<!-- Add the related story/sub-task/bug number, like Resolves #123, or remove if NA --> **Related issue:** Resolves #46567 and Resolves #46737 Solution for the agressive polling: - no WNS (although we could add it later as another avenue for notifications) - fleetd advertises a sync capability, persisted as `mdm_windows_enrollments.fleetd_sync_capable` - The management session relaxes the DMClient poll (`poll_schedule_relaxed`) - When an MDM command is queued, `has_pending_commands` flips, the next orbit check-in returns `WindowsMDMSyncRequest`, and fleetd runs `deviceenroller` to deliver it immediately - older fleetd versions keep the 1-minute poll Docs: https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/pull/46780 Changes to osquery_perf and any additional changes after loadtesting will be done in a separate PR. # Checklist for submitter If some of the following don't apply, delete the relevant line. - [x] Changes file added for user-visible changes in `changes/`, `orbit/changes/` or `ee/fleetd-chrome/changes`. See [Changes files](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Contributing/guides/committing-changes.md#changes-files) for more information. - [x] Timeouts are implemented and retries are limited to avoid infinite loops ## Testing - [x] Added/updated automated tests - [x] Where appropriate, [automated tests simulate multiple hosts and test for host isolation](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Contributing/reference/patterns-backend.md#unit-testing) (updates to one hosts's records do not affect another) - [x] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually ## Database migrations - [x] Checked schema for all modified table for columns that will auto-update timestamps during migration. - [x] Confirmed that updating the timestamps is acceptable, and will not cause unwanted side effects. - [x] Ensured the correct collation is explicitly set for character columns (`COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci`). ## fleetd/orbit/Fleet Desktop - [x] Verified compatibility with the latest released version of Fleet (see [Must rule](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Contributing/workflows/fleetd-development-and-release-strategy.md)) - [x] If the change applies to only one platform, confirmed that `runtime.GOOS` is used as needed to isolate changes - [x] Verified that fleetd runs on macOS, Linux and Windows - [x] Verified auto-update works from the released version of component to the new version (see [tools/tuf/test](../tools/tuf/test/README.md)) <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * On-demand Windows MDM sync: servers can request immediate delivery of queued MDM commands to Windows clients; Orbit triggers client-side sync on Windows. * **Enhancements** * Orbit throttles per-device on-demand sync to avoid excessive runs. * Server reconciles and persists device poll schedule (fast vs relaxed) and exposes consolidated host MDM state (awaiting-configuration + has-pending-commands). * **Tests** * Added tests covering host config state, pending-command flows, poll-schedule toggling, and on-demand sync behavior. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->

Open-source platform for IT and security teams with thousands of computers. Designed for APIs, GitOps, webhooks, YAML, and humans.
What's it for?
Fleet gives you a single system to secure and maintain all your computing devices over the air. You can do MDM, patch stuff, deploy software, and verify anything, all from one place, across every OS your organization uses.
Fleet works directly with data and events from the native operating system, down to the bare metal. Strong diagnostics let you investigate errors on end-user devices and collect accurate audit evidence in minutes.
Get started
You can try Fleet out for yourself, or grab time with one of the maintainers to chat.
Is it any good?
Fleet is used in production by IT and security teams managing thousands of devices. Many deployments support tens of thousands of hosts, and a few large organizations manage 400,000 or more.
Supported platforms
- Linux (all distros)
- macOS
- Windows
- Chromebooks
- iOS and Android (BYOD or corporate-owned)
- Amazon Web Services (AWS)
- Google Cloud (GCP)
- Azure (Microsoft cloud)
- Data centers
- Containers (kube, etc)
- Linux-based IoT devices
Infrastructure as code
Manage your fleet with GitOps, or use the GUI, REST API, webhook events, and the fleetctl command-line tool.
Linux support
First-class support for all major distros. Linux gets the same attention and visibility as macOS and Windows.
Visibility and compliance
Fleet can report on hundreds of attributes across your devices and ships with CIS benchmarks for macOS and Windows and comprehensive operating system, hardware, and software data. Check out the table reference documentation to see what's available.
Open by design
Fleet is open source and transparent about what it can and can't see. End users can verify exactly how the agent works and what data their company collects. Fleet collects only the data needed to manage and secure devices, not private activity like keystrokes, emails, or webcams.
Good neighbors
Ready-to-use, enterprise-friendly integrations exist for Snowflake, Splunk, GitHub Actions, Vanta, Elastic Jira, Zendesk, and more. Fleet also works with tools such as Munki, Chef, Puppet, Ansible, CrowdStrike, and SentinelOne.
Lighter than air
Fleet is lightweight and modular. You can use it for MDM without using it for security, and vice versa. You can turn off features you are not using.
Free as in free
The free version of Fleet will always be free. Fleet is independently backed and actively maintained with the help of many amazing contributors.
Longevity
The company behind Fleet is founded (and majority-owned) by true believers in open source. The company's business model is influenced by GitLab (NYSE: GTLB), with great investors, happy customers, and the capacity to become profitable at any time.
Fleet Device Management's company handbook is public and open source. You can read about the history of Fleet and our commitment to improving the product.
Chat
The Fleet community is full of kind and helpful people. Whether or not you are a paying customer, if you need help, just reach out.
Contributing 
Contributions are welcome, whether you answer questions on Slack / GitHub / LinkedIn, improve the documentation or website, write a tutorial, give a talk at a conference or local meetup, give an interview on a podcast, troubleshoot reported issues, or submit a patch. The Fleet code of conduct is on GitHub.
License
The free version of Fleet is available under the MIT license. The commercial license is also designed to allow contributions to paid features for users whose employment agreements allow them to contribute to open source projects. (See LICENSE.md for details.)
Fleet is built on osquery, nanoMDM, Nudge, and swiftDialog.
