AppControl Deepens Mendix Governance with Smarter Policy Insights and AI Search

June 30, 2025 – Blue Storm, the leading provider of Mendix governance solutions, today announced the June release of AppControl, delivering smarter policy insights, AI-assisted documentation, and improved oversight across the Mendix app landscape.

This update reinforces AppControl’s mission as the enterprise governance layer for Mendix—enabling platform teams to manage risk, enforce standards, and maintain control as app portfolios scale. With enhancements to policy transparency, access control, and revision oversight, the June release helps organizations govern more effectively without slowing innovation.

“Enterprises need more than monitoring—they need clarity, traceability, and control,” said Andrew Whalen, Founder of Blue Storm. “This release strengthens AppControl’s core governance capabilities to help platform teams lead with confidence.”

AppControl continues to evolve as the central governance layer across all stages of the Mendix lifecycle: Develop, Deploy, Monitor, and Control.

Highlights of the June AppControl Update

 

AI-Assisted Documentation Search
Platform users and administrators can now access documentation with intelligent, context-aware search—making it faster to interpret policies, workflows, and platform behaviors.

Granular Policy Results for Risk Clarity
Policy check COMP_0002 now returns a separate result for each vulnerable component, helping compliance teams understand and prioritize technical risk more precisely.

MPR v2 Model Support for Future-Proof Governance
AppControl now fully supports Mendix MPR v2 model files, ensuring forward compatibility with evolving Mendix runtime structures and deployment strategies.

Optimized Git Revision Storage
Git-based revision storage has been optimized, reducing infrastructure load while maintaining full traceability across releases and audits.

Expanded Oversight of Deployed Revisions
The system status dashboard now highlights any deployed revision that failed model processing or policy checks—making it easier to detect governance breaches before they impact users.
