Fujitsu makes IT infrastructure more simple in cloud environment

Delivery in a cloud environment is the most delicate and stressful phase of the relationship between IT service providers and customers, and may even affect the cooperation between the TT vendor and the customer. One root cause of this situation is the difficult configuration of traditional IT infrastructures. In the industry, with the increasingly complex application, whether the server, storage and other platform resources seamless integration and achieve optimal deployment, the relationship between the future system application results. "But in the traditional mode of operation, because the entire configuration process will involve a lot of manual operation, and require IT service providers to the system hardware platform and customer applications have a deep understanding, not only the IT service provider into a multitude of applications in the mire can not extricate themselves, Customers are also overwhelmed by the lengthy and repetitive delivery process. "The person thinks.

As the world's leading IT integrated service provider, Fujitsu believes that to fundamentally address these issues, it is important to speed up and simplify the process of configuring the IT Infrastructure resources. "This is especially important in a cloud environment," he said. "The original purpose of cloud computing was to make the application of information more simple and flexible, and to achieve a further reduction in costs," said Fujitsu's relevant leaders. However, in the face of increasingly large-scale cluster applications, the traditional artificial way is obviously outdated. ”

Based on this judgment, Fujitsu, with its forward-looking grasp of IT technology, has launched the core component Ror of cloud computing resource Automation (ServerView Resource orchestrator). As the core of Fujitsu's ServerView software PRODUCT system, ROR is a product designed specifically for new technologies such as cloud computing, virtualization, and dynamic infrastructure, and its fundamental role is to effectively enhance the consistency and flexibility of system management, Make the resource allocation challenges that the IT service provider or the customers have a big headache solve in the past.

In layman's terms, Ror is the role of a resource conductor. It can be used to include physical/virtual servers, easy scheduling of all resources, such as storage, network, and OS mirroring, allows customers to automate almost all of the IT infrastructures in a cloud environment within minutes, thus simplifying the management and debugging of the project and saving the cost effectively. At the same time, this fast and efficient delivery process will undoubtedly improve customer satisfaction.

Effectively consolidating these IT infrastructure resources is only the first step. From the user's point of view, his goal is not only to build a strong enough hardware infrastructure platform, but also to achieve the application and the flow of resources in the application, which requires all the system environment into a unified management system.

To this end, ROR provides an automated management platform that includes a range of infrastructure resources, including servers, storage, virtual machines, and networks, to enable them to achieve unified management, control, and detection while the system environment can be deployed automatically.

The benefits are obvious because we can see that while one of the key advantages of the cloud era is the broadest and more efficient use of resources to achieve more efficient applications, it is not easy to truly seamlessly link resources through platform barriers among different vendors, And it may have a negative impact on the future of the customer based on cloud platform applications. Ror can be a good solution to the above problems, in the past, across the technical barriers between vendors, so can easily complete virtualization integration, business migration and management automation goals.

In addition, for those customers who just want to retrofit the server virtualization, Fujitsu offers a dedicated Server resource Coordinator Suite RCVE (serverview Resource coordinate virtual server Edition), This is designed to integrate and manage previously incompatible server platforms.

Fujitsu's ROR has made it easier for customers to deploy their cloud environments. Through the unified integration and management of various basic resource platforms, as well as the further optimization of resources, ROR can greatly simplify the whole delivery process, and the customer's cloud computing environment deployment is a logical step. "An integrator who successfully completed the provisioning of customer cloud applications through the introduction of the Fujitsu Server View Suite."

Fujitsu's Ror is like a "black box" that allows users to easily configure the visual interface provided by Fujitsu without having to focus on the underlying physical resources. "The role of Ror, just as a novice computer people do not have to work on what kind of CPU, memory or hard disk, you just care about your application is not satisfied with your needs, the rest of the work as long as we give." "Fujitsu (China) chief Technology Officer Zhou Yiping commented.
