Summary
These releases expanded cloud onboarding and coverage visibility, strengthened Canvas workflows, and introduced improved monitoring capabilities.
Cloud onboarding and coverage
- Subscription coverage visibility — administrators can compare approved subscriptions with available current-period cost data and identify missing coverage.
- Subscription overview — a dedicated overview presents verification status, import state, required actions, and coverage totals.
- Clearer data readiness — Factor Fifty now communicates when complete customer-wide spend cannot yet be verified.
- Monitoring enrolment — administrators can enrol Azure environments into monitoring and retry unsuccessful enrolments with clearer status reporting.
- Private-preview provider support — onboarding, inventory, documentation, and financial visibility were introduced for an additional cloud provider in private preview.
Canvas and infrastructure management
- Improved Azure organisation — resources are presented using their resource-group and network hierarchy, making larger environments easier to navigate.
- Canvas resource search — resources can be located more quickly within complex environments.
- Safer imports — expanded matching, validation, placement, and dependency handling improve the adoption of existing infrastructure.
- Stronger promotion workflows — environment ordering, revision tracking, comparison, and promotion handling were improved.
- Resource management improvements — resources can be duplicated or moved between supported groups with better validation of their connections.
Reliability improvements
These releases also included fixes across onboarding, inventory imports, cost calculations, generated configuration, deployment sequencing, and cloud-provider integrations.
