Software Defined Infrastructure
Integrate and automate all your critical IT functions. Manage and configure your fully virtualized compute, networking and storage resources if they were software.
Aggregate storage resources, scale out the system across a server cluster, manage the shared storage pool and storage services through a single administrative interface, and set policies to control storage features and functionality.
Make your networks agile and flexible. The goal of SDN is to improve network control by enabling enterprises and service providers to respond quickly to changing business requirements.
Hyperconverged platforms include a hypervisor for virtualized computing, software-defined storage, and virtualized networking, and they typically run on standard, off-the-shelf servers. Multiple nodes can be clustered together to create pools of shared compute and storage resources, designed for convenient consumption.
