MAAS is an open source platform that provides a centralized environment for managing and provisioning physical servers as if they were cloud resources.
By turning complex tasks into automated workflows, MAAS helps teams move faster and focus on innovation instead of infrastructure.
Reduce costs and human error by automating the entire lifecycle of your machines, from initial setup to final decommissioning.
Treat your physical servers as a flexible, on-demand resource pool that can be provisioned and scaled instantly.














MAAS delivers the fastest OS installation times in the industry thanks to its optimized image-based installer.

Automatically discovers, inventories, commissions, and deploys physical servers. Through the server's baseboard management controller (BMC), MAAS can manage remote power and other out-of-band controls.
Use a cloud-like API to programmatically manage the entire hardware lifecycle as code. MAAS integrates with DevOps tools like Terraform, Juju and Ansible to automate, orchestrate, and model entire physical infrastructure deployments from a single workflow.
Execute extensive pre-commissioning tests to establish a performance baseline and verify the integrity of critical components, ensuring only compliant and healthy machines are provisioned.
Discover every PCI and USB device in every server. Inventory disk models and serial numbers. Provision machines based on specific configuration details to optimize your applications.
Configure server network interfaces with bridges, VLANs, bonds and addresses. Integrated, best of breed, highly available, open source DHCP and DNS.
Role-based access control (RBAC) and integration with LDAP, Active Directory or SAML for central identity management and single-sign-on (SSO) across multiple MAAS regions.

Private cloud
Effortlessly deploy and manage your ownprivate cloud infrastructure. Whether you chooseOpenStack for a robust and scalable solution, orMicroCloud for a lightweight and agile alternative, MAAS serves as the foundational infrastructure provider, streamlining the entire process from bare metal to a fully operational cloud environment.

Bare metal Kubernetes
Deploying Kubernetes directly on bare-metal servers (managed by MAAS) offers a significant advantage by avoiding the overhead of an underlying virtualization layer. This approach leads to superior performance and predictability for your applications. This architecture is particularly beneficial for high-performance computing (HPC).

Server automation and lifecycle management
Streamline the entirelifecycle management of your server fleet, from initial provisioning to eventual re-purposing. This automation ensures consistency, reduces human error, and significantly speeds up operations. Combine it withLandscape to automate security patching, application auditing, access management and compliance tasks across Ubuntu machines.

MAAS is freely available, open source software from Canonical. Support and commercial capabilities are available.
Get security, compliance, and support for full Ubuntu deployments managed by MAAS. This coverage is charged on a per-machine basis.
For deployments that don't include Ubuntu machines, MAAS support can be purchased as a standalone service.
To be eligible for MAAS standalone support, Ubuntu Pro is always required for machines hosting the MAAS controllers.
The pricing for standalone support for the non-Ubuntu machines managed by MAAS is as follows:
