Release Notes for Universal Observability - Nov 2024

New branding, themes, messaging, and layouts

We have a new modern look to complement the addition of important new features and highlight how we are changing what we do to meet the emerging needs of supply chain security.

We have new subscription tiers to reflect how The ActiveState Platform targets supply chain problems with market-leading features.

Get a trial of these features before you buy, to see the benefits of Comprehensive Discoverability, Enhanced Observability, Streamlined Remediation, and Integrated Deployment for yourself.

The Dashboard has been improved

We have made key dependency and vulnerability summary information prominent, without any need to drill down. We have also added support for tracking the progress of any trial you are running.

Introducing Intelligent Remediation Plans on The Platform

The Dashboard Vulnerability Summary now offers access to Intelligent Remediation Plans.

Introducing Container checking

The Configuration pane for projects can now show the contents of containers. See inside containers to find what you need to secure, understand how problem components have been used, and assess your risk exposure. Track your usage patterns, and monitor the entire cluster environment from one place.

Introducing a Dependencies report tab

We’ve made it easier than ever to see all the dependencies your organization relies on, where they are, and what vulnerabilities they have. Need to see if you have a particular component anywhere, or can’t figure out where a phantom component is reported? Now you can search for it. C dependencies can now be separated from the generic dependency type.

Our new report handles large sets of projects and large projects more effectively than ever.

The Vulnerability report has been improved

We now have better consistency between the different ways to view your vulnerability reports, and more important detail when you want it.

Remediation Plans

Remediation Plans show a Dependency Comparison between your current state and the newest available alternatives. A one-click option is presented to accept the available update.

The Vulnerability Comparison shows the difference between your current state and the best available options so that you can transform alerts into action plans at scale. Track your usage patterns across all your projects and prevent drift by keeping them all updated.

A Breaking Change check request is available now. Make updates routine and not disruptive.
