I’m concerned about the timely deployment of patches within our organization. How does ANSA address this concern?
Answer 7 ANSA guarantees that any patches made available from Microsoft are available to its users within 12 hours of that release, assuming no custom testing is necessary. For other vendors, ANSA will turn around all available public patches within that same time period (12 hours). As a hosted solution, ANSA retains permanent staff to constantly oversee and maintain the Global Update Repository, which is the source from which patches are ultimately deployed to all ANSA users. Once the patches are made available to ANSA users, it is the responsibility of the system administrators to deploy them via the ANSA framework provided.
