workload details
The volume of opened and handled SMT tickets decreased slightly in February is stable compared to the month before, but not significantly. The peak of requests in January and February 2023 is due to the large number of renew/issuing of PKI Certificates as the deadline to renew PKI certificates from T-Systems to CommisSign was the 31/01/2023. In February previous months. In April 2024, there were a lot of questions from users on Docker, Domibus migration, the FS plugin usage, Docker versions available for Domibus, AS4 connectivity test requests, conformance tests, requests to participate in the June 2024 Interoperability forum, feedback from AS4 conformant solutions companies (logos or product names to be updated on the Digital website), etc.
