Unified Computing

• Self IntegratingFaster deployment, higher reliability, higher productivity, fewer errors

• Embedded ManagementSimplified setup, increased control, lower costs

• Unified FabricIncrease workload agility, lower costs, lower power, higher reliability, simplified setup, higher asset utilization, higher application performance

• Virtualized AdaptersHigher workload agility, better VM performance, More workloads virtualized, lower cost per VM

• Extended MemoryLower cost per VM, higher database consolidation, better performance

• Hardware state abstraction – Service ProfilesHigher productivity, lower labor costs, fewer errors (no configuration drift)

Cloud Lifecycle Management leverages the BMC Remedy base platform for tenant and user management

• Proven Technology

• Supports complex multi-tenant environments

• Secure, role-based access models

• Multi-language support

• Unified tenant / organization / user for ITIL processes

• Support for hybrid request models (cloud / non-cloud)


BMC integration and support of Cisco UCS brings a new level of capability to Cloud deployments

A powerful combination to build highly agile clouds

BMC’s Cloud Lifecycle Management can support a cloud of physical and virtual resources

Pre-integrated solution for provisioning, configuration and control

Continuous capacity optimization

BMC has worked closely with Cisco and our joint customers to develop secure “Network Containers”

Enables a physical network to be provisioned and configured into multiple secure virtual networks

Each cloud tenant and cloud workload can have a specific network environment optimized for their security and performance requirements

Supports workload isolation and affinity

BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management enables a broad range of Cloud Services to be delivered to users

• E.g., 2 CPU’s, 8GB Ram, 100GB Storage, RedHat Linux, MySQL, Apache, etc., with load balancer placement, firewall ports xxxx opened, etc.

Granular, low-level services defined by the user

• E.g., Medium-size server with OS pre-installed, optional software selected, gold-level network service

“Template-style” services with tiered service levels

• E.g., Provision a complete, multi-tier development environment for project

Complex, aggregate services to deliver PaaS /

SaaS models

• E.g., Scale out content management system (add additional app servers)

Capacity scaling (“on request” or dynamically

“on demand”)

• E.g., Provision pre-defined infrastructure in third-party Virtual Private Cloud, then deploy in-house software

Hybrid Cloud services

Unique Service Blueprints provide unmatched flexibility in Cloud Service definition and deployment

Service definitions are mapped to Service Blueprints

Blueprints describe the functional model of the service (the components)

Blueprints also describe the deployment model of the service (how it should be provisioned)

Supports complex multi-tier services, PaaS / SaaSmodels, hybrid models
