Nastel XRay Shared Viewlets

         Shared viewlets were introduced in 1.2 and in this example, we are sharing MQ
         statistics data collected by Nastel Navigator and streamed to Nastel XRay from
         Nastel AutoPilot. This viewlet can be shared as a webpage, or as an iframe on a
         corporate Intranet site.
24
Nastel XRay Machine Learning Enhancements

        These are some examples of the new Machine Learning data views in Nastel XRay
        1.3.

AutoPilot Policy Integration

          With Nastel XRay 1.3 with Nastel AutoPilot Su31, In addition to events and
          metrics, which have been available for some time, you can now view policies and
          sensor information directly in Nastel XRay.

26
Nastel XRay Mobile Improvements

         The Nastel XRay application for IOS and Android provides access to the data being
         collected, regardless of source, on your mobile device.

27
Named WGS Connection Definitions

        User Login in Nastel Navigator has been simplified for users that do not know
        Workgroup Server details. They can select from a list of WGS connection
        definitions that are managed by the Administrator.

28
Team Viewlets and Global Setting

         Viewlets can be shared with teams so when they login, they automatically get the
         data they need to see. When combined with global settings, the user experience
         is very simple, right from the start.

29
Custom Attributes for Navigator Objects

         Custom properties can be added to objects. These attributes can be displayed in
         the viewlets, used as filters and are published to Nastel AutoPilot where they can
         be used in policies. And as noted earlier, the policy data and events could be
         forwarded to Nastel XRay and viewed there or as a shared viewlet in back in
30       Nastel Navigator.
Using Shared Viewlets in Nastel Navigator

        Custom properties can be added to objects. These attributes can be displayed in
        the viewlets, used as filters and are published to Nastel AutoPilot where they can
        be used in policies.

31
Nastel Navigator REST API

       The REST API in Nastel Navigator provides access to view and change the objects.
       It also supports administration of the environment and changes to security
       objects.
