Open source management platform provides
integrated management across health insurance provider's
heterogeneous datacenter resources
Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the world's largest provider of open
source software solutions, today announced that Corvesta, Inc. has
selected Red Hat CloudForms as part of Red Hat Cloud Infrastructure
to manage its build-out of a cohesive, hybrid cloud infrastructure
aimed at business diversification. CloudForms will manage
Corvesta’s existing private cloud infrastructure consisting of
resources from Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, Amazon Web
Services and VMware.
Corvesta, Inc., a company dedicated to advancing oral health,
evaluated multiple cloud management platforms in order to transform
their legacy infrastructure into an agile sandbox environment for
development, as well as to explore the possibility of horizontal
scaling through cloud computing that could respond to the business'
demand. They selected Red Hat CloudForms for its open source
ecosystem, which allows the solution to fully integrate and serve
as the primary interface for Corvesta's existing cloud and Red Hat
Enterprise Virtualization resources with little-to-no modification.
Additionally, Red Hat CloudForms includes Corvesta's required
infrastructure and management tools as well as a robust suite of
offerings around compliance and policy management, service catalog
management, automation and reporting, and optimization and
utilization toolsets.
Along with automation and management tools, Red Hat CloudForms'
support of multiple programming languages and the REST API allowed
Corvesta to customize modules for their web interface and quickly
develop test environments for those products through an automated
service catalog– reducing the process from several days to less
than 48 hours. Red Hat CloudForms' ability to run as an appliance
on a virtual machine also allowed the platform to easily integrate
into Corvesta's high availability and disaster recovery
infrastructure by following a standard cloning and migrating
process between data centers.
In the future, Corvesta expects to expand their virtualization
and storage resources, and migrate more proprietary resources to
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, especially as they continue to
grow their business in the oral health and related industries.
