ManageIQ
ManageIQ
Manage containers, virtual machines, networks, and storage from a single platform. Connect ManageIQ to your virtualization, container, network, and storage management systems, where it will discover inventory, map relationships, and listen for changes. The result is a rich, up-to-date and cross-referenced dataset that forms the basis for our advanced management capabilities. Define bundles of resources and publish them in a service catalog, from where they can be ordered by end users. Once provisioned, you can manage the full life cycle of a service, including policy, compliance, delegated operations, chargeback/showback, and retirement. Scan the contents of your VMs, hosts, and containers, and combine with auto discovery data to create advanced security and compliance policies. Content scanning works without the help of an agent and therefore works for any VM including foreign and un-cooperative ones. -
