The Wiz: The Super Soul Musical "Wonderful Wizard of Oz" is a musical with music and lyrics by Charlie Smalls (and others) and book by William F. Brown. It is a retelling of L. Frank Baum's children's novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900) in the context of contemporary African-American culture. It opened on October 21, 1974, at the Morris A. Mechanic Theatre in Baltimore, and moved to Broadway's Majestic Theatre with a new cast on January 5, 1975. The 1975 Broadway production won seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical. It was an early example of Broadway's mainstream acceptance of works with an all-Black cast. It has had revivals in New York, London, San Diego, and the Netherlands, and a limited-run revival was presented by Encores! at New York City Center in June 2009. A big-budget film adaptation of the same name was released in 1978, with Ted Ross and Mabel King reprising their stage roles. The Wiz Live!, a television production of the stage musical, was broadcast on NBC in December 2015.

- Wiz - Netography Fusion
You will see 2 Wiz context integrations in the Fusion Portal (Wiz and Wiz-2). The newest version is Wiz-2. Wiz-2 is built as a NetoFuse module, available for both cloud an on-prem deployment, and has added issue and network exposure handling, along with the flexibility of using NetoFuse transforms to customize the context fields. Both versions will be available for a brief period of time while existing users migrate to the new version, and then `Wiz-2` will be renamed `Wiz` in the Fusion [...] The Wiz context integration provides enriched asset context to Netography Fusion from the Wiz Cloud Security Platform. It gathers vulnerability data about the cloud assets in your environment from the Wiz API, and adds that as Context Labels in Netography Fusion. # Use cases ## Reduce investigation time [...] The Wiz integration can take many hours to run (up to a day) the first time it executes due to the large number of vulnerabilities that may exist within Wiz in total. This will result in a context deadline exceeded error being reported by the Portal when the integration is run by a user in the Portal manually, either during the initial Create and Run step, or when making changes thereafter.
