If I had to map it to a technology, I'd map it to all the MSC server apps in Microsoft Server Suite…but web based and with cloud services. Our product is appropriate for any home, office, or business as a comprehensive solution for IT or in an environment that needs to have turnkey solutions to specific IT needs not addressed by their current technology. Currently, we primarily replace Sonicwall, Cisco, and Microsoft SBS. We'd like to be able to do that as a CentOS variant as well. Especially for individuals migrating to Linux who need easy to use administration. We take a whole rack of IT junk and make it manageable under CentOS. 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 and much, much more 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 On Fri, Jan 10, 2014 at 5:21 PM, Karanbir Singh <mail-lists at karan.org>wrote: > On 01/11/2014 12:06 AM, David Loper wrote: > > ClearCenter and ClearFoundation are interested in starting a CentOS > > variant called 'ClearCenter Marketplace for CentOS'.
