Easy2Patch Catalog Infrastructure Update
With the new architecture, catalog packages are now delivered through a single centralized publishing endpoint. The objective is to make catalog operations more controlled and traceable while enabling automated installation and uninstallation testing in Sandbox environments.
We are introducing an important architectural change to the Easy2Patch catalog management infrastructure.
With the new architecture, catalog packages are now delivered through a single centralized publishing endpoint. The objective is to make catalog operations more controlled and traceable while enabling automated installation and uninstallation testing in Sandbox environments.
Installation packages are still obtained directly from the official sources of the respective software vendors and transferred to the Easy2Patch publishing infrastructure. Packages are not downloaded to intermediate local systems or repackaged during this process.
The new catalog architecture also introduces automated integrity, version accuracy, installation and uninstallation validation. Where applicable, packages are tested automatically in Sandbox systems. More than 70% of Easy2Patch catalog products are currently managed through controlled automation processes, with automated updates also undergoing human review before publication.
**Required Customer Action ** The Easy2Patch server must be able to access the following address:
https://picblobstorage.blob.core.windows.net
Customers operating in environments where internet access is restricted through firewall or proxy policies must allow access to this address.
With this centralized delivery model, maintaining access to a single publishing endpoint will be sufficient instead of managing multiple download domains belonging to different software vendors.
We apologize for the delayed notification, as this architecture change has only recently been introduced.
If you have any questions or require assistance during the transition, please contact the Easy2Patch Support Team.
