Hey! Does your systems management software:

  • Take control of an avalanche of packages from a huge list of sources?
  • Move that software, updates and systems through multiple controlled environments?
  • Lock down the content in your software repositories?
  • Ensure your systems get only the packages they need, during a maintenance window?
  • Push updates and security fixes to thousands of systems in a single click?
  • Ensure that new systems consume your products based on your business rules?

That's what Katello does!

Platforms:
  • Fedora 15-x86_64, 16-x86_64
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

Katello is here to help you take control of your software and your systems in an easy-to-use and scalable manner. It offers a modern web user interface that scales from a small setup with 10 systems to a large installation of thousands of systems across various geographies. Katello can pull in content from remote repositories, local directories and ISOs. You can then organize that content into repositories that are easily searchable, filtered, manipulated and controlled in a locked-down container called an Environment. Below is an example showing 'Dev,' 'Test,' and 'Prod' environments:

Katello integrates the open-source projects Pulp, Candlepin, and Foreman with a modern Rails front end and a Python CLI to make it easier than ever to manage your systems and content the way you do business.
