What is ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus?

RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.

RecoveryManager Plus is a backup-and-recovery tool for Active Directory and Microsoft 365, and it is the most feature-active of the ManageEngine set here. Recent builds add real backup coverage — AD sites and subnets, Entra ID local admin passwords, S3-compatible repositories, SIEM audit forwarding, and Entra ID BitLocker recovery keys — alongside CVE patches and RemCom agent hardening. Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.

What is Tinybird?

Tinybird keeps shipping weekly, now tightening the knobs on deduplication and indexing.

Tinybird ships a changelog every Friday, and the recent ones alternate between MCP tooling for LLM access and operational controls for its ClickHouse-based stack. The October 2 release adds secondary indexes in Data Source settings and a configurable deduplication window, tightens SQL API and deployment validation, and makes arm64 Tinybird Local depend on a 4KiB page size kernel. The Classic migration period has ended, so v1 is now the only path forward.

ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus vs Tinybird: editorial side-by-side

M2.5

RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.

◆ Current state

RecoveryManager Plus is a backup-and-recovery tool for Active Directory and Microsoft 365, and it is the most feature-active of the ManageEngine set here. Recent builds add real backup coverage — AD sites and subnets, Entra ID local admin passwords, S3-compatible repositories, SIEM audit forwarding, and Entra ID BitLocker recovery keys — alongside CVE patches and RemCom agent hardening. Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is coverage expansion: methodically extending what can be backed up and restored across on-prem AD and Entra ID, while broadening cloud storage targets and operational integrations. The dependence on Microsoft's own PowerShell modules is the cost of that coverage, and 6322 shows where it bites — a stale module on the customer's side takes the product down mid-enumeration. Feature builds and pure-fix builds alternate at roughly a two-month cadence, so a single-issue build reads as a gap between feature cycles rather than a slowdown.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued expansion of Entra ID and cloud-native backup coverage and more storage-target options, with security patches folded into each build; the next build carrying a Features section is due on the cadence this feed has held.

ANALYTICS
5.0

Tinybird keeps shipping weekly, now tightening the knobs on deduplication and indexing.

◆ Current state

Tinybird ships a changelog every Friday, and the recent ones alternate between MCP tooling for LLM access and operational controls for its ClickHouse-based stack. The October 2 release adds secondary indexes in Data Source settings and a configurable deduplication window, tightens SQL API and deployment validation, and makes arm64 Tinybird Local depend on a 4KiB page size kernel. The Classic migration period has ended, so v1 is now the only path forward.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is moving from 'real-time analytics API' toward a managed data backend that both developers and LLM agents can query. MCP tooling (one Endpoint tool, configurable formats, query plans) covers the agent side. Secondary indexes, dedup windows, on-demand Copy Pipe compute and faster Materialized View deploys cover the operator side. With Classic gone, expect more of the backlog to be about tuning v1 than about migrating to it.

◆ Prediction

Expect more schema-level tuning controls exposed in Data Source settings and further MCP tool refinements; the entries don't show whether MCP will gain write or ingest operations.
