@Vincent-TP thanks for your reply. I am using the festa Cloud Controller. As far as i am aware the Festa devices are not compatible with Omada, correct?

 

I guess your responce is still valid for the Festa Cloud service.

  @Vincent-TP I strongly disagree with this statement.
 

It have an Omada Gateway ER605 V2.0 that has been sitting on a shelf in my office for 18 months waiting for tp-link to resolve a known firmware issue. I get 2-12 days of uptime max then poof it crashes and will not function without restoring to factory defaults. 
 

Reports on this bug go back to 2022, why are they even selling the unit if there's a reasonable chance it won't operate as advertised? that's fraud. 
 

don't rely, be wary. 

Yes, there are several Cloud Management alternatives—both in terms of tools and service models—depending on what you're looking to manage (e.g., infrastructure, cost, security, multi-cloud environments). If you're asking whether there's an alternative to managing cloud infrastructure manually or directly through IaaS providers, the answer is absolutely yes. 🔧 Cloud Management Alternatives (Tools and Platforms) If you're looking for platforms that help manage cloud infrastructure, here are some popular alternatives: 1. Cloud Management Platforms (CMPs): These tools help manage multi-cloud or hybrid environments from a single interface. VMware vRealize Suite – Manages hybrid cloud environments, ideal for enterprises. CloudBolt – Offers automation, cost control, and provisioning across multiple clouds. Scalr – Designed for large organizations that need compliance and policy enforcement. Morpheus – Great for DevOps teams managing multiple cloud vendors and tools. RightScale (now part of Flexera) – Offers multi-cloud governance and cost optimization. 2. Native Cloud Management Tools (from IaaS providers): Each major cloud provider offers their own management solutions: AWS CloudFormation / AWS Control Tower Azure Arc / Azure Monitor Google Cloud Deployment Manager / Google Cloud Operations These are useful if you're primarily working within one provider’s ecosystem.

Will there be an alternative to the cloud management at some point?
Is there currently a way to do this?

in 5-10 Years the servers might be shutdown and i'd still like to manage my device.
