How customers use it
Consume managed IT services across various cloud models
Problem
Hybrid platform integration and deployment of infrastructure and services is custom-built in the field but also is nonstandard, time-consuming, complex and error-prone.
Solution
Service consumers can consume managed enterprise IT services available as catalog items through a self-service portal. These catalog items are standard services which are pre-designed based on customer requirements.
Create, publish and reuse solution blueprints
Problem
Designing solution blueprints in a hybrid infrastructure is negatively impacted by a manual, nonstandard and non-repeatable model of deployment of managed services for application environments.
Solution
Your IT architect can design, build and publish solution blueprints for application workloads in minutes by selecting patterns from a catalog of offerings and deploying them by choosing simple provisioning parameters without pattern editing.
Capable monitoring and control using cognitive technologies
Problem
Your IT manager needs to better manage the IT budget by viewing estimates of billing for services more easily, tracking the budgets of different lines of business (LOB) in real time and quickly setting quotas on resources to be consumed by LOB.
Solution
With IBM Cloud Deployment Services, the IT manager can use a console and a catalog to manage consumption more efficiently, approve service requests more quickly and charge back the service consumption units to LOB more easily.
