After a longer time of “bugfix releases” only, the Eclipse Ditto team is once again happy to announce the availability of a new minor release, including new features: Ditto 3.6.0.

The most work in this release went into the enforcement/validation of a linked WoT (Web of Thing) “Thing Model” to make sure that a Ditto managed digital twin can only be modified in ways which are valid based on the defined WoT model.

But also other features like SSO in the Ditto-UI were added, so inform yourself in this blogpost about the changes in the new release.
