Service Providers
The test lab plays a critical role for services providers, but too often they represent a significant drain on financial and human resources. What if there was as way to make your lab environment significantly more efficient and streamlined so you could deliver a higher quality of service to all users – whether you have just one lab or multiple facilities around the world?
Gale Technologies can help you achieve levels of productivity in the lab like never before through our resource orchestration and lab automation testing solutions. With Gale Technologies, you will be able to:
- Reduce lab capital equipment expenditures through better inventory awareness, equipment sharing and consolidation of geographically dispersed labs.
- Reduce time and labor cost of rewiring lab topologies.
- Reduce time and labor cost of provisioning and configuring equipment.
- Improve power and air-conditioning efficiency in the lab.
- Provide seamless remote access to test beds for off-shore teams.
- Provide an automated “lights-out” testing environment.
- Save time developing automated regression test suites.
- Improve human resource efficiency by preventing constant rewriting of test scripts when vendor hardware or software changes.
- Improve visibility of lab operations efficiency and return on investment to management.
Network Equipment Manufacturers
The two biggest drains on your financial and human resources are the continual investments in capital equipment and the time it takes to connect and disconnect it all in the lab. If only there was a way to address both issues with a single solution. Now there is.
Gale Technologies can help you achieve levels of productivity in the lab like never before through our resource orchestration and lab automation testing solutions. With Gale Technologies, you will be able to:
- Drastically reduce investments in capital equipment purchases.
- Reduce time and labor cost of rewiring lab topologies.
- Increase the effective testing time by reducing the time spent on cabling, fiber cleaning, and troubleshooting connections.
- Plan and provide for optimal test beds thus maximizing valuable resource utilization.
- Provide an automated “lights-out” 24x7 testing environment.
- Improve power and air-conditioning efficiency in the lab.
- Share resources and better leverage a minimal amount of existing test equipment by building “dynamic” test-beds, reducing upfront costs.
Storage and Storage Area Network Providers
For Storage Area Network (SAN) providers time is of the essence. Not only do you have to build a test environment for both hardware and software, you have to build it quickly and reliably every time. Now there’s a way to do that, which is faster, more cost-effective and more reliable.
Gale Technologies provides resource orchestration and lab automation testing solutions that will help you achieve levels of productivity in the lab like never before. With Gale Technologies, you will be able to:
- Rapidly and reliably build complex hardware and software test environments, plus change, save, and restore environments on demand.
- Significantly reduce capital investments in equipment purchases.
- Reduce time and labor cost of rewiring complex lab topologies.
- Increase the effective testing time and coverage by reducing the time spent on cabling, fiber cleaning, and troubleshooting connections.
- Plan and provide for optimal test bed scheduling, thus maximizing valuable resource utilization.
- Provide an automated “lights-out” 24x7 testing environment, with access to teams around the globe.
- Improve power utilization and air-conditioning efficiency in the lab.
- Share resources within and across labs, better leverage existing equipment.
Software Vendors
While provisioning servers and storage equipment for application testing can be straightforward, more often than not it requires a significant amount of capital and operational expenditure. That’s because hardware has to be located, connected, scheduled, and provisioned – often in many different combinations – before an application can be thoroughly tested.
With resource orchestration and lab automation testing solutions from Gale Technologies you can automate much of the manual and mundane processes involved testing software applications and specific topologies. As a result, you can
- Automatically provision physical and virtual servers, end-to-end software test beds and topologies for internal development, QA, and partner or interoperability testing.
- Drastically reduce investments in capital equipment purchases.
- Reduce time and labor cost of rewiring lab topologies.
- Increase the effective testing time by reducing the time spent on cabling, fiber cleaning, and troubleshooting connections.
- Plan and provide for optimal test beds thus maximizing valuable resource utilization.
- Provide an automated “lights-out” 24x7 testing environment.
- Improve power and air-conditioning efficiency in the lab through intelligent power management.
- Share resources and better leverage a minimal amount of existing test equipment by building “dynamic” test-beds, reducing upfront costs.
Enterprise IT Organizations
At a time when budgets are being reduced, enterprise IT departments are facing more and more challenges. From lowering your carbon footprint to securely leveraging private and public clouds, to virtualization, today’s CIO can never rest. Now there is a solution that can help with many of your most pressing issues.
Part cloud management software, part datacenter automation software, part virtualization software, GaleForce is all about delivering significant benefits to your enterprise. An advanced resource orchestration platform that makes light work of managing and provisioning both virtual and physical resources, enterprise IT groups can use GaleForce in many different and beneficial ways:
- Carbon Footprint Reduction – GaleForce’s inherent intelligent power management capabilities ensure that devices are powered on when you need them and off when you don’t. And it’s all done automatically. As such, you will be able to reduce power and cooling demands, leading to a reduced carbon footprint.
- Self Service Enablement – With GaleForce, your IT administrators can hand back some of their daily responsibilities to the users – password resets, server provisioning, and loading applications for example. With GaleForce’s high level of automation and low learning curve, end users can serve themselves through a custom-branded and self-service web portal, eliminating the traditional IT bottleneck.
- High Availability Disaster Recovery – GaleForce provides a self-contained solution for disaster recovery planning. Using its powerful design and provisioning capabilities you can develop redundant topologies and leverage virtualization to ensure mission-critical business applications are protected in the event of an unforeseen disaster.
- Capacity Planning – If you have a software development lab, you already know the difficult decisions that need to be made when additional hardware resources are needed. Do you purchase, rent or pay-per-use? GaleForce makes is easy and safe to burst into the public cloud and connect two physical environments with secure network devices, dramatically simplifying capacity planning.
- Virtual Desktop Provisioning – Provisioning desktops is a time and labor-intensive process, especially if you have thousands of users at multiple global locations. With GaleForce you can have one central command center to remotely manage and execute automated desktop provisioning with minimal human intervention.
- Data Center Transformation – The “new age datacenter” is fast becoming a reality with more automation, virtualization, and cloud computing – and less power and cooling requirements. GaleForce can help you transition to a greener, more dynamic and efficient data center that better reflects the needs of the modern day enterprise.
