CasaOS has introduced a new commercial product called ZimaOS, designed to cater to the needs of professional application scenarios. ZimaOS combines the robustness of CasaOS with new features and capabilities tailored to professional demands, such as enhanced networking, ease of use, and lightweight AI.
