VMTurbo, the only application performance control platform, today
announced turnkey integration with VMware vRealize Automation in its
latest release, VMTurbo 5.5. This release continues to expand VMTurbo's
control, extending support and control for IBM PowerVM, as well as fully
automated public cloud migration capabilities.
"Intelligent
workload management is a crucial component to the success of nearly
every IT initiative, from managing a diverse infrastructure to deploying
multi- and hybrid cloud solutions," said Shmuel Kliger, President and
Founder of VMTurbo. "We continue to add data center entities to our
market-based algorithm, transforming a whole new set of infrastructure
into an available pool of resources. This release extends our mission to
provide control for any workload, across any cloud, any time,
anywhere."
The latest release offers integration with VMware
vRealize Automation, commonly used for private cloud management. VMTurbo
adds real-time intelligent placement decisions for vRA based on
understanding of application workload demand and the available
resources. Equipped with these fully automatable decisions, vRA users
gain greater control of their environment and are able to mitigate the
performance risks typically introduced with self-service portals, all
while making the most efficient use of the available infrastructure.
The
release also extends control to support IBM PowerVM, the virtualization
solution for IBM POWER servers. VMTurbo is the first solution capable
of demand-based workload management in IBM POWER™ environments. This
integration provides users managing mixed server environments, with both
x86 and POWER servers, the ability to automate all workload sizing and
placement decisions and assure the performance on any application
Key benefits of VMTurbo 5.5 include:
- Integration with VMware vRealize Automation for smarter placement decisions
- Extension of control for IBM PowerVM to assure performance of any workload
- Introduction of "Cross Anything Migration," enabling users to
migrate workloads from private to public clouds or to different
hypervisors, fully automated
- Enhanced remote planning, enabling users to run more plans simultaneously in multiple instances of VMTurbo
- New dashboards enable a clearer understanding of the decisions
VMTurbo makes and the impact to application performance and
infrastructure efficiency

"Automation
and orchestration are a major focus for enterprise IT across industries
as they plan for and deploy hybrid cloud solutions, but automation
without intelligence is just as dangerous as manual system management,"
said Geeta Sachdev, CMO, VMTurbo. "With each release, VMTurbo continues
to expand it's real-time application performance control, bringing
Intelligent Workload Management to Private Cloud solutions like VMware's
vRA and beyond, guaranteeing performance and efficiency in every area
of the data center."
