The rise of Industry 4.0 drives unique demands. Building smart factories means being smart about what technologies to deploy in the cloud, the data center, and on the manufacturing floor (at the edge). Any downtime, especially unplanned, can become extremely costly.
Running a highly available and secure IT infrastructure is an absolute must - but this can be a complex endeavor, especially when there is little to no IT knowledge. Therefore, edge computing systems need to be easy to implement, update and maintain, and all at a low TCO.
The time spent managing a system may be a solution's single, most overlooked cost. How many hours a day do your IT professional spend just to keep your infrastructure running, and on routine tasks like monitoring performance and doing updates? With SC//Platform, management time is kept to a minimum, which keeps your ongoing costs lower than any other solution.
Scale Computing envisioned ‘hyperconvergence’ with the goal of simplifying daily IT tasks and reducing costs. Complex IT infrastructures requiring high levels of expertise can now be replaced with streamlined SC//Platform.
The IT needs of organizations evolve over time. While scaling traditional architectures can be complex, SC//Platform allows you to scale out seamlessly, without taking any VMs offline. Choose from low compute/high storage, higher-end hybrid storage, or high compute/solid state nodes. Gain flexibility not offered by traditional solutions, while aligning your business needs.
“We have standardized on Scale Computing at our remote sites because those clusters are easy to manage and deploy. We have reduced our spend and saved a great deal of time not have to train staff on legacy virtualization, as well as not having to spend time managing multiple vendors.”
IT leadership saw the opportunity to create a more strategic and cost effective IT infrastructure as they went about making up their technology debt at their global manufacturing facilities.
Replacing multiple vendors with an integrated, self-healing infrastructure makes SC//Platform 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.
Keep your critical apps and data always on and available.
Traditionally, infrastructure scale-out has been so challenging that organizations planned and purchased infrastructure to accommodate growth up to five years in advance. Edge computing and smaller remote sites create new challenges with restrictions on physical size, power, noise, and manageability. With SC//Platform infrastructure, you buy only what you need and then scale out seamlessly when required.
SC//Platform allows you to optimize your manufacturing operations with self-healing, automated infrastructure for your applications. From planning to product design to distribution, the right IT platform improves processes and increases productivity. Free your IT team from the complexity and costs of traditional IT, allowing them to focus more on furthering business needs.
