* Mitigate the randomness of throttle deployments
* Evaluate the change during throttle deployment |
A customer can field test new components, not necessarily of production quality, with limited exposure. For example, test Beta product versions. |

Beta updates
NOTE: We only publish DATs to this site when there is an active Beta product version deployed.
|
The CommonUpdater3 site is used to publish pre-production engine and pre-production V3 DATs for customers that want to evaluate them in their environments. It also contains the V2 DATs, V3 DATs, and MED DATs for ENS only. So, the source repository in ePolicy Orchestrator can't be changed to CommonUpdater3 because other product resources are not present. The recommended action is to create a Pull task that pulls the .1 DAT content from the CommonUpdater3 site.
