We’re pleased to announce that DreamFactory Enterprise beta is ready to download and evaluate in your own environment.

DreamFactory Enterprise is a new commercial software package that helps you provision, govern, and report on multiple DreamFactory instances. It also helps you run DreamFactory more efficiently on shared computing infrastructure. Simply put, it’s the easiest way to manage multiple DreamFactory instances across your development lifecycle. 

Here’s an overview of DreamFactory Enterprise and how it can help.

What is DreamFactory Enterprise?

DreamFactory Enterprise is a commercial software package that runs on any Linux server. It includes the free DreamFactory open source runtime for fast DreamFactory instance deployment and provides an administrative web console and commands that allow you to:

  • Logically group server clusters where DreamFactory runs in development, test, and production
  • Manage multiple instances of DreamFactory on the same server cluster
  • Import / export DreamFactory instances between dev, test, and production servers or VMs
  • Log and report on every API call with the “ELK” stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana)
  • Administer API call limits at the cluster, instance, and user level
  • Manage administrative ownership of each DreamFactory instance

To see it in action, check out this 11 minute demo video.

Who should use DreamFactory Enterprise?

DreamFactory Enterprise is for anyone who wants to manage DreamFactory instances more efficiently. This includes enterprise DevOps and Ops teams, software development agencies, systems integrators, independent software vendors (ISVs), managed service providers (MSPs), and infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) companies.

Why DreamFactory Enterprise?

DreamFactory, the open source project, provides a sophisticated REST API backend for your mobile, Web, and IoT applications. But how do you provision and manage multiple instances of DreamFactory across dev, test, and production? Or across multiple projects, business groups, or customers? That’s where DreamFactory Enterprise comes in.

DreamFactory Enterprise makes it easy to provision, govern, and report on multiple DreamFactory instances used across your development lifecycle–all from a single management platform. It provides centralized governance to enable super admins to institutionalize best practices and standards at the critical API layer and track conformance in operation. It’s the best way to ensure that your DreamFactory instances are fully managed, secure, compliant, and more predictable in cost.
