Description
The existing system operations and management tool (SMA) was not designed with large clusters and auto scaling groups in mind. It is difficult to manage and use effectively in the cloud. This goal will move the most important capabilities of SMA into the designer studio while enhancing them to be cluster-aware. The capabilities will also be secured using standard Pega7 security for better control over access.
By the end of this goal the following will be accomplished for 7.2.2:
