Hi, today we are discussing a new topic: Network Requirements for PowerShell Scripts and Win32 Apps Coming to the Microsoft Intune. As you all know, Microsoft Intune is a cloud service that is the best for deploying applications. The latest update for Microsoft Intune is ongoing this year.
With the retirement of Edgeio, updated CDN endpoints are required for deploying Win32 apps and PowerShell scripts. According to sources from Microsoft Intune, a significant update is the retirement of Edgeio on December 27, 2024.
The Content Delivery Network (CDN) provider will no longer be available for delivering content after that date. With this new update CDN endpoints are essential for delivering apps and scripts to devices. They serve as access points for data distribution, ensuring smooth and secure communication.
