MUMBAI, India, Oct. 5 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202647115259 A) filed by Oracle International Corporation on September 25, 2026, for Agent Management In A Cloud Environment.
Inventors include Panwar, Kanishk; and Pathrose, Sneha.
The application for the patent was published on October 02, 2026, under issue no. 40/2026.
Abstract: A unified security agent manager plugin within a virtual machine compute instance manages at least one agent installed within the compute instance of a cloud environment. The plugin periodically receives agent inventory information, where the agent inventory information identifies (i) a plurality of platform types of the agent, and (ii) for each platform type, one or more deployable versions of the agent. The plugin selects a platform type from the plurality of platform types. The plugin compares the one or more deployable versions corresponding to the selected platform type with a version of the agent currently installed in the compute instance. If the version currently installed in the compute instance is older than the one or more deployable versions, the plugin fetches an agent object corresponding to a deployable version from an object storage repository, and updates the version currently installed in the compute instance to the fetched deployable version.
