One of my favorite things about this is that we are bringing a GitOps workflow to IT teams. As a software engineer myself, seeing change management and CI coming to other domains within the organization is incredibly exciting!

- lsowen 3y agoIs the MDM for MacOs only? Or is it cross platform? If not currently cross platform, are there any plans to support Linux desktops in the future?
- sekh60 3y agoWhat would MDM enable on Linux that isn't already covered by FreeIPA/IdM combined with ansible?
- lsowen 3y agoAnsible is primarily a "push" model, which is hard with systems which may or may not be online from various locations (eg laptops). Plus having a cross platform MDM would allow an IT team to manage a fleet of end user devices without having to become experts in each of them. For example, the MDM could have push button "erase this machine", etc
- sekh60 3y agoVery good point on the push model when it comes to devices like laptops. Not sure how I feel on the second point. Managing Linux at scale, aside from the laptop point is pretty easy. Maybe companies need better help desk employees.
