What is ManageEngine Applications Manager?

ManageEngine Applications Manager adds a batch of Oracle Cloud monitors in Build 182900.

Build 182900 on 3 November adds monitors for Oracle Cloud API gateways and deployments, container databases, database systems, file systems and network gateways. It also lets REST API Sequence monitors import steps from Postman collections and OpenAPI or Swagger specs, adds MS SQL long-running query monitoring, and fixes a PostgreSQL SSL connection failure broken since build 179400. Build 182800 in October added GaussDB and APM Insight alarms.

What is Redocly?

Redocly makes its docs agent opt-out, and breaks configs that still use enabled.

Redocly shipped four platform builds and a config release on November 3. Config 0.71.0 replaces enabled with disabled across platform.agent, so every listed duty runs unless switched off and old configs fail validation. Platform builds redesigned deployment lint reports around APIs whose results changed, added Format Document for YAML, and fixed Webview reloads and CLI sign-in for users without an organization.

ManageEngine Applications Manager vs Redocly: editorial side-by-side

M5.0

ManageEngine Applications Manager adds a batch of Oracle Cloud monitors in Build 182900.

◆ Current state

Build 182900 on 3 November adds monitors for Oracle Cloud API gateways and deployments, container databases, database systems, file systems and network gateways. It also lets REST API Sequence monitors import steps from Postman collections and OpenAPI or Swagger specs, adds MS SQL long-running query monitoring, and fixes a PostgreSQL SSL connection failure broken since build 179400. Build 182800 in October added GaussDB and APM Insight alarms.

◆ Where it's heading

Cloud coverage is arriving in large per-vendor batches: 15 Azure services in September, now a broad Oracle Cloud set. API monitoring is also getting easier to set up from existing specs.

◆ Prediction

Another cloud-provider batch is likely in a coming build, following the Azure and Oracle Cloud pattern; which provider is not clear from the entries.

6.3

Redocly makes its docs agent opt-out, and breaks configs that still use enabled.

◆ Current state

Redocly shipped four platform builds and a config release on November 3. Config 0.71.0 replaces enabled with disabled across platform.agent, so every listed duty runs unless switched off and old configs fail validation. Platform builds redesigned deployment lint reports around APIs whose results changed, added Format Document for YAML, and fixed Webview reloads and CLI sign-in for users without an organization.

◆ Where it's heading

After the reunite-to-platform rename, Redocly is reshaping config around the agent and making it the default. Around that, daily builds polish the editor and the lint workflow that governs API quality.

◆ Prediction

Expect follow-up platform builds that handle the enabled-to-disabled config change and more agent duty settings in the next config release.
