Comprehensive application manageability

Service-centric approach

Infrastructure Management

Transform Your Data Center into a Private Cloud

HETEROGENEITY

Create cloud abstractions across virtualized infrastructure from Microsoft, VMware, and Citrix.

ABSTRACTION

Take the underlying infrastructure of networking, storage, and compute, and abstract those resources into clouds.

ACCESS

Manage resource utilization and service creation by delegating self-service access to cloud resources.

CONTROL

Standardize application deployment using templates.

STANDARDIZATION SELF SERVICE AUTOMATION

Give consumers of IT services the ability to identify, access

and request services as needed.

Controlled Empowerment

Request offerings displayed based on user role

Intuitive easy to navigate portal

Automate the service processes and systems

necessary to the fulfillment of consumer requests.

Automate routing of requests for approval and notification.

Automate provisioning of the service request

Standardize the services provided by IT to consumers.

Define the services to be offered

Define the request offerings that will be contained within a Service Offering

Identify who needs to be involved (approvals, notifications, fulfillment)

ProcessesRequest Template

Standardize OfferingsSERVICE REQUESTS REQUEST OFFERINGS AUTOMATION

Define the services that IT will deliver to its consumers.

Specify requests available for each service and what information will be required to fulfill each request.

Define the supporting organizational activities needed to deliver on the request and ensure traceability and compliance.

Application Management

Application Specification

Create Service Template

Customize DeploymentDeploy Service

Update Template and Apply to Service

Application delivery lifecycle

Application profiles for consistent and predictable apps

Compatibility

Define which OS versions and editions the application will run on

Windows 2003/2008 (x86, x64)Windows Server 2008 R2 (x64)

Definition Execution

Capture the OS configuration and the SQL connection information

Timezone, Product key, admin password, Domain join, dacpacs

Run pre-scripts, post-scripts, and executables as part of the application deployment

Any commands and actions outside of the application

Virtualizing applications with Server App-V

HOSTS

• Virtualized Windows Services are registered with the Service Control Manager

• Web applications that run on top of IIS 6, 7, 7.5

• All types of user accounts are supported (LocalSystem, Network Service, Domain Accounts)

RESOURCES COMPONENTS

• Application binaries• COM+ and DCOM• Text-based configurations• WMI providers• SSRS• Local users and groups

• Registry settings• COM• Java apps• .NET components• State-persisted information

stored on the local disk

Enabling application self serviceDELEGATION WITH CONTROL

Take advantage of standardized templates

Quota enforcement with clear guidance on utilization

EMPOWERING APPLICATION OWNERS

SINGLE MANAGEMENT POINT

Role-based access to content

Create, manage, and move resources between repositories

Private and public cloud services plus virtual machines

Job auditing and task progress

Change history

The complete application monitoring solution

Server-Side

Monitoring the actual code that is executed and delivered by the application

Client-Side Synthetic

End-user experiences related to page load times, server and network latency, and client-side scripting exceptions

Pre-recorded testing paths through the application that highlight availability, response times, and unexpected responses

Infrastructure Monitoring

Use the same tools to monitor with visibility across infrastructure and applications

Application Specification

Create Service Template

Customize DeploymentDeploy Service

Update Template and Apply to Service

Application delivery lifecycle - Revisited

Provision application resources to the VMM

library

Publish Service Template, delegate authority and quota

Move the application to production, add into maintenance routines, and configure APM

Define the resources and performance requirements for the application

Create a new Service Template in the VMM library based on the

application requirements

Choose most appropriate cloud of server instances for the application

Start the deployment of the application, either by IT or by an App Owner through App Controller

Deliver of on-going maintenance of the application and new version upgrades

Update the application and version control
