The 3DEXPERIENCE platform on Cloud has been upgraded to the 3DEXPERIENCE R2022x FD01 level.

A brief summary of all the alterations done during this upgrade can be found below:
Geo Datacenter Location:
A new enhancement, which allows users to force the geo datacenter location has been promoted in this version of the tool.
This functionality can be availed using the command-line option “-dc” following which an apt datacenter can be selected from the dropdown so as to compute the Network Performance results with respect to this datacenter.
Note that the tool was already well equipped of computing the Network Performance in regards to the specified user location by implying the command-line option "-u". The new option "-dc" permits users to explicitly confirm their Network Performance parameters with respect to the selected geo datacenter.
Browser Setup - Use TLS 1.2:
One of the mandatory prerequisites for working with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on Cloud is to enable the TLS 1.2 setting.
However, the Cloud Eligibility Checker Tool showed this setting as disabled particularly when it was enabled along with the "Use TLS 1.3" setting.
This issue has been taken care of in the current version of the checker tool. Now, the status is aptly shown as OK (green check) at all times when the TLS 1.2 setting is enabled.
Changes as per 3DEXPERIENCE R2022x FD01 level:
In addition to the above improvements, the usual changes pertaining to the Cloud Upgrade have also been done in the tool. To name a few, the list of certified workstations is updated, the support for browser versions is updated in the tool as per the current stable release. Furthermore, the country-datacenter mapping list is made up to date. Along with this, the list of supported levels for 3DEXPERIENCE Open Software has been accordingly streamlined as per the newly introduced levels.
Hope that the above changes implemented in the tool prove useful for you.
In order to stay up to date with the brand new updates, it is very much essential to download the latest version of the Cloud Eligibility Checker Tool each time.
