Policies

Policies

A Policy is a collection of rules used to query Metaport and determine the state of a team's applications at any point in time. Policies are particular to a team and are run manually or set to run on a schedule. They can report on:

  • SSL certificate expiry
  • Application release version, environment (e.g. "Production") or release date
  • Aspects of operating system, language runtime or framework such as version, end-of-life and release date

A simple default policy "Overdue Apps" is automatically created whenever a new team is created. It reports on applications which haven't reported-in to Metaport for over a week. It is unable to be edited or removed.

Notifications

In addition to policy-based notifications, Metaport provides visual warnings in the UI itself when dependencies, components and SSL certificates are approaching, or have become, out of date.
