Bring different platforms, operating systems and infrastructure types together into one management platform with RackN solutions.
Seamlessly connect your Infrastructure into a single IT estate
These are a few of our most popular solutions.
Microsoft Windows
Digital Rebar supports Windows provisioning via the Image Deploy content packs in the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Library.
Portable image deploy provides fast, repeatable, single-boot installation of Windows with robust post-provisioning operations.
VMware
Digital Rebar’s VMware-certified solution helps you automate the provisioning of ESXi and VMware Cloud Foundation.
Important features include Secure Boot (TPM), Hardware Validation & Conformance, and Zero-Touch installation.
Linux & Open O/S
Open Boot Environments enable a wide range of Linux distributions including RedHat, Centos, Ubuntu, Debian and others.
Digital Rebar supports both secure network boot and image based deployment including on bare metal.
Multi-Cloud
Digital Rebar connects multiple IaC tools such as Terraform and Ansible into automation chains.
Modular components and transparent workflows make it easy to build and extend provisioning and decommission actions.
MULTI-VENDOR Solutions
Digital Rebar’s IaC library contains what you need to automate almost any environment. Don’t believe us? Try it yourself today!
Here are other common vendors you’ll find in the Digital Rebar IaC library. Descriptions of Digital Rebar’s advanced and enterprise capabilities are at the bottom of the page.
Advanced Capabilities
Self-Service Cloud – Resource Pooling API
Digital Rebar Pooling API provides cloud-like self-service for users who want offer blocks of infrastructure without pre-assigning resources. Pooling integrates with Workflows, allowing customers to control exactly which actions are taken when systems are assigned and released.
Dynamic Contexts During Workflows
Digital Rebar allows automation to “move” from running on a target machine to the Digital Rebar Platform (DRP) server dynamically during Workflow execution. This enables operations teams to seamlessly mix environmental and system configuration such as network switches, inventory, service orchestration, and cloud platforms.
Integrated Multi-Site Manager for Distributed Infrastructure and Teams
Any Digital Rebar site can become part of a multi-site federation. Our patent-pending architecture both maintains site autonomy and creates regional and global management APIs. The managers also allow customers to synchronize their IaC components across their IT estate.
Seamless IPMI / Redfish / Vendor BMC Out of Band Management
Digital Rebar excels for Bare Metal with multi-vendor out-of-band management capabilities. Our proven integrations make it possible have a single automation interface for mixed environments.
Enterprise Features
Highly Available without prerequisites
Digital Rebar servers can be configured into Highly Available clusters without external dependencies. This allows customers to quickly enable robust automation features in any environment with minimal overhead.
Single Sign On (SSO) with Active Directory
The Digital Rebar Authorization and Authentication (Auth-n/Auth-z) integrates directly into other Single Sign On (SSO) systems such as Active Directory. This allows customers to maintain a single user management system.
Secure Boot enables trusted platform (TPM) infrastructure
Enabling Secure Boot Loaders ensures that only trusted operating systems are installed on customer systems. Customers enabling this feature get the benefit of both trusted platform features already available in most servers and completely automated provisioning.
Air-Gap Ready for the ultimate in autonomy and independence
Digital Rebar is designed as a zero-touch completely autonomous system without any external network dependencies; consequently, it is uniquely suited for the most secure data center environments.
Role Based Access Controls (RBAC) keep out unauthorized users
Digital Rebar security includes integrated RBAC to control user access based on a wide range of criteria. Critically, the RBAC system works with SSO modules to ensure that corporate access controls are always respected in customers’ data center environments.
Logging and Audit controls make compliance easy
Digital Rebar’s log streams capabilities provide the ability to feed critical activity into enterprise-wide analysis tools, such as Elastic, for a comprehensive view of system activity.
