Qlusters Announces SEMPRE Management Platform
Qlusters Inc announced SEMPRE, a comprehensive server management platform that
delivers the benefits of utility computing to the enterprise. SEMPRE allows IT
to manage their datacenter at a lower cost, improve server utilization and
meet high availability goals -- ultimately delivering the ability to adapt to
customers' needs in real-time.
"Organizations implementing dynamic IT need systems which help them both lower
their overall costs and prove real business value," said Dan Kusnetzky,
program vice president of system software at IDC. "Provisioning resources for
multiple applications to meet pre-established levels of service dynamically is
an important component of dynamic IT."
"Cost pressures and quality of service requirements are driving CIOs to be
more innovative in how they structure the delivery of their services. The new
wave of virtualization technologies promises to minimize over-spending on
unused capacity, while allowing dynamic provisioning of available resources to
achieve higher levels of availability and service," says Bill Malik, vice
president of technology research for Aberdeen Group.
"Today's competitive market requires companies to deliver on the utility
computing vision," said Tom Gallivan, vice president of worldwide sales at
Rackable Systems. "Qlusters is clearly a leader in delivering an innovative,
robust management solution for the Linux datacenter."
SEMPRE is the only management platform in the industry that combines the most
crucial components of a complete utility computing model: virtualization,
provisioning and high availability. SEMPRE, allows IT organizations to:
- Virtualize IT environments by decoupling applications from system
resources, improving server utilization and allowing immediate resource
re-allocation.
- Automate application provisioning, ensuring that high availability
thresholds and quality of service goals are consistently met.
- Provide high availability to mission-critical applications on Linux,
leveraging IT investments in standardization.
SEMPRE advanced virtualization capabilities allow all datacenter resources to
be shared and reallocated in real-time. Many applications can share the same
server and many servers can process the workload of one application. This
unique flexibility allows datacenter managers to most effectively use their
compute resources, dramatically increase server utilization and improve
operational agility.
By constantly monitoring application and hardware environments, SEMPRE
identifies failing systems and will preemptively failover hardware and
applications, reducing unplanned downtime. In addition, SEMPRE Instant
Application Failover is the industry's only solution that fails over stateful
applications in less than 10 seconds, making the migration of mission critical
applications to Linux a reality.
"Our customers are tasked with implementing multiple technologies to achieve
utility computing, and look to Qlusters to provide the most comprehensive
server management platform in the market," said David Martin, chairman and CEO
of Qlusters. "With SEMPRE, IT organizations can now achieve full server
utilization and provide their enterprise with a dependable, adaptable and
affordable solution."
