Abstract:

Technologies for managing application configurations and associated credentials of a unified collaboration application include a centralized hub computing device configured to install an integration of a cloud-based application and establish a link the integration to a unified collaboration application. To do so, the centralized hub computing device is configured to receive configuration input for the integration from a user, store the configuration in an input application configuration database of the centralized hub computing device, and enable the application integration such that a communication channel can be established between the integration and the unified collaboration application via the centralized hub computing device. Additional embodiments are described herein.

Abstract:

Network storage system configuration via a network is disclosed. An IP assignment component is configured to listen for IP assignment requests over the network. Responsive to identifying an IP assignment request originating from a network storage system, the IP assignment component assigns an IP address to the network storage system, and provides configuration access to the network storage system based upon the IP address. A network device management component is configured to send identification requests over the network. Responsive to receiving a response from a network storage system having a previously assigned IP address, the network device management component provides configuration access to the network storage system based upon the previously assigned IP address. In this manner, a network storage system is (e.g., remotely) configured (e.g., over a network), rather than a technician having to physically connect (e.g., via a serial cable) to the network storage system.
