Resource Orchestrator enables uniform management of private clouds and data center resources (servers, storage, and networks). By managing these resources as resource pools, this dynamic resource management software reduces infrastructure costs and strengthens ICT governance.
This section explains some of the features provided by Resource Orchestrator.
Accelerated Support for Transforming Businesses
Resource Orchestrator enables you to quickly tailor a server (with storage and networks) to your specific needs by managing your ICT resources, such as servers, storage, networks, and images (*1), as resource pools. By simplifying the launch, expansion, or change of business operations, this software accelerates the transformation of businesses.
*1: An image is a copy of the contents of a disk (including the operating system) of a server, which can be deployed to other servers.
Reduced Infrastructure Investment Costs
Resource Orchestrator provides visualization services for servers, storage resources, and network resources, making the state of each of these resources visible to you. This enables you to efficiently utilize all of your resources and effectively plan for the installation of required resources, reducing infrastructure investment costs.
Reduced Infrastructure Operational Costs
Resource Orchestrator provides a template with defined logical specifications (number of CPUs, memory capacity, disk capacity, number of NICs, etc.) for a server with storage and networks. Using this template to standardize the configuration of a system including servers, storage, and networks, offers the following benefits:
Simplified system configuration.
Reduced risk of mistakes through the use of proven values for parameter settings when installing an operating system or setting up storage and networks.
Reduced infrastructure operational costs through a unified configuration for managing versions of security software or backup methods over multiple systems.
Practicing ICT Governance
Resource Orchestrator enables you to perform security management (user role management and access control) regardless of the platform size. Pooled resources can be divided and secured by user, ensuring appropriate governance of ICT.
