The integrated cloud infrastructure solution combines the new VMware vCloud Director with the HP BladeSystem Matrix and HP Cloud Maps. The integration will be available as a technology preview by the end of the year.
From a Business Service Management perspective, the big news is a new HP Insight Control extension for VMware vCenter Server, enabling users to optimize their IT environments and reduce complexity with better management.
“HP’s new Insight Control for VMware vCenter Server delivers comprehensive infrastructure management capabilities, including comprehensive monitoring, remote control and power optimization directly from the VMware vCenter Server console, ” says Jeff Carlat, Director of Marketing, Insight & Partner Software, Industry Standard Servers and Software, HP.
