Dynamic IT Infrastructure
Typical data center infrastructure is divided into 3 technology silos servers, network, storage
Each silo is managed by specific set of tools supplied by multiple vendors
Servers are immovably tied to specific server images. Change is complicated and requires manual cross-silo coordination
In a dynamic IT infrastructure, server images are disassociated from servers making images mobile, and the servers re-purposable
Dell AIM automates cross-silo coordination and simplifies infrastructure moves, adds, and changes

22. Provision servers in minutes
Automatic configuration of Network connectivity and storage access
Reduces silos
Fewer interdependencies between storage and networking
Choice of booting
Local disk or centralized storage (SAN, NAS, iSCSI).
Migration of server images
Allows physical-to-physical (P2P) or physical-to-virtual (P2V)
From pallet to production in minutes
AIM - Rapid Provisioning
23. Rack once Cable once
Discovers and manages
Hypervisors and any VMs already configured
Provides seamless mobility of workloads
Between physical servers and virtual machines without needing a conversion process
Easily grow and shrink cluster capacity based on needs
AIM Eases Virtualization Deployment
24. Provides an N+1 availability
A spare server anywhere in the infrastructure can replace any failed server.
Automatically detects server failures
Retargets the failed servers image to available spare physical or virtual.
Network and storage connectivity is automatically established
Protect applications against hardware failures
AIM Automated High Availability
