# Process Automation Updates
Also includes all Open Source updates from below
# Highlights
Sumo Logic Job Step Plugins: Now Sumo Logic users can automate operational tasks - such as retrieving logs for incident diagnostics - by integrating with a Sumo Logic instance. [Docs]
ECS Node Executor Plugin: Users can now run commands across multiple ECS containers in a single Job Step or from the Commands tab. This makes it easier to accomplish tasks such as retrieving time-critical diagnostics during an incident before containers are redeployed.
