What’s new in IBM Robotic Process Automation with WDG Automation 20.10.2?
In this version, the WDG Automation platform has new updates and also some corrections that will have a positive impact, therefore further improving the user experience during the process of developing and executing bots. If you missed all the news from version 20.10.1, check them out here.
On-Premises Version
The option for installation using the on-premises mode is available. This allows the entire process to be done without the need of any type of internet access for the environment where the tool is installed. With the option to install without internet access, it is no longer mandatory to inform the license identification, since its validation is done through the licensing service of WDG Automation. The use of the tool is restricted only to RPA resources that do not require any type of communication with the internet, these resources will be functioning normally. However, commands and services that require some type of internet communication will be inoperable when using this installation mode. This mode is ideal for environments that, for security reasons, do not have external communication, thus avoiding the risk of attacks and invasions when using WDG's process automation system.
