So, you bought into the clouds and the benefits it brings to IT and business agility. You know Citrix that one of the advantages of Apache CloudStack has accelerated the delivery of IT services through the combination of self-service provisioning and a catalog of custom built machine images. You are running or perhaps CloudStack-evaluation and reveling in the luxury of being able to turn and turning off resources on demand. It is faster and easier for you to deliver new IT services to your users, and they get all the advantages of a self-service access to the application.
All is well. But wait a minute. ? What about those "machines pictures custom-built" Who trafficking How to get-they CloudStack And that keeps
The bottom line is:?. You And unlike your new bright cloud where you can enjoy high levels of self-sevice and automation of computing resources, network and storage, it is more than likely you're having to build and maintain these images manually. you probably the same feeling of buying a new Porsche then being stuck in traffic: .. Unable to take full advantage of the power of your engine
and that's just in UShareSoft
the reality today is that many software vendors and enterprises continue to assemble cloud server templates and virtual machines manually or using semi-automated processes. This makes it difficult to :.
- Rapidly scale the number of applications running on the cloud;
- Easily update and maintain virtual machines with new versions, patches, etc;
- easily trace software components, licenses, etc. in the picture; and
- Deliver bespoke "build-to-order" application stacks on demand.
UShareSoft provides automation and self-service for the cloud software via templating model-driven. Our UForge platform "planes" the complete software stack, from OS individual packets up, like a cloud server model that is independent of any hypervisor or IaaS platform. It then automatically generates and publish a final image of the machine to the hypervisor or cloud of your choice. CloudStack, Xen, VMware, Amazon EC2 and many more simply to model once deliver anywhere UForge also fully automates the delivery process. complete software, construction and generation of publishing and maintenance.
There are several advantages to combine automation with modeling software before onboarding Cloud. Ceux- these include:
- Support for multiple hypervisors and clouds, enabling customers to address virtualization to cloud or implement a hybrid cloud strategy;
- fine control over each level of the software stack for the governance of software and compliance;
- consumer cloud software self-service and "build-to-order" custom software stacks, and
- Ability to build an enterprise application market where application developers and consumers can create, share, clone and customize cloud server models.
If you are interested in learning more, so I recently recorded a seminar session with Citrix , discuss the benefits of using UForge with CloudStack.
