Unified Devices and Device Matrix
New JupiterOneUnifiedDevice
Through 2023 JupiterOne had a BETA feature called "Unified Devices". This feature was a prototype solution to the problem of representing a single device entity when multiple source device and host entities were present in JupiterOne. We learnt a lot from this BETA feature, and are now ready to replace it with a new and improved solution.
End of Life for unified_device
The original unified_device feature will be retired on 1st November 2024. From that point onwards you will no longer see unified_device entities in your JupiterOne environment. In addition the "Device Matrix" visualization will no longer be available.
New UnifiedDevice Entities
We are starting the process of rolling out the Generally Available version of the new UnifiedDevice entities. These are a set of new entities that replace the old unified_device entities, and are created in a more reliable way. We made a lot of changes to how these UnifiedDevices are created, correlated, and merged to produce a consistent view across your Device and Host entities in JupiterOne.
The rollout of the new UnifiedDevice entities is being done in phases, with an initial closed program where selected new and existing customers are being set up with the new entities.
By the end of 2024 we expect to have completed the rollout of the new UnifiedDevice entities to all customers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to do?
Nothing! unless you want to participate early in the rollout of the new UnifiedDevice entities and visualizations this is a feature that will be automatically enabled for all customers over the coming months.
If you are interested in participating in the closed program to get early access to the new UnifiedDevice entities and visualizations please contact your JupiterOne account team.
What will replace the Device Matrix visualization?
The Device Matrix visualization will be replaced by a set of new visualizations that help you understand the summary of devices and hosts in your environment. This is being rebuilt as a standard search component rather than a standalone visualization, bringing more power to the wider JupiterOne search experience.
