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 Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.

What is mlr3proba?

mlr3proba is shedding weight as its survival work moves into sibling packages

mlr3proba provides probabilistic supervised learning for mlr3 — survival analysis, density estimation, and the measures that go with them. Recent releases are almost entirely upkeep: a distr6 fork to work around an upstream problem, an ooplah fix, a predict-type correction, and registration in mlr_reflections$loaded_packages. The one deletion is telling, with LearnerDensPenalized removed after pendensity left CRAN.

ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus vs mlr3proba: editorial side-by-side

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 Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.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.

mlr3proba is shedding weight as its survival work moves into sibling packages

◆ Current state

mlr3proba provides probabilistic supervised learning for mlr3 — survival analysis, density estimation, and the measures that go with them. Recent releases are almost entirely upkeep: a distr6 fork to work around an upstream problem, an ooplah fix, a predict-type correction, and registration in mlr_reflections$loaded_packages. The one deletion is telling, with LearnerDensPenalized removed after pendensity left CRAN.

◆ Where it's heading

The package is being pared back rather than extended. Its README now points at survdistr and mlr3cmprsk as matured alternatives for parts of what it covers, which reads as scope being handed off, while the Cox proportional-hazards autoplot arrived from mlr3viz in the other direction. Several fixes exist to route around dependencies that broke or disappeared, which is the recurring cost of building on a long chain of specialized CRAN packages.

◆ Prediction

The dependency churn suggests more consolidation — further reliance on survdistr and mlr3cmprsk, and more learners retired when the package underneath them goes unmaintained.
