CloudSmith covers the full infrastructure lifecycle — from day-zero cluster deployment to day-two operations, firmware management, and AI-assisted diagnostics. One platform, every stage.
Core Capabilities
Each capability ships as a module with a clean interface slot — compose only what you need, extend with your own modules, or contribute upstream.
Bootstrap Hyper-V failover clusters and Azure Local instances from a browser-based wizard. Define cluster topology, network configuration, and storage layout — CloudSmith handles the rest via a structured installation pipeline with full rollback support.
Real-time health dashboards aggregated from all nodes, storage paths, and workloads. Built-in alerting with configurable thresholds, alert routing, and integration with existing monitoring stacks via OpenTelemetry export.
Orchestrated OS and firmware update pipelines with live-migration awareness. CloudSmith drains workloads before patching each node, validates patch success, and surfaces a full audit trail of every update event across the fleet.
AI-assisted diagnostics surface probable root causes from event logs, performance counters, and cluster validation output. Natural-language queries let operators interrogate infrastructure state without deep PowerShell expertise.
Vendor-agnostic BMC management for Dell iDRAC, HPE iLO, and Lenovo XCC. Inventory hardware health, power status, and firmware versions across mixed fleets — without logging into each vendor console separately.
Capacity planning tools project resource consumption over time using historical usage trends. Model cluster expansions, estimate hardware requirements before procurement, and validate that new workloads fit before deployment.
Module Catalog
CloudSmith ships as a core platform plus independently deployed modules. Install only what your environment needs. All modules are open source under Apache 2.0.
Deploy CloudSmith to your environment in under 30 minutes — on-premises or Azure PaaS.
