When you're running powerful AI infrastructure on your own servers, visibility and control are everything. You need to know what's happening, manage your resources efficiently, and keep everything running smoothly for your internal teams. That's precisely why we built the Vectara Admin Center, a new centralized interface that brings a comprehensive view and simplified management directly to our on-premise and VPC customers. It's designed to help your DevOps and IT Admin teams gain the autonomy they need to effectively oversee their Vectara environment.
Empowering Vectara Admins
Deploying and running software on your own servers can be tricky. We believe managing something like Vectara should be intuitive and straightforward, both during setup and day-to-day use. That's why we built the Vectara Admin Center. It's designed to give you a clear view and easy control over your Vectara environment. From managing users and their access to registering new models or checking resource use for planning, the Admin Center makes these tasks much simpler. And we're not stopping here; we'll keep improving this experience.
What the Admin Center Does
The Vectara Admin Center is designed to streamline your daily administrative tasks and give you immediate insights into your system's health. You can think of it as your central command post for managing your entire Vectara environment. Here are a few ways it helps simplify your day:
System Health: See the overall status of your Vectara deployment at a glance from the overview page, including total tenants, queries, and indexing requests
Tenant, User, and Admin Management: Easily manage tenants and users directly from the interface. Optionally add and manage additional admin users
Model Registration: Centralize the registration of new large language models (LLMs), making it simple for all your teams to use approved models, complete with their configured parameters
Corpus Monitoring: Get a quick overview of corpora across any given tenant and optionally rebuild any corpora experiencing issues
Bug reports: Quickly collect relevant logs to download a bug report artifact to submit to Vectara for accelerated support and issue resolution
These features aren't just about saving time. They also lighten the operational load on your technical teams, freeing them up to focus on more important, strategic work.
The Journey Continues
The launch of the Vectara Admin Center significantly enhances managing your Vectara deployment. This centralized interface is designed to make overseeing your Vectara environment far more straightforward. We are continuously investing in this experience to ensure it remains intuitive and powerful, providing you with the necessary tools as your deployments evolve.
The Admin Center is just the beginning of how we plan to improve your on-premise and VPC Vectara experiences. We're excited to see how it helps your teams become even more efficient and effective.
