The Landscape systems management tool helps to monitor, manage, and update the entire Ubuntu infrastructure from a single interface. Part of Canonical's Ubuntu Advantage support service, Landscape brings intuitive systems management tools combined with world-class support.
Landscape is the most cost-effective way to support and monitor large and growing networks of desktops, servers, and clouds; to reduce the IT team’s efforts on day-to-day management with Landscape; and to take control of the infrastructure.
The Landscape operator (charm) will deploy Landscape Dedicated Server (LDS). The charm must be connected to other charms to be fully functional. It supports a client/server approach where Landscape agents are deployed on the service host, to allow its management and monitoring.
As part of Canonical’s Reference Architecture, this service is deployed by default, where the whole infrastructure will be managed and monitored through Landscape. The following table displays the features that help Landscape to be part of the Charmed OpenStack infrastructure:
