- Search and build Smart Groups based on certificate issuer
- Skip additional steps during setup
- Restricted software enforcement is more consistent and reliable

Please Note: Standard Cloud Upgrades
Because Jamf Pro 10.14 requires an upgrade to your Java version, all standard cloud customers will be upgraded together during the mass upgrade plan outlined below. This means that standard cloud customers cannot request an early upgrade for this specific release.

Cloud Upgrade Schedule
Your Jamf Pro server, including any free sandbox environments, will be updated to Jamf Pro 10.14 based on your hosted data region:

Hosted Region Begins Ends
ap-southeast-2 Aug 2 at 1400 UTC Aug 2 at 2000 UTC
ap-northeast-1 Aug 2 at 1500 UTC Aug 2 at 2100 UTC
eu-central-1 Aug 2 at 2200 UTC Aug 3 at 0600 UTC
eu-west-2 Aug 2 at 2300 UTC Aug 3 at 0100 UTC

Isn't there a maintenance session scheduled for the same time as the update, are you performing them in tandem?

Also, normally cloud customers get more than 4 days notice of an update, what gives?

I'm guessing because of the java update requirements they're doing more of this all at once, because of shared tenants and whatnot.

Hi @jbutler47, great catch. @emily is right: the maintenance window and the upgrade window are one and the same.

The Java update put abnormal pressure on our timeline for this release so we sent that maintenance notice 9 days before the cloud upgrade window to give sufficient heads up. We were still finalizing our launch timeline so we had to keep that one generic. The cloud upgrade schedule you see above is the same window but relabeled as a product upgrade window which includes Jamf Pro 10.14 and Java.
