DynamicOps announced a major intelligent resource management enhancement to the DynamicOps Cloud Automation Center: a user-aware self-service VM reconfiguration capability.

Now, DynamicOps customers can automate and streamline ongoing VM management and, as a result, cut ongoing management service delivery from days to minutes.

DynamicOps’ new VM reconfiguration feature makes it easy to boost resource efficiencies throughout their lifecycle by combining broad self-service and automation capabilities with granular governance.

“To get the best ROI from cloud computing, enterprises need to tightly control resources while also providing more flexibility and autonomy for users,” said Chad Jones, VP of Strategy and Product Management, DynamicOps. “Our new capability gives IT the ability to drive much more efficient resource utilization while providing users with the choice they need to do their jobs. We’re enabling enterprises to move far beyond the partial automation that other cloud vendors offer by enforcing granular governance with policies instead of people.”

By leveraging user-aware governance, IT can create policies upfront that dictate everything from who is allowed to reconfigure VMs, which machine types they can reconfigure, and how many resources they can consume per machine type, to which pool of resources will be tapped and whether approvals are required. This helps enterprises retain control over resources and costs, while addressing the critical needs for self-service management and personalization of resources.
