Computingstack Uniview™ OpenStack Frontend Solutions

As from open source community, OpenStack is considered technology ready but not Enterprise ready. But this is fully expected! There are many areas that Open Source community is not suitable to and will not implement, hence last mile engineering is needed to meet complex business needs. Horizon is great for developers when it serves each components in a flat way without cohesiveness. Skyline emerged to replace, but when facing too many business variations when they are not technical, to develop enterprise ready portal is controversial and open source community would not be the choice.

Uniview has come into being to fill such open source gaps! There are multiple detailed aspects that Univew helps! The first vision of Uniview is UNIFICATION, i.e. One entry and No hopping! Uniview is comprehensive and inclusive to combine most desired features and functionalities into one platform. For most deployment, an OpenStack user often needs Horizon to manage a VM, Grafana to look into a metric, Datadog to manage and monitor bare metal infrastruture. The second improvements in Uniview is to provide fancy features such as metric graphic views, sophisicated wizards, innovative integration such as Kubernetes and Ceph dashbords. The last not the least is very desireable securiy utilities, for example an MFA setup with Horizon can be a daunting journey, and an encryption process will be intimidating process. Uniview has MFA and security encryption just simply a click away to have everything out of box. So Uniview will leave the major gaps and shortcomings behind to deliver an experiences to catch up proprietary software quality as mega clouds of such as AWS and Azure.

Missioned to tackle the key issue of OpenStack clouds: User Experiences

OpenStack is great but has major shortcoming, i.e. the user experience. Uniview is a wrapper that organize OpenStack user interface layer as per what a modern cloud is expected to be, regardless what backbends and their tech, enriched with many visual graphic views and dashboards; drag and drop, full tuned transparency of each process, and many wizards .

From "UP and Run" towards Industry Leading Cloud

OpenStack up and run has been fairly easy over last a few years industry efforts. However from up and run, toward a high end cloud such as AWS/Azure, a cloud over open source can be anywhere with different strategies of integration. Intos Portal is missioned to provide industry most organic integration suite to help open source clouds to match user experience expectation, which has been set high by leading public clouds. Immersive user experience, enriched comprehensive service offerings by one pane, everything just one click away, and a seamless user interface are imperative.

Uniview Portal is designed to perfectly tackle the challenges of integration by providing a way of branding your business, controlling how you want your infrastructure to be consumed, and one pane of glass of possibly numerous backend integrations, or just simply skipping many of those.
Uniview Cloud Portal is seamlessly integrated with cloud monitoring to provide one-stop experience, as the only solution in the industry to provide such an experience. Thin implementation gets rid of all lengthy requirements of such as Grafana etc of the 3rd party systems. Tenancy compute CPU, Ram, Disk and Network monitoring are just one click away. Besides monitoring, integrated Kubernetes dashboard provides users the best observability of 360 degree of clusters, nodes, pods, containers, configurations and services.

Security Utilities to Meet High End Infrastructure Needs

Intos Cloud Portal implements various security features out of box, such as utility of MFA, utility of disposable user credential, full encryption, security challenge questions etc., so your customers can stay safe.
With its implementation, Intos Cloud Portal has no major static data besides billing, rather delegating as much possible data management to security allotted Keystone. Intos Cloud Portal is positioned as a portal solution and maintains only interim data for self-service and user enrollment. Everything will be universally authenticated against Keystone. The security framework is built over organic part of OpenStack overall security by providing a data driven configuration with zero coding including project, user, group, roles, API policy compliance etc. Portal implements seamless MFA utility to integrate with Keystone, so admin and user can be just one click away to bind or remove MFA devices.

Operation Easy

Plug and play with major OpenStack distros so you can install Uniview Portal with a few configurations to bring up a docker service instantly. There are only minimal requirements of your current set up, through data setting with no complex configuration. For advanced features, the user can also have a progressive way of enabling the full spectrum of features such as customized user management, user recruiting, self-service, branding, and billing. The portal is distributed as dockerized image, so that a user can instantly get it up and run. Only 2 steps of installation would have turned your OpenStack infrastructures into a sense of Public Cloud

Computingstack Frontend only require generic API from Openstack backends. All the best desired features such as Billing, Kubernetes Dashboard, Security, User Enrollement will be just a click way.

OpenStack is a strong underlying for public clouds, but often costly engineering is required to be business viable. Uniview provides all that a public cloud needs by a single package with no need of budget on your own develpment or efforts of complex integrations which ofen lead to high operation cost. With Uniview, user recruitment/ registration, credit card validation, bill and invoice generation/query, automated payment through integrated popular payment Gateway, plus an AWS comparable console are out of box, so that within 30 minutes of setup, bare metal to cash flow is possible.
