    Use Cases

    • You're on call and happen to step away for a moment
    • Or your company is small and you're the only ops person. It's the weekend and you're out having fun with friends,
    • Suddenly your phone rings.
    • [Boss] Where are you? The server seems to have issues, please handle it urgently.
    • [Before] Hold on. You hang up and rush back frantically...
    • [Now] Sure. You hang up, open FinalTerm... Soon, the service is restored, the issue is resolved, and you can happily continue what you were doing. ^_^

    How It Works

    To achieve the scenario of quickly handling issues while away, doing things one by one on the spot is impractical, and typing on a phone is inconvenient. So you need to:

    1. Set up your server management list in the software beforehand
    2. Edit your operations scripts in the software beforehand
    3. Save other peripheral system info or commands in notes, etc. (optional)
    4. Enable the sync feature so that data syncs across your devices.

    This way, when a service on your server has issues, you can simply pull out your phone and run a script to quickly resolve the problem.

    Sync Methods

    Security

    Server security requires joint efforts from both sides:

    • Security is our top priority. The software generates temporary authentication keys for each interaction, and employs measures such as SSL security authentication, AES encryption, data tamper prevention, and replay attack prevention to ensure data legitimacy and security.
    • Do not expose servers directly to the public internet. Placing them behind an internal firewall and connecting via VPN is a recommended approach. Also, don't forget to regularly rotate server keys.
