BMC Control-M for Cloud

Extend dynamic workload management with the power and flexibility of virtualization and cloud computing

Satisfy the fluctuating server requirements needed to meet batch service levels by automatically provisioning virtual and cloud resources through integration with BMC BladeLogic Automation solutions, VMware, or Amazon EC2.

BMC Control-M for Cloud:

• Requests that BMC BladeLogic, VMware, or Amazon EC2 perform on-demand provisioning and decommissioning of virtual or cloud resources when SLA breaches or changes in workload volume are detected
• Consumes the cloud resources, runs the required workload, and then de-commissions and releases the provisioned resources
• Defines job types using a wizard-like form that interacts with each application (BMC BladeLogic, VMware, or Amazon EC2) and presents retrieved information in selection lists that make job definition simple and intuitive for users
• Manages server configuration tasks to ensure that invasive activities, such as re-booting after patch application, never collide with critical business workload

Using BMC Control-M for Cloud, you will:

• Reduce capital and operating expenses by dynamically provisioning virtual or cloud server resources for workload automation
• Meet service level and service delivery targets by ensuring sufficient resources are available for batch workload — even when faced with random or unexpected volume
• Reduce hardware, floor space, and power costs required to support workload automation by provisioning resources “just in time"
