Houston is a web-based management layer developed by 45Drives, built on the open-source Cockpit Project. Houston was developed to simplify server management, regardless of administrator experience level.

Love the command line? No problem — there’s a Houston tab for that! But if you’re looking to get out of the command line, Houston allows you to manage your Linux server much more simply and accessibly. With Houston, you can configure and manage your servers within an intuitive window on a web browser.

Key advantages of Houston UI

Easy Management

Move your common administrator tasks onto a lean management layer and off the command line. Houston lets you easily configure and manage pools, shares, snapshots and more – all behind an intuitive user interface. Command line interface (CLI) is also available within Houston when needed.

Single Point Of View

Say goodbye to clutter. Houston offers a single point of view into your storage, providing all the high-level system information you need at a glance while staying lean and accessible.

Hardware Integration;

Houston makes hard drive replacements easier than ever, providing you with a live diagram showing which row your drives are in, their status and what pool they are in. Houston also provides a dynamic motherboard view, so you know how many HBA, RAM, etc. slots are open or used.
