So how could we not back you up on this battlefield by going the extra mile to keep EasyDCIM&#8217;s support for the top alternative operating systems in peak condition? It is in precisely this way that our platform reached the release of <strong>version 1.9.1<\/strong>, further accompanied by the evolution of colocation support.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 18px; padding-top: 15px;\"><strong style=\"color: #212078;\">A real treat for CentOS ex-users<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When one of the best-loved and most popular free Linux systems is forced out of nowhere to pack its bags, and vanishes into thin air, replaced by pretty much a totally different architecture, one can easily imagine most of the community entering the state of utter confusion progressing to borderline panic. Expecting crowds of disoriented users rushing to google all possible alternatives to CentOS, we quickly put on our superhero capes and equipped EasyDCIM with <strong>new templates<\/strong> meant to allow the automatic installation of operating systems thought of as most likely to fill in the vacant spot. Remember how quickly <a style=\"color: #a32487;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.easydcim.com\/blog\/easydcim-v1-7-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>our poll<\/strong><\/a> revealed everyone&#8217;s favorite?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But implementing these templates is one thing. Keeping them closely fitted into the post-CentOS landscape is a whole other story, which today unfolds right before your eyes with the release of EasyDCIM v1.9.1. The <a style=\"color: #a32487;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.easydcim.com\/extensions\/os-installation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>OS Installation<\/strong><\/a> extension received a solid dose of code refreshments to deal with the <strong>9th<\/strong> generation of <strong>AlmaLinux<\/strong> and <strong>CentOS Stream<\/strong> in the smoothest manner possible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.easydcim.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/New-OS-Templates-EasyDCIM-v1.9.1.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3285\" src=\"https:\/\/www.easydcim.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/New-OS-Templates-EasyDCIM-v1.9.1.png\" alt=\"New OS Templates - EasyDCIM v1.9.1\" width=\"1920\" height=\"947\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Moreover, the spectrum of OS templates has been stretched to new levels after developing support for <strong>Fedora 36 Server<\/strong>.

Like many of its kind, this one has emerged mainly due to COVID-19. When the pandemic swept the world, it changed the rules of the game once and for all, pushing thousands of companies outside the comfort zone in order to stay afloat in this competitive marketplace. With more and more employees working from home, and the explosion of our virtual interactions, <strong>the colocation route<\/strong> makes now more sense business-wise than ever.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Expanding the colocation-related capabilities of EasyDCIM, therefore, felt like the only right direction for the platform to grow in. Consequently, in version 1.9.1, all data center owners are assisted by <strong>new actions<\/strong> when handling colocation orders:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Enable\/disable traffic aggregation ports<\/li>\n<li>Delete RRD files with graphs and traffic data<\/li>\n<li>Remove the activity log entries<\/li>\n<li>Unassign network ports\/colocation devices<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.easydcim.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/New-Colocation-Management-Actions-EasyDCIM-v1.9.1.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3284\" src=\"https:\/\/www.easydcim.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/New-Colocation-Management-Actions-EasyDCIM-v1.9.1.png\" alt=\"New Colocation Management Actions - EasyDCIM v1.9.1\" width=\"1920\" height=\"947\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But introducing these options didn\u2019t seem functionally enough to call it a day. That\u2019s why we took it even a tad further and enhanced the EasyDCIM\u2019s client area with <strong>a list of network ports<\/strong> assigned to each colocation (with instant access to numbers behind data consumption), as well as a brand-new section specifically for <strong>adding and removing rDNS records<\/strong> within the colocation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.easydcim.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Colocation-rDNS-Management-EasyDCIM-v1.9.1.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3282\" src=\"https:\/\/www.easydcim.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Colocation-rDNS-Management-EasyDCIM-v1.9.1.png\" alt=\"Colocation - rDNS Management - EasyDCIM v1.9.1\" width=\"1246\" height=\"612\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Looking at how well the colocation data center market is doing today, would it actually be too bold of a move to jump on the bandwagon, and see for yourself where it gets you?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 18px; padding-top: 15px;\"><strong style=\"color: #212078;\">Still to make friends with Debian 11?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We know there\u2019s a lot on your plate already, but as someone who cares about you a lot, we feel compelled to make sure that <strong>migrating to Debian 11<\/strong> hasn&#8217;t slipped too far down your to-do list.
