ENHANCEMENTS

The mobilEcho Client Management Server is integrated with Acronis Access Server and built on
Apache Tomcat and PostgreSQL database for improved scalability and resilience.

removed; Access Gateway Servers (formerly mobilEcho File Access Servers) are now managed
directly within the Acronis Access Server web administration user interface.

settings previously in the configuration file are automatically migrated and are now managed
through the Acronis Access Server web administration user interface.
