We are very happy to announce the immediate availability of CloudBolt version 5.0.  The platform’s new features include:

  • powerful new service catalog functionality to facilitate complex, multi-tier app deployments

  • deeper out-of-the box integration with technologies such as VMware, OpenStack, AWS, Azure, Infoblox, Puppet and Chef
  • ability to define arbitrary server actions so DevOps experts can provide simple buttons for users to perform complex operations on servers
  • ability to snapshot VMs from the CloudBolt user interface
  • increased control for administrators, including the ability to set rate-based limits and set limits on environments in addition to groups and handlers
  • significant UI improvements, including adding social aspects to the interface
  • even deeper extensibility – additional trigger points for hooks/actions
  • revamped docs, now made public: https://docs./
  • new trigger points for power on/off, rebooting servers and post-order completion process have been introduced and currency units are no longer limited to USD
