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 Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.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

The meta-package ships almost nothing, which is exactly what a version-pinning shim should do

The tidymodels package is a loader and version pin for the modeling framework's core set rather than a place where features live. Its entire changelog consists of updated dependency versions, adjustments to how tidymodels_prefer() resolves name conflicts against other packages, and the occasional addition of a package to the core set — workflowsets in 0.1.3, tailor in 1.4.0. The most recent releases moved the package's own code from the magrittr pipe to R's base pipe and patched a bug where some attached packages were omitted.

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 Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.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

◆ Current state

The tidymodels package is a loader and version pin for the modeling framework's core set rather than a place where features live. Its entire changelog consists of updated dependency versions, adjustments to how tidymodels_prefer() resolves name conflicts against other packages, and the occasional addition of a package to the core set — workflowsets in 0.1.3, tailor in 1.4.0. The most recent releases moved the package's own code from the magrittr pipe to R's base pipe and patched a bug where some attached packages were omitted.

◆ Where it's heading

Release cadence tracks the ecosystem rather than any roadmap of its own: a version bump when member packages release, a tidymodels_prefer() rule when a new conflict appears — DALEX::explains() over dplyr::explains(), recipes::update() over other update() methods. Additions to the core set are the only structurally interesting events, and there have been two in seven releases. Everything else is plumbing that exists so a single library() call attaches a consistent set of versions.

◆ Prediction

The next release will most likely be another version-set update, with any new core package the only thing worth noting. Feature news for this framework will keep arriving in the member packages, not here.
