Platform VMO v2
Overview
Businesses can reduce the manual costs associated with running large-scale distributed environments by using Platform VM Orchestrator (VMO) to:

Virtualization is an enabling technology used to greatly simplify an IT infrastructure, optimize resources, and reduce risk to deliver the highest quality of services available. However, this creates a new set of management challenges including - silos of virtual environments between departments, applications, and technologies; costly manual processes to manage service levels and policies; and high risk from single points of failure for critical applications.

It optimizes capacity utilization with precision by dynamically balancing and controlling the allocation of virtual server resources in real time according to a broad range of service level policies to improve manageability and efficiency, save many man-hours of costly labor and ensure critical applications are always available.

It reduces risk and ensures critical applications are always available with priority access.
