What's New in This Release¶
This update of Anyware Manager Enterprise contains bug fixes and stability enhancements. Additionally, the following change is introduced:
Telemetry for Analysis of User Sessions¶
The May update of Anyware Manager Enterprise introduces support for user session telemetry that enables the collection and analysis of session data. Anyware agents on onboarded machines collect session metrics such as CPU usage, latency, packet loss, and bandwidth. These metrics are sent to Anyware Manager Enterprise, where they are collected and analyzed for troubleshooting and monitoring purposes. The analytics data collected facilitates the diagnosis of issues, influencing the formulation of effective troubleshooting strategies.
As a result, businesses are empowered to make data-informed decisions about machine health and resource management. Analyzing session trends and anomalies also supports predictive issue diagnosis, optimal workload management, and maximized performance. For more information, see Session telemetry.

Automated Monitor and Agent Updates for Simplified Machine Management¶
In the May update, support for scheduling automatic updates to monitor and agents has been added. If enabled, Anyware Monitor and Anyware agents installed on onboarded machines are updated in the Opportunistic mode.
In this mode, Anyware Manager Enterprise manages automatic updates at the configured time, provided that machines are idle. If machines are busy at the scheduled time, update are deferred until the next day.
If Opportunistic mode is not enabled, agent and monitor updates are managed manually. Updates will not be controlled by Anyware Manager Enterprise.
The ability to automate agent updates reduces the effort required for keeping agents up-to-date, while ensuring minimal downtime and reduced IT dependency. For more information, see Scheduling Monitor & Agent Updates.
Info
For accurate session telemetry, agents must always be running the latest version.
Support for Additional Regions¶
In the May update, several new regions have been added, making support for Anyware Manager Enterprise available across more geographies. For more information, see Supported Regions.
Info
For accurate telemetry, onboarded machines must be synchronized to Coordinated Universal Time or the machine's local time using the Network Time Protocol or a similar synchronization service.
