Abstract: While Cloud Computing offers multiple opportunities for right-sizing the data center, taking advantage of the Cloud requires changes to IT skills, support processes, and toolsets. And while the Cloud is still viewed as disruptive technology by some, Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) sees an ideal end state as seamless integration of Cloud, on-premise, and internal Cloud. Achieving this vision requires a higher degree of automation and more sophisticated tools than has been the case in the past. Phurnace Deliver™, an application deployment and configuration automation tool, can help companies move toward this integrated approach. Deliver offers a deployment management alternative that automates both Cloud and on-premise application provisioning, while eliminating manual scripting and unwieldy runbooks. This Product Brief elaborates on these ideas and discusses Phurnace Deliver in more detail. |
