Request MAAS features here. Example use cases are helpful. Explaining how this helps the broader community builds momentum. In that light, you can review and upvote features here – and hopefully explain why you’re upvoting.

This category is hosting the tutorials that will be hosted on https://maas.io/tutorials

This category gives notice of MAAS features, tools, and methods that have been – or soon will be – deprecated. The plan is to indicate versions and configurations, as well as links to related documentation and instructions.

UX & Design category is a place to collect explorations, ideas, suggestions and feature requests for our MaaS-related products, focusing on the user experience and on the interface.

If you think the docs need something, this is the place to suggest it: snippets of text, ideas, requests, suggestions – like a “Feature Request List” for docs.

Welcome the MAAS docs

Here, you can share your own performance observations. We’re committed to improve the performance of MAAS. It helps if you let us know – quantitatively – where you’re experiencing bottlenecks.

The Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) has announced the end-of-life of its DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server software, which means it will no longer provide official support or updates for the software. While the software will continue to function, it will become increasingly vulnerable to breakage, security vulnerabilities, and other issues over time as the software ages.

MAAS is Metal As A Service, a service that treats physical servers like virtual machines (instances) in the cloud.
