4.3.167.1

Release Date: 10th Nov 2025

New Features

Release Activity Checklists & Attachments

Checklists and file attachments have been introduced within release milestones and phases, enabling more detailed progress tracking. Users can now attach supporting documents or evidence directly to release activities for improved auditability.

Enov8 AI Assistant (Beta)

The Enov8 AI Assistant now supports integration with external LLMs such as OpenAI and Gemini, allowing organizations to connect their own AI models. Additionally, it can leverage existing report data to deliver deeper insights and context-aware assistance.

ServiceNow Add-On (Orchestration Manager)

A new ServiceNow Add-On has been introduced to streamline change management between ServiceNow and Enov8. The add-on listens to payloads triggered by ServiceNow Business Rules for any change requests and automatically creates corresponding records in Enov8, ensuring real-time synchronisation and improved workflow automation.

Enhancements

Automated Status Synchronisation

The automated synchronization of environment instance statuses has been improved. Status updates now depend on the Monitoring flag—synchronization occurs only when monitoring is enabled, ensuring more accurate and relevant environment updates.

Bulk Edit

The Bulk Edit capability has been extended to the Configure Environments, Manage Events, and Service Requests modules, enabling users to efficiently perform bulk updates across multiple records.

Connectivity View

The Connectivity View has been optimized for handling large datasets and now includes a Focus Mode. This feature allows users to emphasize specific nodes and edges while dimming others, improving clarity and usability.

Version Drift - Deployed Version Report

A new enhancement in the Deployed Version Report highlights version discrepancies across environments, helping teams quickly identify and resolve configuration drift.

Data Management - Execution Console Enhancement

The Execution Console within Data Management has been enhanced to display real-time health status indicators for both the Worker Bee and the associated data source, improving visibility into system operations.

Microsoft Teams Plugin Enhancement (Orchestration Manager)

The Microsoft Teams integration has been enhanced to support webhook connectivity via Script Mode instead of the traditional Webhook URL mode. This update enables greater flexibility and security in configuring Teams notifications. Additionally, the plugin now supports configuration for multiple class alerts, allowing broader and more customisable alert management across environments and release.

Word Wrap in File Explorer (Orchestration Manager)

The File Explorer within the Orchestration Manager now supports word wrap mode, making it easier to view and analyze lengthy log files without horizontal scrolling.

Scheduling Alerts (Orchestration Manager)

The scheduling functionality has been enhanced to automatically send an email notification when a schedule is disabled, ensuring improved visibility and awareness across teams.

Script Download Feature (Orchestration Manager)

The script download capability has been updated to include the script name in the downloaded file, making identification and management easier.

4.3.166.2

Release Date: 8th July 2025

New Features

Enov8 AI Assistant (Beta)

Enov8 is proud to introduce its new AI Assistant—a smart, context-aware feature designed to enhance user experience across the platform. Users can now select from specialised assistants tailored to key product areas such as TEMS, TDM, VME, BBOT, and Integration. These assistants are trained to provide intelligent guidance, streamline navigation, and support day-to-day usage within each domain.

Currently in beta, the Enov8 AI Assistant is available by request and requires additional configuration for activation.

DataView

DataView: Booking, Mining & Generation

The DataView feature has been completely redesigned to support advanced Data Booking, Data Mining, and Data Generation capabilities. Data Engineers can now configure tailored DataViews, allowing end users to efficiently search, subset, and book available data based on specific criteria.

If sufficient data is not available, users can seamlessly initiate data generation to meet their needs. These enhancements significantly improve test data accessibility and empower teams to manage data more effectively across the testing lifecycle.

Environment Availability

We’ve introduced a comprehensive Environment Availability Dashboard that provides detailed visibility into uptime metrics across selected environments and systems. This feature supports better decision-making for IT operations and environment managers by helping teams identify underperforming areas, respond quickly to issues, and take informed actions to improve stability and service levels.

Environment Availability Report

System Outage Duration Report

As part of our ongoing enhancements to operational visibility, the new System Outage Duration Report enables teams to track and analyse environment instance outages using incident data from the selected date range. The report captures total downtime per instance, calculates system availability percentages, and provides business downtime metrics to support impact assessment and prioritisation.

CMDB Register

A new custom data widget has been added to the Custom Dashboards, enabling users to visualise a detailed breakdown of their systems. The report presents a hierarchical view of Systems, their Environments, Instances, Microservices, and associated Components. This interactive layout helps users quickly understand infrastructure composition, identify configuration details, and improve visibility across environments.

Automated Status Synchronisation

As part of this release, we’ve introduced an automation feature that improves status synchronisation between microservices, infrastructure components, and environment instances. When the status of a microservice or system infrastructure component changes—such as going down—the status of the connected environment instance is automatically updated. This ensures that the environment health accurately reflects underlying issues in real time, enabling teams to quickly detect and respond to disruptions without manual intervention.

Enhancements

Full Screen Mode for File Explorer (Orchestration Manager)

The File Explorer in Orchestration Manager now supports full screen mode, allowing users to expand the code area for an uninterrupted, focused editing experience.
