Key Features One Infrastructure for Any Workload HPE Synergy Composer matches a powerful software architecture to the flexible HPE Synergy hardware infrastructure. Software-defined management, powered by HPE OneView, eliminates complexity by quickly matching physical and virtual resources to bare metal, virtualized, and containerized workloads. Automatically discover the available compute-storage-fabric resources, bring them under monitoring, and display them for use in a single management domain. HPE Synergy Composer quickly organizes all types of infrastructure resources for use -- the essence of 'infrastructure-as-code'. Increase productivity and control across a hybrid cloud environment by using HPE Synergy Composer to support both current- and next gen- applications, while accommodating diverse infrastructure requirements and service level objectives. Deploy at Cloud-like Speed and Scale HPE Synergy Composer is a paradigm shift in how to manage infrastructure because it reduces manual interaction and human error, by implementing change operations automatically and capturing the best practices of your experts into templates. Powerful templates capture best practices and efficiently use resources, including creation of logical infrastructures to provision at near-instant speeds and meet application needs. Templates in HPE Synergy Composer can manage compute, storage, and fabric resources -- and even system images! Scaling is simple and automated. Additional capacity is self-assimilated into larger flexible pools to reduce operational complexity as hardware grows. This capability to quickly add groups of similar physical and logical resources saves time and money as you grow your environment. Accelerate application and service delivery time by precisely composing and re-composing logical infrastructures at near-instant speeds. Stand up services in minutes with a single line of code and create environments like those of public cloud providers in your own data center on-premise. Automate Everyday Operations Simplify IT operations, free stranded capacity, and efficiently manage your environment using the software-defined intelligence of HPE Synergy Composer. Using a single interface for multiple tools allows your administrator or team of administrators to quickly implement lifecycle operational changes. Eliminate downtime with non-disruptive firmware/driver updates that can update multiple frames to a new baseline while unifying updates for all components. Firmware and OS driver updates are controlled by server profiles and can be staged for activation during a maintenance window to reduce outages. Updates, from tested releases of component software, are securely handled using a dedicated data network (separate from the management/control network) with redundant path configurations. HPE Synergy out-of-band management offers a dedicated 10 Gbps bandwidth for added security and control. Server profile templates are powerful software constructs which comprehend compute, storage, and network resources for 'infrastructure-as-code' control. Templates 'monitor, flag, and remediate' out-of-compliance elements in individual server profiles to aid automation using inheritance properties. |
