SIMPLIFY IT OPERATIONS Agility Management and orchestration services for efficient provisioning and resource management across the infrastructure. Support for ITIL-based services. Compliance Configuration validation. No configuration sprawl.
CUSTOMERS SEE THE DIFFERENCE ACS Provisioned 200 virtual desktops in one afternoon Without the Vblock system, we would have needed 60 to 90 days to configure, cable, and test servers, networking, and storage, says Chief Technology Officer Nagesh Kunamneni. With the Vblock system, we set up a production system in just three weeks. CareCore National Reduced time to launch new lines of business from six months to two weeks Software engineers increased time devoted to development from 50 to 80 percent. With Vblock platforms, the IT organization can now roll out entire production environments with multiple software components in minutes, rather than the 8-12 hours it once took.
SIMPLIFY MANAGEMENT Unified Infrastructure Manager (UIM) manages across multiple Vblock platforms Ensures compliance with Vblock platform configuration guidelines and enforcement of change management discipline Configures and provisions Virtual Network access Virtual Storage connectivity and capacity Stateless Compute profiles Eliminates need for multiple server, network and storage configuration tools Streamlines integration requirements with third-party IT service management Use 80% less labor than traditional element managers
UIM SERVICE CATALOG Standard Catalog Profile Components Service Offering LAN/SAN Storage Operating system Compute Resources classified and grouped according to your particular environment Compute blades Storage RAID groups and thin pools Network VLANs, quality of service, PIN Group Resource capacity can be managed by grade of service Service Catalog allows resources to be provisioned based on business requirements
ENSURE CONFIGURATION COMPLIANCE Out-of-the-box compliance checks Compliance checks that have been enabled Validate compliance with Vblock platform configuration best practices Avoid configuration drift Avoid conflicting resource identity assignments Automatically track and report changes over time
ACHIEVE SLAS Predictable Performance Best-of-breed components tested and validated as a single unit of infrastructure. Unified scaling within and across units.
