End of Life for IE on Nodes hosted in Cloud Providers

Prev Next

Catchpoint’s extensive network of nodes, includes nodes hosted on Public Cloud providers like AWS, Azure, Alibaba, and more. We will be migrating all the nodes hosted on Public Cloud providers to CentOS (Linux) Platform on December 9, 2019.

**What does this mean? **

All tests will remain unaffected, and continue to work as they are today, except for Internet Explorer (IE) tests. Going forward you will not be able to run or schedule IE tests on nodes hosted in cloud providers.  Please find the complete list of affected nodes at the end of this article.

Please note, you may see different results in performance after the tests are switched to run on a different monitor other than IE.  Making this change does not impact point usage unless the test is moved from a Cloud Node to a Backbone Node.  To avoid any interruption please modify tests using these nodes, to use the Chrome monitor, or to alternative nodes in the same geographical region.

Please feel free to reach out to Catchpoint Support if you need further help with migration.
