    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for automatically creating device campaigns. A computing device first determines that a second version of a software package assigned to an existing device campaign has been uploaded to a data store. The existing device campaign can include an existing compliance policy applicable to individual IoT endpoints assigned to the existing device campaign. The compliance policy may specify that a first version of the software package be installed on the individual IoT endpoints. In response, to the change, the computing device can create a new device campaign that includes a new compliance policy applicable to the individual IoT endpoints assigned to the new device campaign. The new compliance policy may specify that the second version of the software package be assigned to the individual IoT endpoints.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for the controlling the amount of active updates that can occur during a given time on devices that are associated with tenants (e.g., organizations) and subtenants (e.g., sub-organizations) in a multi-tenant environment. In particular, each tenant and subtenant is assigned throttle corresponding to different update parameters (e.g., an amount of devices executing an active update, an amount of data to be downloaded during a campaign, a time for completing the update campaign, etc.). When an update campaign is established, the update campaign can define the different devices that are to be updated. In some situations, the number of active updates required may exceed the allotted resources for a given subtenant. When a subtenant requires additional resources than what is assigned to complete the update, the subtenant can borrow resources defined by the update parameters from a subtenant peer that has a surplus.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for separating creation of and executing of updated campaigns in multitenancy environments. For example, an organization can have a hierarchical structure such that a root organization includes multiple sub-organizations. A root organization administrator may create an update campaign for enforcing software policies on devices that are included in the sub-organizations. A sub-organization administrator can approve and define the execution schedule for when the devices included in the sub-organization can execute the update campaign.
