Platform Computing
![]() | Platform ISF creates a shared computing infrastructure from heterogeneous physical and virtual resources to deliver application environments according to workload-smart and resource-aware policies. Platform ISF enables IT to satisfy the diverse application infrastructure requirements across virtual and physical environments, and support multiple VM managers and operating systems, from a single-pane-of-glass management platform. |
Why Share Infrastructure with Platform ISF?
- Eliminate over-provisioning of infrastructure to meet peak demand, resulting in lower capital and operating expenses, and higher utilization
- Place workloads on the right systems to meet application requirements and service levels in a timely and cost-effective manner
- Expand application capacity on demand without capital outlay, by harvesting underutilized servers and desktops, or by centrally-controlled bursting to external infrastructure services
Highlights of Platform ISF
- Automated, self-service delivery of infrastructure. Enables the delivery of infrastructure services through on-demand, portal- and API-driven access to multi-component application services, tracked and billed according to us
- Workload-smart and resource-aware allocation. Guaranteed resource reservations coupled with optimum allocation result in increased utilization to ensure the right resources are allocated to the right application at the right time
- Heterogeneous resource integration. Satisfy the diverse computing infrastructure requirements across virtual and physical environments, and support multiple VM managers and operating systems, from a single-pane-of-glass management platform
- Scale from five to 5,000 hosts. Auto-scale your infrastructure on the fly to meet application needs no matter how big or small.
