VMLogix LabManager

VMLogix helps you simplify and automate build, test and deployment processes by harnessing the power of virtualization technology. With LabManager, you can

• Lower the cost of software delivery through consolidation, sharing and self-serve usage of IT infrastructure.
• Shorten release cycles and accelerate time to market by increasing the frequency and parallelization of build and test processes.
• Improve software quality by automating previously manual and error prone build and test processes and maximizing test coverage.

solution overview

VMLogix LabManager solution fully automates each of the following processes:

Build
VMLogix LabManager helps software developers and testers create a comprehensive configuration library of build, test, and production environments. Using Image Builder, a complete software stack, consisting of operating system, applications and data, can be specified and then built on-demand without manual user intervention.

Share
Once a configuration is built, it can then be shared, replicated, and synchronized among multiple teams, locations, and outsourcing partners. This prevents virtual machine sprawl, ensures repeatability of delivery processes, and maximizes compliance of configurations used across teams. Furthermore, distributed teams can now share server, network, and storage infrastructure for software development, maximizing utilization and minimizing redundancy of valuable IT resources.

Deploy
Multi-machine configurations can be instantly deployed and synchronized in a completely secure, isolated, and network-fenced environment. VMLogix LabManager not only enforces self-service policies, quotas, and permissions, but also optimizes deployments for maximum performance with dynamic pooling of virtual and physical infrastructure and load balancing.
