[PacketFence-users] PacketFence Cloud is Here - Early Access Now Open

[Petrus, A. <ap...@ak...>]

PacketFence Community,

After 20+ years of building the most trusted NAC solution, we're excited
to announce *PacketFence Cloud* - enterprise-grade Network Access Control
delivered as a managed service.

*Self-hosted PacketFence remains free.* Cloud is built on the exact same
engine - we've just removed the operational burden of managing MariaDB,
FreeRADIUS, Apache, and Linux clustering yourself.


WHY CLOUD?

  - *Zero infrastructure:* No servers, no OS patching, no capacity planning
  - *Automatic HA:* Built-in high availability and disaster recovery
  - *Always current:* Automatic updates without maintenance windows
  - *Offline resilient:* Local RADIUS caching keeps auth working during outages
  - *Scale elastically:* From 100 to 1,500,000+ endpoints


PERFECT FOR ORGANIZATIONS WHO:

  - Love PacketFence but lack dedicated staff to maintain it
  - Face compliance audits requiring guaranteed uptime SLAs
  - Want to shift from CapEx (servers) to OpEx (subscription)
  - Need multi-site deployment without the complexity


EARLY ACCESS

We're opening PacketFence Cloud to a select group of organizations first.
Early adopters get priority onboarding, direct access to our engineering
team during setup, and *six months free* to evaluate the platform.
