Description

CentOS Linux is a community-driven distribution that is built from resources made available to the public through Red Hat or CentOS repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Its primary goal is to maintain functional compatibility with RHEL, while the CentOS Project focuses on modifying packages to eliminate any upstream vendor branding and visual elements. CentOS Linux is available at no cost and can be freely redistributed. Each version of CentOS is supported until the corresponding RHEL version reaches the end of its general support lifecycle. New versions of CentOS are released following the rebuilding of new RHEL versions, typically occurring every 6-12 months for minor updates and spanning several years for major releases. The duration of the rebuild process can range from a few weeks for minor updates to several months for significant version changes. This approach ensures that users benefit from a secure, dependable, and easily maintainable Linux environment that remains predictable and reproducible over time, fostering a strong community around its use.

Description

Self-service, remote deployment of operating systems such as Windows, CentOS, ESXi, and Ubuntu on physical servers transforms your data center into a bare metal cloud environment. This Metal-As-A-Service (MAAS) solution enables provisioning for a variety of systems, offering on-demand server capabilities alongside remote edge cluster management. With comprehensive infrastructure monitoring and discovery features, it seamlessly integrates with tools like Ansible, Chef, Puppet, SALT, and Juju, ensuring rapid installations from scratch. Supporting VMware ESXi, Windows, CentOS, RHEL, and Ubuntu, it allows for the creation of customized images with pre-installed applications, as well as configurations for disk and network settings. The platform utilizes an API-driven approach for essential services such as DHCP, DNS, PXE, and IPAM, while a REST API facilitates streamlined provisioning processes. Furthermore, it incorporates LDAP user authentication and role-based access control (RBAC) to enhance security measures. Hardware testing and commissioning are integral parts of the solution, which is designed to deliver the quickest operating system installation times in the industry, thanks to its highly optimized image-based installer. MAAS is compatible with all certified servers from leading vendors and efficiently discovers servers located in racks, chassis, and broader data center networks, while also supporting major system BMCs and chassis controllers. The combination of these features allows organizations to manage their infrastructure more effectively and drive operational efficiency.
