supports patching for multiple versions of products. Our dedicated team of metadata analysts constantly expands the Software Products Library (metadata catalog) with new products and new releases for existing products, covering most of the installed software within your environment.
Adaptiva has a dedicated team that focuses on metadata. This team monitors the vendors and products we support and regularly searches for additional products to add to our metadata catalog.
Our metadata team receives automatic notification within 24 hours of an update release. The team uses Virus Total to scan all downloaded content in an isolated and secured environment. The Virus Total score for the content must be zero (0) before Adaptiva publishes the content to the Adaptiva Content Delivery Network (CDN). The Adaptiva CDN converts the update to our native content format and makes it accessible to Adaptiva customers only.
When testing a new release, the team installs the prior version. The team also tests the upgrade using the new release. After a successful upgrade, the team opens the application to verify a quality installation. The team contacts the vendor for support if it identifies issues during installation.
After confirming a successful update, the team creates, reviews, and approves the metadata before adding it to the metadata catalog. Every Adaptiva customer server with an license downloads the metadata catalog update. See OneSite Patch 3rd Party App Catalog (adaptiva.com) for more information.
The endpoint scanning timeline for patch and product status defaults to once daily. Administrators can start and customize scans at any time using the Request Scan feature.
