Data center automation initiatives are a major part of many organizations' plans for improving IT efficiency, time to market, and server compliance. However, while DCA products provide simple, elegant ways to automate server provisioning and compliance, in the database tier, their solutions require extensive customization, and scripting to provide even limited functionality.

Complex applications like databases require dedicated solutions to address their specific requirements. Technologies like clustering, shared software installs, and the interrelationships between the various database components create a system too complex to be modeled in a data center automation solution.

Using a database automation product like GridApp Clarity™ can remove these challenges by providing a best of breed, application-specific solution that complements traditional data center automation solutions. Clarity's functionality:

  • Removes the need for DBAs to write and maintain provisioning scripts
  • Allows customers to share in the aggregate knowledge of GridApp and other customers
  • Requires minimal ramp-up time to support different or new database versions as Clarity already knows how to provision and patch those versions
  • Reduces customer involvement over time because the automation becomes more comprehensive (i.e. automation is used by all, not just a set of custom scripts for a single customer)
  •
