EasyDCIM v1.20.0

EasyDCIM v1.20.0: Ready for Windows Server 2025 and beyond!

There's something genuinely satisfying about working with tools that seem to know exactly where you're heading, and help you get there without the usual stress. That's the spirit behind EasyDCIM v1.20.0, our latest release shaped not by surface-level news or hurried trends, but by real, grounded conversations with the people who rely on it every day. We once again put our energy where it counts: the kind of real-world upgrades you'd expect from a trusted platform, resulting in effortless server management, steadier and more dependable operations, and a daily workload that feels just a little less heavy. Here's how we fine-tuned EasyDCIM to fit even better into your natural rhythm. OS Installation: Windows Server 2025: Ready When You Are By far one of the most requested features, we're proud to announce full support for the automated installation of Windows Server 2025. In the past, EasyDCIM made it simple to deploy Windows Server 2022 and earlier versions, but the next generation of Windows Server technology called for a fresh approach behind the scenes. We made the necessary adjustments so you can now install it without lifting a finger. Everything you'd typically configure manually, like time zone, system language, disk partitioning, admin credentials, network interfaces, or post-install routines, can now be handled automatically. Windows Server 2025 was heavily shaped by feedback from enterprises handling hybrid and cloud environments, with Microsoft calling it one of their "most customer-driven" server releases yet. It brings a handful of notable improvements: a stronger focus on security enhancements, major performance upgrades with the new SMB over QUIC support, and improved clustering features for high availability. All of this means smoother performance, tighter security, and better scalability for modern infrastructures. IPMI Integration: Easier Access, Sharper Insights Running servers shouldn't keep you guessing, and thanks to these upgrades, it won't. We've expanded the scope of IPMI integration to bring several new components: Lenovo XClarity and H3C UniServer Support Equipped with two new drivers, EasyDCIM can now use the industry-standard Redfish protocol to automatically detect key server details along with processors, memory, disks, network interfaces, and sensors. Server control is built right in - whether it's powering on, shutting down, or performing a reboot. And if you're keeping an eye on energy, power usage metrics are also easily accessible for the entire machine. Both integrations offer console access via noVNC sessions: with Java KVM console support for Lenovo XClarity and HTML5 for H3C UniServer. Expanded Supermicro Console Support While we're on the subject of HTML5 console integration, support for Supermicro servers has been extended to include newer models as well, ensuring a more seamless, plugin-free experience whenever direct access is needed. Together, these updates bring a level of control and visibility that take the heavy lifting out of handling all kinds of server hardware. IP Address Management: Tagging Made Even Smarter If you're someone who thrives on keeping things organized, you'll appreciate that we've pushed the flexibility of tags management even further. Beyond devices, ports, sensors, and clients, you can now assign tags to subnets and VLANs too. This simple but powerful addition means you can classify, search, and report with even greater precision, creating a more organized, readable network map that's easy to navigate even when your environment scales. Core Upgrades: Built for the Long Haul While you've been managing your servers, we've been making sure the engine behind EasyDCIM you rely on is even stronger and faster: We've upgraded the application framework to the latest stable version: Laravel 12.13, bringing enhanced speed, reliability, and maintainability. We've moved EasyDCIM to PHP 8.3 (up from PHP 8.1), ensuring even stronger security and better long-term support. When it comes to updating your platform, we've made it easy too. EasyDCIM and its agent support a hands-free update process handled through new dedicated scripts prepared by our team. For guidelines on how to download the updater scripts and everything else you need to know before taking the first step, we recommend checking out this useful guide. Need a little help along the way? If the update feels tricky at any point, or if something doesn’t go as expected, just drop us a message. Our support team is ready to jump in on workdays between 8 AM and 5 PM (GMT+2). From Thoughtful Changes to Real Results We believe the best kind of progress isn't the loudest, but one that simply fits, without demanding a complete rethink of how you work. EasyDCIM v1.20.0 is about quietly taking away functional overwhelm, letting you do more with less hassle, and preparing you for what's ahead without ever feeling rushed. Because real growth doesn't happen overnight. It happens when the tools you trust keep making the next step feel natural. So here's to steady, confident progress, one well-placed improvement at a time! View the Changelog!

EasyDCIM v1.15.0

Security at the core of EasyDCIM v1.15.0

Security seems to be one of those buzzwords that’s impossible to avoid these days. Scroll through LinkedIn, or browse an industry blog, and you’ll find someone promoting the latest and greatest ways to secure your business. We can’t speak for every flashy new tool on the market, but here’s what we can promise: the tools we’ve added to the new EasyDCIM v1.15.0 release weren’t picked at random. They’ve been carefully selected, meticulously tested, and built to deal with direct threats you face daily - not just to follow the latest trend. System Security: A clear view of your setup For years, EasyDCIM has set the bar high with features like IP-based restrictions for backend and API access, as well as client area controls for when integrated with external billing systems such as WHMCS or HostBill. But when it comes to security, standing still is just another way of falling behind. That’s why version 1.15.0 debuts a dedicated System Security section with clear and actionable advice based on configuration checks handled across EasyDCIM at 5-minute intervals. This specific area acts as your guide to keeping your system safe, highlighting: Successful security checks so you can rest easy knowing the basics are covered. Warnings that guide you toward proactive improvements. Critical alerts that demand immediate action to prevent potential vulnerabilities. The same critical knowledge is served up in bite-sized form directly on the dashboard and within the menu view, offering you a quick and easy way to see if anything requires your immediate attention. Advanced firewall with ModSecurity When it comes to fighting off unauthorized access, the new support for ModSecurity adds an advanced layer of defense for Debian-based systems. This web application firewall (WAF) engine goes beyond the basics in more ways than one: Automatic HTTP traffic filtering blocks requests from unknown IP addresses. Predefined IP whitelisting ensures smooth operation for trusted connections. Customizable rules let you define additional safe IP addresses to meet your specific needs. Default Coreruleset v4.10.0 brings high-tech protections right out of the box. All proven practices in one place We know security can feel overwhelming, especially when the sheer volume of tips leaves you more confused than informed. That’s why we’ve combined all expert security insights for EasyDCIM into one easy-to-follow guide. Clear, practical, and step-by-step, it’s built to give you the confidence to create defenses that stand the test of time. Why now? Because cybersecurity threats aren’t rare disruptions anymore - they are the new normal. Bots are getting smarter, breaches more frequent, and the line between safe and vulnerable grows thinner by the day. It’s no longer about if your defenses will be tested, but when. Keeping watch and staying ready has become a core part of doing business today. Fedora Server support extended Security might lead the charge in EasyDCIM v1.15.0, but the work done in other areas is just as noteworthy. The update to OS Installation extension has brought a new alternative to the choice of system templates, allowing Fedora Server 41 to be installed automatically. Streamlined and efficient, this Linux-based operating system proves to be the perfect foundation for modern server setups. And with all this talk about security, let’s not forget that Fedora Server 41 includes SELinux (Security-Enhanced Linux) along with other advanced security features designed to safeguard your system from vulnerabilities and unauthorized access. Confidence beyond EasyDCIM In tune with the main focus of this release, let this serve as a crucial reminder: the modules behind EasyDCIM’s core integrations have lately received a critical set of security updates, resulting in the following new releases: Dedicated Servers For WHMCS v2.4.1 Colocation For WHMCS v2.2.1 Dedicated Servers For HostBill v1.3.7 Colocation For HostBill v1.0.2 We can’t stress this enough - update your modules to the latest versions to ensure you are fully equipped with all the latest improvements. It’s a simple step that goes a long way in keeping your setup well-protected and up-to-date. From hype to help Our approach is simple: we believe in solutions that don’t just look good on paper but actually make your life better. While the buzz around security continues to grow, we prioritize what genuinely works in real-world settings - the tools you can trust to protect your day-to-day operations, your data, and your peace of mind. So, if security is on your agenda - and it should be - EasyDCIM v1.15.0 is your new best friend. View the Changelog!

EasyDCIM Features - Monitoring

Business Guides

Lead the way with EasyDCIM’s proactive monitoring toolkit

From small startups to large enterprises, our clients all agree on this – managing a data center is a job that never takes a break. Whether you are overseeing a few servers or dealing with a spread-out infrastructure, keeping everything running smoothly may often feel like juggling too many balls at once. And in a world where downtime can lead to frustrated clients and lost revenue, the stakes are high. That’s where EasyDCIM’s monitoring feature shines - it’s a solution designed to make your life easier, smarter, and more efficient. Instead of constantly putting out fires, you have the tools to anticipate issues and keep things running like clockwork. Let’s explore why monitoring with EasyDCIM goes beyond being just a helpful accessory - it’s a crucial safety net, or better yet, a business-saver for data centers of all sizes. Never miss a beat No data center is the same, and EasyDCIM understands that. Our platform includes a built-in feature that lets you configure automated system monitors, each with its own condition to trigger alerts for devices, network ports, power ports, and sensors. Want a single monitor to cover many devices or set various conditions for one specific monitor? With the extension called Advanced Monitoring For EasyDCIM, which vastly expands your basic monitoring options, it’s all in your hands. By using tags to apply system monitors across multiple devices and defining as many unique conditions as required, you gain the freedom to shape your monitoring setup to fit your business needs perfectly. There’s no need for overly complicated setups. EasyDCIM keeps things simple and efficient, offering you clear data at a glance. Whether it’s device's ping, network's total traffic, power usage or sensor reading, everything is right in front of you in an easy-to-understand format. That means less time spent sifting through technical details and more time focusing on your core business. Keep yourself in the loop Imagine being able to spot a problem before it turns into an emergency. When you use EasyDCIM, that’s exactly what you get. You can receive real-time alerts through most popular streams like email, Slack, and Telegram, that allow you to act quickly, preventing downtime and keeping your customers happy. Think of it as having a personal assistant who never sleeps, constantly ensuring your servers are running smoothly. But monitoring isn’t just about spotting problems. It’s also about making sure your infrastructure is operating at its best. EasyDCIM provides performance insights that help you fine-tune your systems for peak efficiency. The result? Fewer hiccups, smoother operations, and ultimately, a better experience for your clients. Let’s put all of this into a clearer perspective to help you picture the ultimate goal: Monitoring is based on five-minute intervals, during which EasyDCIM collects e.g. traffic data from network ports. This real-time insight may come in particularly useful when you set a monitor for a high threshold on either inbound or outbound traffic. Why? Because a sudden spike could indicate that an unwanted visitor is trying to launch a DDoS attack or some other type of intrusion. Luckily, as soon as it happens, you will be notified about it via preferred channel, allowing you to react promptly and avoid serious consequences - sometimes as critical as temporarily freezing the entire data center's operations. Now, can you see just how vital monitoring is for safeguarding your infrastructure? The bottom line With so many real threats sneaking around your data center, having a reliable, easy-to-use monitoring solution is simply a must. And with a system that adapts to your business as it grows over time, EasyDCIM isn’t just a short-term fix - it’s a smart investment in the future of your operations. So, whether you are looking to optimize your daily workflows, advance your productivity levels, or simply gain some peace of mind, EasyDCIM’s monitoring feature is the partner you didn’t know you needed - until now. Keep exploring!

Rackdog Case Study - EasyDCIM

Racing ahead with EasyDCIM’s automation – Rackdog Case Study

Information always matters in the reality of data center management. Whether it relates to the ins and outs of a given market sector or the complex systems underpinning your infrastructure, being in the know just pays off. At EasyDCIM, we deeply appreciate the value of staying in the know - especially when it comes to understanding how others view our efforts and rate the services we provide. To ensure we’re always improving, we turn to the best source possible: our customers. One such customer is Shon Manov, Co-Founder of Rackdog, who recently shared insights into how partnering with EasyDCIM has shaped their business journey. A quick glance at the background To give more context on Rackdog’s operations, we asked Shon for a brief introduction to his company. Here's the summary he provided: “Rackdog is an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provider, offering bare metal, cloud compute, colocation, and IP transit. We cater to companies at any stage of their business cycle, from startups to enterprises, ensuring we meet their requirements and exceed expectations. At the moment we offer services in Ashburn, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, and Sydney but our network stretches far further than just these locations.” Of course, we couldn't resist a follow-up question about the company’s further development. Shon was quick to let us in on their plans to continue expanding their locations and global network, and to keep enriching their offer with new features and services. The move to EasyDCIM Now that we had a clearer picture of Rackdog’s business, we went on to inquire what led Shon to choose EasyDCIM. He pointed to the easy to use interface as a major factor, due to the challenges they themselves had been facing, and taking into account their clients’ common struggles: “Before using EasyDCIM, keeping track of inventory was not always the most efficient and created extra work for us. EasyDCIM also solved the problem for us of automating many of the tasks our clients used to have to open a support ticket for, such as virtual console and OS reinstallation.” When asked if they had ever tried out any alternatives to EasyDCIM, Shon explained briefly: “We used a previous solution, but ultimately it came down to their development team not actively pushing new updates and missing key features that we needed.” Reaching new heights Knowing that this stagnation in progress led Rackdog to our doors, we couldn’t help but wonder what the biggest wins for Rackdog were after switching to our services. Shon didn’t hesitate to share how the transition fueled their efficiency and let them experience a substantial improvement in automation: “EasyDCIM has helped us immensely by automating the provisioning and installation process of dedicated servers. We can now provision bare metal servers in under 20 minutes, including OS installation, without any human intervention. It has also made our support team's job easier with reducing the time it takes to troubleshoot and track down devices when we need to do physical maintenance on hardware.” Curious about which specialty on the EasyDCIM’s menu stood out most for Rackdog, we asked Shon to name his favorite. This turned out to be a quite demanding task, given the many features that made an actual difference in the company’s everyday workflow. Still, Shon managed to fish something out of the bag of the most appreciated functionalities: “It’s hard to pick one feature to call our favorite, but the automatic OS reinstallation has to be one of the most used and important features for us.” Looking to the future Whenever there’s an opportunity to ask bold questions, we jump at it eagerly. This time we couldn’t miss it either, so - encouraged by what Shon had shared up to that point - we asked him this: Would you recommend EasyDCIM to other companies? His honest response made us smile from ear to ear, and by us we also mean Konrad Keck, our CEO & Founder, for obvious reasons: “Certainly, EasyDCIM is not only a stable and reliable DCIM platform but also has a great support team (shout-out to Konrad - I know we are definitely not always the easiest to deal with =))” Like any forward-thinking entrepreneurs, Rackdog’s leaders are definitely not content to rest on their current success. As they continue to push boundaries and grow, we’re excited to support them every step of the way. And the question of whether we’ll continue delivering the tools they need to stride confidently doesn’t even call for an answer - we’re already committed to making it happen.

EasyDCIM v1.13.0 Release

From MikroTik VLANs to Ports & Sensors pages – EasyDCIM v1.13.0

At the core, EasyDCIM is about one thing: making data center management less confusing, because we all know that complexity is the enemy of progress. As technology races ahead, so do our ways to accomplish that goal. The latest EasyDCIM v1.13.0 release throws a few more tools into the mix, including the MikroTik driver and new data segments on assets, to keep your daily business operations both simple and well-regulated. VLAN Management for MikroTik Devices If you are working with MikroTik devices running RouterOS, your workload is about to get a whole lot lighter. Guided by user insights, we have upgraded our Switch Management extension with a new driver that makes this process easier to handle inside EasyDCIM. No more jumping between systems or command lines to make changes - everything is now accessible from one place. Here’s what you can do: Set up a new VLAN or clear up old configurations. Assign VLANs to specific network ports, making it easy to segment, visualize, and control traffic across your network. Shut down network ports or brought them back online. Adjust port speeds based on network needs to fine-tune performance on an ongoing and dynamic basis. Why does this matter? As networks grow in size and complexity, having a clear overview of your VLAN structure is crucial for optimizing traffic and security levels. Now, you can quickly identify which VLANs are assigned where, helping you avoid any misconfigurations that could lead to performance issues or downtime. Ports & Sensors: Smarter Network Hardware Management When you're managing multiple devices, especially in larger setups, finding a specific port or sensor can sometimes feel like looking for a needle in a haystack. To address this, we’ve introduced two new sections in the Assets menu: Sensors and Ports. Instead of navigating through each device's summary, these new sections present a clear, searchable list of all ports and sensors in your network. How to make the most of this update? Instantly filter and search for specific ports or sensors - no more guessing which device a port is tied to! View monthly traffic graphs to track network usage and identify any potential bottlenecks or irregularities. See at a glance summaries of how many ports are currently active or inactive, helping with quick diagnostics. Perform key actions - be it enabling, disabling, editing, or deleting - on any port. Why is this important? In large-scale environments, managing hundreds or even thousands of ports and sensors can become overwhelming. By bringing these elements together in one interface, you no longer have to dig through multiple layers of menus just to find what you need. Instead, the information is centralized, with filtering tools that help you zero in on the specific hardware you’re looking for. This is particularly useful when troubleshooting or planning future upgrades. Stay Notified with Telegram Stream Integration Being notified of critical events as soon as they happen is crucial in any network environment, but constantly logging into the platform to check for updates can be inefficient. That’s where our new Telegram stream feature comes in. By integrating EasyDCIM with Telegram, you can receive real-time notifications directly on your phone or desktop, making it easier to stay on top of important events without being tied to your dashboard. Whether it's system alerts, monitoring results, or network issues, you'll get updates pushed straight to your Telegram channel. Why Telegram? Telegram is not only widely used but also known for its speed and security. Its lightweight nature makes it ideal for receiving fast alerts, which is why we chose to pair it with EasyDCIM. As one of the fastest-growing communication platforms, it’s well-suited for administrators looking for efficient and reliable communication tools. Keep exploring! The updates you see here, plus more in EasyDCIM v1.13.0, are all built around one central goal: making your job easier. Whether you're assigning VLANs to MikroTik devices, keeping a close eye on ports and sensors, or staying effortlessly connected through Telegram notifications, these new features bring clarity and control to your data center like never before. It’s all about cutting down the routine so you can focus on the bigger, more strategic goals. Are you in? View the Changelog!

Time to bring another cause for celebration! Not that long ago, EasyDCIM marked its own ten-year milestone in the rapidly growing DCIM industry. Now, we are back with a brand-new release that pays special respect to the 20th anniversary of Ubuntu. This is all thanks to a new system template dedicated to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS brought at the heart of EasyDCIM v1.12.0. But the celebration doesn't stop there - the update comes packed with a range of new tools and enhancements ensuring the platform stays fully current with market standards and never falls short of the expectations of even the most demanding users. Welcoming "Noble Numbat" on board The new system template for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is no doubt one of the most anticipated features of EasyDCIM v1.12.0. "Noble Numbat" is particularly noble because it’s an LTS version, meaning it offers long-term support covering five years, with options to extend even further. But it’s not just about longevity. Ubuntu 24.04 LTS brings a variety of new features, from a revamped installer to improved system security, making it a solid choice for beginners and veterans alike.

Moreover, with the latest GNOME 46 desktop environment and a refreshed Application Center, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is as user-friendly as it is powerful. The launch of OS Installation v2.0.8 extension means you can now enjoy a brand-new template designed specifically for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. From configuring your time zone and language to handling essential first-boot scripts with ease, this update ensures every installation step is streamlined and hassle-free, going above and beyond to enhance your workflows. Expanding Redfish support Building on the success of the previous release, which introduced Redfish protocol support for ASUS servers, EasyDCIM v1.12.0 now extends this functionality to Fujitsu iRMC S5 servers. This means better automation and easier management, as the system can automatically detect key server details like model, label, and serial number, along with components such as processors, RAM, and network interfaces. Just like with other drivers provided by EasyDCIM via IPMI Integration, the updated extension comes ready to handle tasks like Power On, Power Off, and Reboot on Fujitsu iRMC S5 servers with just a click.
