Using an appliance-based approach to virtualisation, the Scale HC3 infrastructure solution is faster to deploy, easier to manage, and allows you to scale seamlessly as your organisation grows. Even in an emergency with the failure of hardware components or entire appliances, HC3 infrastructure lets you keep critical apps – and your entire organisation – up and running.
About the HC3 Virtualisation Platform
Simple
A system designed to run your critical apps more easily.
Eliminating multiple vendors from virtualisation infrastructure makes HC3 far easier to deploy and manage. Your IT administrators will spend less time managing infrastructure and have more time for projects that will move your business forward.
- Deploy in less than an hour
- Create new VMs in minutes
- Single pane, web-based management
- Automated storage management
- No-downtime system updates for hardware and software
- Single vendor support experience
Highly Available
Keep your critical apps and data always on and available.
In today’s 24/7/365 world, IT systems can’t afford downtime. Even if a hardware component or an entire HC3 appliance fails, an HC3 cluster can keep your systems running with little to no downtime.
- Redundant critical hardware components
- Automatic failover of VMs from a failed appliance
- Automatic data restriping for failed disks
- VMs are automatically highly available
- Intelligent self-healing automation
- Replicate and failover to remote systems
Scalable
Infrastructure that grows with you when you need it.
Traditionally, infrastructure scale-out has been so challenging that organisations planned and purchased infrastructure to accommodate growth up to five years in advance. With HC3 infrastructure, you buy only what you need and then scale-out seamlessly when you need it.
- Scale-out without downtime
- Seamless scale-out with automated storage configuration
- Mix and match hardware appliances
- Scale-out for higher VM performance
