Business value
Based on a unique architecture that integrates configuration automation and compliance assurance, BMC Server Automation enables IT organizations to implement a policy-based automation solution for managing their data centers, while also ensuring highest uptime for business-critical services. What's more, as customers continue to adopt virtualization and cloud-based technologies, this solution provides a single platform for managing physical and virtual servers, across all major virtual platforms.
Supported by a robust security model, it enables organizations to dramatically reduce operational costs, improve operational quality, and achieve operational compliance. The BMC solution addresses the following main functional areas:
- Configuration — Deploy various configuration objects to target servers and run batch jobs that configure server settings
- Provisioning — Perform unattended installations of an operating system on target servers (bare metal machines)
- Compliance — Analyze your servers for compliance with corporate policies or industry standards based on powerful compliance rules that you can author or use out-of-the-box
BMC Server Automation is part of the BMC BladeLogic Automation Suite.
