What's coming in Cloudron 9.0 (was 8.0)

[Thedurancode]

When is this version coming I am excited for the multi host feature.

@Thedurancode right... This post is already quite a bit old. We are currently working on 7.4 - https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/8269/what-s-coming-in-7-4 . TBH, I am not sure when we will work on this. We have been removing features from 8.0 and implementing them into more immediate releases.

Is it possible to move the multihost feature to 7.4?

[jayonrails]

@AniTexs No, because 7.4 is already outdated.

(7.4) Implement LDAP+2FA across apps - See https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/issues/705 .

We deprecated this in favor of OIDC support. OIDC support with automatically bring in 2FA in a more portable, user friendly and robust way.

This pretty much only leaves multi-host for 8.0

@girish And maybe this. https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/4473/event-to-webhooks

@girish Is there an ETA for 8.0 ?
Really looking forward to it.
I want to integrate it to our webhost as multihost is the only thing holding us back

[girish]

@AniTexs multi-host will take quite a bit. Our immediate release is 7.5 first - https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/9180/what-s-coming-in-7-5 . We have no time line for 8.0 really.

@girish Please take a look at https://github.com/libsql/sqld which looks perfect for keeping multicloudron features in sync across systems.

It's from OSS libSQL which is a fork of SQLite which doesn't accept improvements easily.

It also enables automatic replication to S3 storage, ie. run sqld with --enable-bottomless-replication parameter.

Lots of goodies!

Just found this, looks like the repo might not be active but maybe it can be referenced or even forked:

YugabyteDB is a high-performance, cloud-native, distributed SQL database that aims to support all PostgreSQL features. It is best suited for cloud-native OLTP (i.e., real-time, business-critical) applications that need absolute data correctness and require at least one of the following: scalability, high tolerance to failures, or globally-distributed deployments.

Regarding Multi-host, has there been any progress in this regard? I'm interested to know how it would all work. For instance:

• Can you still access each dashboard at its respective my.domain.com?
• Do we add the other servers to a dashboard/server of our choice or will it reside at a different subdomain by itself as an app (ex: dash.domain.com)?
• Users: How are they managed/displayed? Will there be one user directory for all servers and any changes are synced in case a server goes offline/wiped?
• Will we need to reinstall apps that rely on the Cloudron user directory if directories are merged/shared?

I know it's still a long way to CR 9.0, but it's something that I've been thinking about now that I have more than one server. Thanks!
