Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are described herein that are configured to enable a self-update. In some example embodiments, a method is provided that comprises receiving a communication from a data center update module, the communication comprising an expected agent version identifier. The method of this embodiment may also include determining whether the expected agent version identifier is equal to a current agent version identifier. The method of this embodiment may also include causing an application agent to perform a self-update in an instance in which the expected agent version identifier is not equal to a current agent version identifier.
