Veritas Aims To Enable Utility Computing With New Server Provisioning Software [UC Newsdesk 2003/6/25]
Veritas Software has introduced Veritas OpForce 3.0, the latest version of its automated server provisioning software that aims to reduce the time, costs and resources traditionally needed to deploy servers in IT environments. Based on technology from the acquisition of Jareva Technologies earlier this year, the product is designed to improve the utilization of existing IT environments by intelligently provisioning resources such as servers, switches and load balancers across computer networks. Expanding Veritas technologies beyond it's area of storage software, Veritas believe the product will help IT departments evolve to a utility computing model that delivers IT as a measurable, always-on service aligned with business goals and directions. Historically, IT administrators have been forced to manually set up, configure and provision servers in heterogeneous data centers -- allocating the most powerful servers to handle peak loads at specific times. During off-peak times these same servers are often under-utilized, sometimes sitting idle. Industry analyst firm Forrester Research estimates average server utilization rarely exceeds 20 percent, leaving valuable computing resources largely untapped. Veritas OpForce software Is design to enable administrators to automatically reallocate under-utilized servers to "hotspots" in the network where their computing power can be best put to use.
