Recently named Best Cloud Management Solution by the 2020 SIIA CODiE Awards, this platform release builds on the company’s promise of delivering unparalleled time-to-value for enterprise IT and developers. Features in this release include improved user navigation, expanded support for Microsoft Azure, and integrations with Veeam Software, Inc., SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC , and Cisco Systems, Inc.‘s UCS.

“We continue to listen to our customers and enhance the cloud management platform of their choice with updates to address their pain points,” said Rick Kilcoyne, chief product officer. “The significant increase in 9.3’s self-service capabilities, accelerated networking and provisioning, new integrations with multiple in-demand platforms, and elimination of many manual processes empower CloudBolt users to better allocate resources to drive more business value. 9.3 continues CloudBolt’s tradition of always innovating and adapting with the needs of our users top of mind.“

The company’s platform already supports management of 20+ private and public cloud environments through a single pane of glass, accelerates workload delivery with self-service provisioning, and enables consistent, standardized governance through centralized automation and orchestration. The features and capabilities in the 9.3 release build on this foundation to address a range of cloud management challenges.

Capabilities include:

• Improved user experience
  V9.3’s enhanced user navigation makes the platform more intuitive, providing more information to onboard new users quickly and accelerating time to value.

• Microsoft Azure management made easy
  With support of Shared Image Gallery (SIG) in v9.3, customers can manage their Azure environments efficiently with less manual effort. These images can also be managed globally by grouping and versioning them while sharing across subscriptions and tenants using Azure RBAC.

• More security with simplified SSO/SAML2 setup
  v.9.3 simplifies SSO configurations, helping customers completely secure their IT environment faster. Also, it integrates with any SAML2 compliant identity provider to support SSO. It provides additional support for Okta and more choices to follow in subsequent releases.

• Backup and recovery with Veeam
  A Veeam UI extension for v9.3 enables users to view a server’s backups stored in Veeam and restore them to AWS or Azure. This means users can now access Veeam functionality without having to learn how to use Veeam itself.

• Central support for Cisco UCS
  It features a UCS blueprint that allows self-service provisioning of service profiles, enabling organizations using Cisco UCS to achieve the benefits of a self-service model.

• Integration with SolarWinds IPAM
  It integrates with SolarWinds IP address management (IPAM). This ensures that when a user provisions a server with CloudBolt, an IP address provided directly by SolarWinds gets assigned to the server, greatly increasing efficiency and eliminating the need for any manual intervention.

The v9.3 is available.
