GaleForce 6.0

Efficient Automation Starts Here

GaleForce is an advanced automation and orchestration platform that makes light work of managing and provisioning both virtual and physical resources – in the lab, data center or cloud.

Provisioning infrastructure that used to take highly skilled staff days or even weeks to accomplish can literally be completed in less than 30 minutes with template-based automated provisioning provided by GaleForce. Because GaleForce will dramatically increase the utilization of resources you already own – typically from under 10% to over 95% – you will be able to reduce capital and operational expenditures and do more with less physical, virtual, and human resources.

GaleForce will literally transform how you approach resource management and provisioning by enabling the adoption of a self-service model. Using a secure Web portal, staff will be able to access and orchestrate your physical and virtual resources 24/7 from anywhere in the world.

Unlike narrow point solutions that only focus on specific narrow tasks, GaleForce is an integrated, end-to-end solution that spans the product and solution orchestration lifecycle. Now with just one comprehensive and extensible platform, you can effortlessly design, locate, schedule, connect, provision and access all of your virtual or physical resources – servers, virtualization layers, networking, storage, applications, and even private and public clouds. GaleForce will scale up easily to accommodate multiple-site operation while its intelligent power management capabilities can significantly reduce your carbon footprint.
