The following features are inside Industrial Edge 10/22 and its components:

Component Features Bug fixes
Industrial Edge Hub (IEH)
  • Size is increased for application version files. Customer can upload files up to 10 GB for their version files which are OSS_Readme, OSS, application binary
-
IE License Monitoring and Subscription Management
  • In IEH
    • Users can see ​the quantity of purchased applications
    • Users can see the allocation of licenses to IEMs & no of installations and remaining licenses in each IEM​
    • Users can see a warning when quotas are exceeded, and subscription which are about to expire
    • ​Users can see action suggestions to overcome license warnings​
  • License monitoring enhanced by more visible warnings for about to expire subscriptions and for usage exceeded scenarios.​
    • IE Hub cannot display purchases made via Industry Mall.
    • A "Subscription Mismatch" warning is displayed independent of license purchases in iMall
    • Recommendation to overcome the warning: migrate all purchases to Marketplace.​
  • Purchased subscription can be allocated/deallocated per IEM
    • Allocation defines the installation rights in the specified IEM. Subscriptions purchased in the Marketplace can be only allocated to one IEM​
    • Deallocation defines to taking back the installation rights from the specified IEM
  • Exceeded warnings will be visible per IEM. If any of the IEM exceeded its installation right, the warnings will be visible.
    • There is no enforcement even the customer exceeds the usage. They can keep using the application and copy the version to the IEMs. ​
  • About to expire warnings will be visible per IEM. If any of the IEM allocated with a subscription which is about to expire, the warnings will be visible.​
    • As soon as a subscription expires, it will be automatically allocated from IEM.​
  • We will show an indicator that the IEM report is out of date if there is no new report within 6 months.​
  • Licenses menu is removed and replaced just with Purchases menu where customer can only see the list of purchases from Marketplace and Industrial Mall
-
Industrial Edge Management App (IEMA)
  • Persistent search and sort parameters. IEM is now able to save sort and search parameters for a user session.​
  • Users can navigate on the UI pages and return to see the results for old applied filters.
  • Reduced time to import app if using same docker image multiple times.
  • Security fixes by updating underlying components.
  • Minor UI updates
Industrial Edge App Publisher (IEAP)​
  • Andy app developer now can have facility to upload big size application like more than 5GB to IEHUB
  • IECTL and publisher app now support k8s centric deployments
  • Onboarding IEM with cluster creation progress using "--Follow" param​
  • Manifest - Multiple commands on single run is now available using manifest file implementation
  • Andy app developer now can check whether all IEM services are up and running after onboarding by using "iectl onboard iem-status" command
  • IEAP - Identical Image downloaded/ transfered several times - Fixed​
Industrial Edge Device Kit (IEDK)​
  • Providing option to disable redsocks (system wide) proxyProviding option to disable redsocks (system wide) proxy on IED UI, so the application developer can use only legacy proxy. In future redsocks as transparent proxy will be removed.
  • Supporting all docker providers for installation and operation of IERT packages. Removed docker.io dependency. We are supporting all the docker providers (e.g. docker.io (>= 18.09.1) | docker-ce (>= 18.09.1) | docker-engine (>= 18.09.1) | moby-engine (>= 18.09.1)​
