Multi Container Support for Docker Apps for Univention App Center

docker-logo-blog-header

Since the release of UCS 4.1 in November 2015, the App Center has supported Docker apps. These are applications in the form of Docker images that are deployed by the App Center in a Docker container.

We call these apps “Single Container Apps” because the App Center only supports one container per app. This functionality is sufficient for many apps.

Until now!

New: UCS Dashboard Facilitates Administrator Monitoring

In the UCS Dashboard app, we now have the first (beta) version of a new dashboard based on the Open Source solutions Grafana® and Prometheus.
