OpenLogic on Monday is announcing an upgrade to its OpenLogic Enterprise platform for deploying open source infrastructure.

Version 4.2 includes more than 200 open source products in a pre-certified library, up from 160 projects in the prior release. Among the projects added are the CruiseControl build automation tool; Subversion, for version control, and the WordPress blog tool. New versions of previously certified packages such as JBoss are featured as well.

Users of OpenLogic can pick and choose which products they want in their own stack.

Also featured in the upgrade is a Web-based management tool, OpenLogic Enterprise Manager, for updating and auditing. The tool ensures compliance with license terms and governance policies.

The 4.2 platform features APIs for integrating with existing infrastructure. A command line interface allows for scripting and automation of common installation, configuration and other tasks.

OpenLogic on Monday also is announcing a subset of the Enterprise product, called OpenLogic Enterprise Library Edition, featuring just the open source products but without the utilities featured in the Enterprise product. It is priced lower than OpenLogic Enterprise.

Prices of the two OpenLogic offerings vary based on configuration.
