Support for AWS Application Load Balancers

Abiquo 5.3 introduces support for AWS Application Load Balancers, as well as continuing with the support for Classic Load Balancers. 

Take a step forward by using AWS Application Load Balancers and benefit from high availability architectures, security, and hybrid models to help your company combine your public and private cloud resources.

Now you can easily select the type of Application Load Balancer when creating a new one and select an automatically created public IP address so that the load balancer is directly connected to the internet, as well as subnets from different availability zones. 

In addition, after creating the load balancer, you can edit it and modify the routing rules to manage the conditional actions as you wish, giving your company and customers the flexibility of creating your customized cloud assets. 

By working with Application Load Balancers, where the network loads in the public cloud, your company will gain both availability and stability.

The ultimate customization experience with Dynamic Dashboards

Check out the new Dynamic Dashboards on Abiquo’s Home view!

Abiquo 5.3 introduces this new feature in the UI so that users can customize their own dashboards and widgets.

A new catalog listing the dashboard widgets is now available to easily add them to the dashboard canvases and configure the widget parameters and options. Customize your Abiquo dashboards and work at your own ease.

Get advantage of a wide range of options to display such as choosing your preferred graphs and metrics. You don’t have to stick to a default design, make it your own!

The administrator has now the privilege to modify the default dashboard and make it available to all users, as well as being able to create new dashboards for each tenant enterprise. On top of that, admins can allow users to create their own dashboards. Gain flexibility, creativity and choice.

In addition, this version includes new graphs (billing line graphs) and new widgets (budget, monitoring, Idle volumes, RAM/CPU) to allow a greater choice of options for your own customization. Visibility of your cloud resources is now better than ever!

Easily obtain tailored billing data from public cloud providers

Abiquo 5.3 introduces new enhancements to obtain public cloud billing data, improving the performance of requests in the back end and adding more parameters and configuration to the API to support these improvements.

Companies can now get better performance, configuration, and flexibility on the processes of obtaining billing data from public cloud providers, being able to request billing data on-demand, as well as configure the properties for each request. This way companies can better organize and tailor the billing details and then keep better control and a more accurate billing track for each account.

Advanced filtering and pagination for VMs

Abiquo 5.3 improves the way for admins to capture VMs from hypervisors in private clouds by adding a new filter and pagination features to see the listing of VMs on a server, in the UI and via API. 

Now you can make it faster to onboard VMs into the platform and thus save administrators time on the process. 

The new filter works as easily as all the rest of filters within the Abiquo platform. Go to the private tab and simply type the name of the VM and you’re ready to go!

Create public subnets in AWS

Abiquo 5.3 enables the user to create more public subnets. Do you know what benefits you can get by using them? 

Public subnets can send outbound traffic directly to the internet, with a routing table that routes traffic to the internet gateway, being necessary for private networks to access the internet by using a NAT gateway in the public subnet.

Abiquo CMP allows you to create AWS subnets the easiest way, which will allow a private network to access the internet quickly and save your company valuable time in the process.
