for managing table and column name formatting across all database formats. Users can choose to convert names to uppercase, lowercase, or keep the original case while ensuring compatibility across different database systems. Databases — Write Schema-Only Tables : With the new Always Create Table setting available across all major database formats, FME generates database tables even when no feature data is provided. This streamlines schema-only migrations, allowing users to replicate database structures from source to destination without requiring data. Want to learn more about this feature? Watch our short demo video here . Simplified Database Integrations — Unified Format for Spatial and Non-Spatial Data: FME has consolidated major JDBC-based database formats to support both spatial and non-spatial tables under one unified format name. Improved formats: Snowflake Microsoft SQL Server (JDBC) Microsoft Azure SQL Database (JDBC) SAP HANA and SAP HANA Cloud Teradata Stay tuned for further database unification in further releases. Add IFC Opening Feature Reading: FME’s IFC API Reader now supports IfcOpeningElement features, allowing for more precise handling of wall, window, and door openings. This update enables accurate clipping of boundary surfaces so that walls, doors, and windows are rendered as single flat surfaces when necessary. By using IfcOpeningElement solids for geometry processing, interoperability across BIM, GIS, and 3D modeling applications has been significantly improved.

New Transformers for Imagery in FME

In today’s modern era, imagery is more popular than ever before. Whether you’re looking to manipulate bands, or clip an image based on a boundary, FME provides users with an abundance of tools to get the job done. New to imagery in FME? Check out the four custom transformers below, built by our team to help you quickly and more efficiently work with your imagery data in FME. Save time and effort on workspace development by using these new pre-built tools: Use the workspaces as building blocks to create your own prototypes and imagery solutions. Cut the number of transformers you need to perform some common imagery tasks, allowing for greater authoring efficiency. Experience faster and more consistent implementation of imagery processes. ImageIdentifier The ImageIdentifier is designed for use with Ollamas' Llava 7B parameter model, leveraging its API endpoint for image tagging. When a prompt is supplied, Ollama will return string descriptions with the appropriate information. It is intended for use with JPEG and PNG image formats ImageryHalor This transformer creates a halo around an image - a gradual blend into the surrounding user-selected color, to create smooth effects and transitions from imagery to a background. To generate the halo, the transformer creates concentric buffers around the image area. Each buffer receives the same RGB value. Once buffers are rasterized, the transformer copies color values to the alpha band where they will represent the amount of transparency rather than colors. The higher the value, the more transparent a pixel will be moving outward of the project area. ImageWatermarker The ImageWatermarker allows you to add a Watermark to images, such as photographs, scanned maps, CAD blueprints, and rasterized PDFs. This transformer combines two image files (one base image, one watermark image) and overlays the Watermark onto the base image, allowing the user to choose the opaqueness, frequency, angle and scale of the Watermark ImageColorAdjuster This transformer assists in Image color adjustments. There are five different choices: Brighten, Color Correction, Greyscale, Inversion, and Gamma Correction. This transformer takes an image, extracts the image’s bands to determine if the image is a single or multi band image, and performs (an) expression(s). Additional Resources Learn more about common imagery tasks and imagery basics. Join our upcoming webinar on December 11 to get started with imagery in FME. What should we build next? Please tell us in the comments what other tools or custom transformers we can add to the FME toolbox to make working with imagery even easier in FME.
