The modernized or modern architecture enabled Omnissa Workspace ONE UEM provides a faster resource deployment mechanism and an efficient deployment tracking experience.
Note: This chapter and its sub-topics apply to organizations transitioning to the modernized Workspace ONE UEM. If you are on a traditional Workspace ONE UEM version, you may notice that the features and functionalities described in the sub-topics of this chapter differ from those seen in your current product version. For information relevant to the traditional Workspace ONE UEM version, see Tracking and Monitoring Application Deployment.
Workspace UEM, previously, operated as a push-centric model, where installation commands were queued in the database upon publishing a resource. These commands were then released in batches, with devices fetching them to receive installation instructions.
With the introduction of the next-generation Workspace ONE suite, we have transitioned away from the queue-based system of releasing commands in batches. Instead, the device fleet proactively communicates with Workspace ONE UEM to receive commands. Devices independently check in at set intervals, undergo an evaluation to determine their state, and are provided with install or uninstall instructions to bring them to the required state. This new approach helps administrators eliminate assumptions about whether commands were queued, released, and how many were released.
Using the tracking features and in-depth statistics that the Workspace ONE UEM console offers, you can easily track and monitor the deployment progress of your apps and profiles, when you deploy and install them on your end users' devices and take the necessary actions for devices that require immediate attention.
The key features of the new deployment tracking experience include:
- Assignment Previews: Provides insights into device assignments and estimated time for delivering instructions. You can preview assignment changes before publishing the applications and profiles, allowing for better planning and management.
- Deployment Tracking Dashboard: Provides charts to enable real-time monitoring of application installation progress. You can interact with these charts, apply filters, view device-level installation statuses, and perform bulk operations on devices. The dashboard lets you quickly identify issues and take appropriate actions to ensure successful deployments.
A Note About this Chapter and its Sub-topics
This chapter has sub-topics discussing deployment tracking experience for public apps, individual internal app versions, and profiles. While you might notice similarities in the information presented across these sub-topics, the intention behind organizing the information into distinct sub-topics is to provide a comprehensive understanding of each resource type, highlighting its unique features, functionalities, and potential use cases.
