In doing so without updating a configuration management system to ensure that we're retesting, we're redeploying, and we understand that these changes have taken place. So on the device side we're dealing with applications that run on the particular device, that have to be configured, data, different security parameters, different operating system parameters, different hardware, different firmware, communicating with different sensors, and then finally, different networking.
