Control-M MFT

Control-M MFT Enterprise
The following is a list of enhancements that are now available in Control-M MFT Enterprise:
- You can now authenticate internal users, external users, or both via any Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 identity provider and apply multifactor authentication and single sign-on (SSO), as described in Configuring IdP Authentication for Control-M MFT Enterprise Users.

Control-M/EM and Control-M/Server
Control-M/EM, Control-M/Server, Control-M/Agent, and all version-9.0.21.300 plug-ins now support Java 21 long-term support (LTS).
CyberArk Vault Integration
You can integrate Control-M with a CyberArk vault where you store and manage sensitive information (called secrets), such as passwords, access keys, or security keys for Control-M MFT or Application Integrator jobs. This integration enables Control-M/Agents to retrieve secrets from your vault only when they connect to your plug-in application servers and run jobs, so that sensitive information is not saved in Control-M components. To use a CyberArk vault, you must upgrade Control-M/EM to 9.0.21.300. For more information, see CyberArk Vault Integration.
Application Integrator
The following is a list of enhancements that are now available in Application Integrator:
- Support for CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) and Latin-1 characters in Control-M has been expanded to include use of these characters in Control-M Application Integrator, in job definitions, job attributes, job output, job logs, and job testing.
- XML and JSON responses in the system output and logs have been enhanced with improved formatting and structure.
- Control-M Application Integrator now uses Java 21 LTS in asynchronous job execution and increases the number of jobs that can run simultaneously on Linux (REST API up to 1000 concurrent jobs; CLI up to 300 concurrent jobs).
Control-M Integrations
The following integrations have been released since version 9.0.21.200:
- Control-M for AWS Lambda
- Control-M for OCI VM
- Control-M for Jenkins
- Control-M for AWS SNS
- Control-M for AWS SQS
- Control-M for OCI Data Integration
Automation API
Control-M Automation API now supports deployment of duplicate resource names in a job that contains a resource pool and a lock resource with the same name. This enhancement aligns Control-M Automation API with Control-M Web and Control-M Client, where duplicate resource names were already supported.
