Quest Software Launches Cloud Automation Platform 7.5

Dec 13, 2010

Cloud automation services provider Quest Software announced the release of

its Cloud Automation Platform 7.5, the company’s cloud automation and

management technology. The platform helps small to medium-size businesses manage

and deliver IT services across the enterprise. When combined with the overall

Quest virtualization management portfolio, the Quest Cloud Automation Platform

offers a comprehensive solution for deploying and automating infrastructure as

a service to private clouds, the company claimed.

The Cloud Automation Platform assumes the presence of virtual infrastructure

from either VMware or Microsoft, and allows combinations of both in a single

private cloud. In addition, the Cloud Automation Platform integrates with

physical provisioning and automation solutions from technology providers such

as Hewlett-Packard and Symantec. Finally, the platform provides a self-service

portal backed by automated service delivery and recovery, as well as

user-centric services that can be scaled.

Features include the Cloud Capacity Management Dashboard, which provides an interactive

graphical view of pooled infrastructure that enables cloud administrators to

manage cloud capacity and resource allocation, and an updated graphical

interface that enables administrators to manage migration recommendations from

performance management tools (i.e., VMware vMotion, DRS,

DPM) while maintaining the integrity of a self-service cloud.
