It's Digital Rebar Christmas in August. 🎄 v4.17 is here. It's built around the four pillars we see in our top operators: speed, vendor choice, change management, and scale. A few highlights: Speed: The new Operator View (preview) gives fleet operators a role based, no clutter dashboard. Less navigation, faster action, faster ramp for new team members. Vendor choice: Pipelines are now a top level object with a new "prepare" phase that runs before machines even exist. Better failure handling, easier to add new hardware vendors. Change management: Eikon (image deployment) is now GA and the default for image based deployments. That's critical as AI hardware accelerates OS and image churn. Content Archive is also GA: package your entire data center, bootstrap, security, and DR, as one known good artifact. Scale: Multi Site Manager's replication engine got a major performance and durability upgrade, built to exceed 50,000 server deployments. Plus a full UX refresh, including the most requested feature: light and dark mode. We just watched an operator go from nothing to fully running AI infrastructure in under 20 minutes. That's the bar. Watch the full breakdown 👇 Want the details for your environment?

Would you try to use #AI in your everyday operations processes? In this video, an operator asks an AI assistant to help manage bare metal, configure a server, and recover a failure. It goes about as well as you would expect. rackn.com/blog/ai-isnt-enoug…

Two spaceship crewmembers. One black hole. And yet the real enemy is a VMware licensing limit. This situation is fictional but the challenge behind it is real. To get started on these steps, schedule a demo with us today: rackn.com/schedule/ #VMware #Broadcom #BareMetal

"Redfish is a standard" Until an OEM changes it⚠️ Dell pre-implemented a breaking iDRAC 10 change before the spec updated. Boot order broke silently. Digital Rebar handles it. Homegrown scripts don't. rackn.com/blog/redfish-api-w…
