SWsoft announces:
Provisioning and managing virtual datacenters is now easily automated with the
release of the SWsoft Datacenter Automation Suite. This comprehensive web-based
solution also helps IT managers expediently handle department user requests for
server space to accommodate new applications and users on virtual servers.
The Datacenter Automation Suite software addresses requirements for IT
infrastructures that adapt quickly to user needs. It helps automate the process
of assigning IT resources and also provides the capability to assess costs
according to usage. This is important because it is common for data center
budgets to be allocated within an enterprise based on usage.
"This latest addition to our set of virtualization management tools and
templates is the cornerstone to a truly adaptive infrastructure," said Serguei
Beloussov, CEO, SWsoft. "Automation will become an increasing piece of the core
differentiation between virtualization technologies. SWsoft, with Virtuozzo and
now the Datacenter Automation Suite, offers the most advanced tools for
automating, monitoring and managing virtual environments."
Create Servers to Meet Workload Demand - On the Fly
The new Datacenter Automation Suite enables departments to order services
from a secure web-based console and have them instantly provisioned from a
shared pool of available resources -- simplifying and automating the datacenter
workflow. After delivery, administrators use a web-based portal that allows
departments and end users to configure and maintain these services. All
resources and applications can be tracked to individual departments and users,
so costs can be assigned to the appropriate business unit. The Datacenter
Automation Suite can be easily extended through a flexible API.
The new automation suite is used with SWsoft's leading operating system
virtualization product, Virtuozzo, which gives IT administrators the flexibility
to dynamically create virtual environments. It reduces the need to add physical
servers and improves utilization of existing servers.
Virtuozzo software allows a single Windows or Linux physical server to be
provisioned into multiple, isolated and secure virtual environments. The virtual
environments perform and execute as independent servers with their own memory,
I/O, configuration files, users and applications.
