What is healthyR.ts?

healthyR.ts keeps adding time-series helpers, then quietly breaks the old ones to modernise them.

A time-series companion in the healthyverse family, shipping helper functions in batches: growth-rate vectors, an ADF test and auto_stationarize() in 0.2.11, then five log and differencing transforms in 0.3.0, and a random-walk plot in 0.3.2. Alongside the additions runs a steady stream of breaking cleanups — invisible returns dropped, R 4.1 required for the native pipe, and ts_ma_plot() refactored onto ggplot2 facets with its xts output removed and its return value cut from six items to two.

What is ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus?

RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.

RecoveryManager Plus is a backup-and-recovery tool for Active Directory and Microsoft 365, and it is the most feature-active of the ManageEngine set here. Recent builds add real backup coverage — AD sites and subnets, Entra ID local admin passwords, S3-compatible repositories, SIEM audit forwarding, and Entra ID BitLocker recovery keys — alongside CVE patches and RemCom agent hardening. Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.

healthyR.ts keeps adding time-series helpers, then quietly breaks the old ones to modernise them.

◆ Current state

A time-series companion in the healthyverse family, shipping helper functions in batches: growth-rate vectors, an ADF test and auto_stationarize() in 0.2.11, then five log and differencing transforms in 0.3.0, and a random-walk plot in 0.3.2. Alongside the additions runs a steady stream of breaking cleanups — invisible returns dropped, R 4.1 required for the native pipe, and ts_ma_plot() refactored onto ggplot2 facets with its xts output removed and its return value cut from six items to two.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads, both consistent. The functional one is coverage of the stationarity workflow — transform, test, auto-stationarize, plot — assembled function by function rather than as a single API. The structural one is convergence on ggplot2 and tidy conventions, retiring xts objects and multi-object return lists as it goes. The package is not afraid to break return shapes to get there, so upgrades are not drop-in.

◆ Prediction

Expect the remaining functions that still return xts objects or bundled lists to get the same ggplot2-only treatment, since ts_ma_plot() was refactored on exactly that rationale.

M2.5

RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.

◆ Current state

RecoveryManager Plus is a backup-and-recovery tool for Active Directory and Microsoft 365, and it is the most feature-active of the ManageEngine set here. Recent builds add real backup coverage — AD sites and subnets, Entra ID local admin passwords, S3-compatible repositories, SIEM audit forwarding, and Entra ID BitLocker recovery keys — alongside CVE patches and RemCom agent hardening. Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is coverage expansion: methodically extending what can be backed up and restored across on-prem AD and Entra ID, while broadening cloud storage targets and operational integrations. The dependence on Microsoft's own PowerShell modules is the cost of that coverage, and 6322 shows where it bites — a stale module on the customer's side takes the product down mid-enumeration. Feature builds and pure-fix builds alternate at roughly a two-month cadence, so a single-issue build reads as a gap between feature cycles rather than a slowdown.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued expansion of Entra ID and cloud-native backup coverage and more storage-target options, with security patches folded into each build; the next build carrying a Features section is due on the cadence this feed has held.
