We are proud to announce this new release of the Carbon plugin for GLPI, which brings bugfixes and adds support of cloud servers with the help of the plugin Cloud Inventory.
Built as part of the IEN Project (Impact Environnemental du Numérique) with IRT SystemX, Teclib’ and other partners, this plugin helps you to evaluate the environmental impact of your IT assets.
You can download it on the Marketplace of GLPI (preferred) or the Plugin Carbon project: https://github.com/pluginsGLPI/carbon/releases/tag/1.4.0
The plugin now handles the servers hosted in datacenters of main cloud operators. This feature depends on the plugin Cloud Inventory, which is available for subscribers, to identify the servers hosted in 3rd party providers. Like the other assets, the life cycle assment is done by Boaviztapi.

— GLPI 12 ready: the plugin is now fully compatible with GLPI 12.

— Dashboard import: set up the Carbon dashboard with a single command.
