## Description

* * *

A new toggle, `strongConsistency`, has been introduced. When set to true, it prevents late-arriving measurements from being shown as the most recent data for a device, regardless of their actual arrival time.

For details on how to enable it and how it works, refer to [Managing data](https://cumulocity.com/docs/standard-tenant/managing-data/#latest-value).
