How AIM Can Help Accelerate Development and Test Processes
Address infrastructure challenges and accelerate key processes by deploying Dell™ Advanced Infrastructure Manager (AIM). A workload mobility and recovery management solution, Dell AIM enables organizations to dramatically change the way they manage their data center workloads. This dynamic deployment software tool can help development and testing facilities to:
- Speed up deployment and management of systems
- Repurpose servers quickly from one role to another, from one test environment to another, and across physical servers and virtual machines by detaching the applications from the servers
- Transition a data center between different configurations or from bare metal to live, connected servers in five minutes or less, without physical intervention or infrastructure changes
- Control which software stacks run on every server, each server’s associated network connectivity, storage access and power state
Transform the functionality of entire farms of servers in real time to respond to the changing needs of your development and testing labs. By using technologies such as AIM, you can:
- Experience savings
- Decrease server counts
- Simplify management of infrastructure
- Increase system reliability
Dell also offers Virtual Integrated Systems (VIS) Creator, a tool that works with server, storage and network hardware from multiple vendors and enables development and testing labs to create automated processes for the deployment of resources and management of services, without being locked in to a particular vendor for virtualization, storage or servers.
