ClearCenter Marketplace adds a web-based management interface to CentOS for the purpose of managing the Server, Network, Gateway, and Cloud for a home, small office, or business.
Server based items under web-based control include:
Directory Services via OpenLDAP for users and groups
Windows Networking
File Sharing services via HTTP, CIFS, FTP and others
Printer Services via CUPS
Photo Organizer
Bittorrent
MySQL
Web Server (LAMP)
SugarCRM, Wordpress, and other LAMP applications
FileServer antivirus
Mail Server
Email Antispam and Antivirus
Backup Server
and much, much more
Network based items under web-based control include:
DHCP and DNS Server
Incoming and Outgoing Firewall control
Port Forwarding and 1:1 NAT
RADIUS
SSH Server
VPN
MultiWAN
and much, much more
Gateway-based items under web control include:
Intrusion Detection and Prevention
Proxy services
WPAD control
Web Content Filtration
Gateway antivirus and antiphishing
Reports will exist in the web interface that allows for easy interpretation of data from the various services listed. In addition, privilege separation allows non-admins to view aspects of delegated control.
Lastly, the Marketplace adds a platform to which 3rd party application providers using open and closed technologies can write a graphical management app for the installation and configuration of their app.
For example, if Kaspersky wanted to be able to provide an alternative pattern file for antivirus than ClamAV (the default) they can have an app and sell their product in the marketplace. (think Apple Store/Google Play…but for servers)
We have all the sources ready to go and ready to build. Just let us know what is required to get them building against CentOS
