BMC Helix Continuous Optimization

Technology resources, on-premises, cloud, Kubernetes, Pods, and containers fuel your business and innovation. Do you have the right resources to satisfy business and customer expectations? Without insights into risk, efficiency, and cost, the assurance of your business services can be disrupted.

• With consolidated views of overall health and status of business services, application and infrastructure metrics provide insights into the risk, efficiency, and cost of the resources running a service
• Visibility across the enterprise, including physical, virtual, container, and cloud infrastructure resources helps maximize performance, availability, and service
• Container Risk Identification provides increased visibility and control of overallocated Pods and containers, and automated optimizations for multi-cloud resources to reduce service slowdowns
• Self-service dashboards and custom views that keep stakeholders informed of the state of technology resources running their business services, applications, and environments
• Exception-based reporting that alerts on anomalous conditions that could lead to business interruption

Make the most of the investments that run your business today and support growth in the future. Use artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, machine learning, and automation to optimize resources, lower costs, and increase efficiency.

• Dynamically optimize infrastructure resources for the varying demands of your applications including those based on Kubernetes, microservices, containers, and Pods
• Increase container efficiency through Pod recommendations and “what-if” planning
• Right-size on-premises and cloud resources with automated recommendations and visualize before and after usage models
• Terminate and reclaim unused resources based on automated recommendations with historical explanations of resource use
• Adjust resource configurations with predictive saturation alerts and notifications
• Resolve resource constraints using business KPIs and prevent business service disruption

Continuous optimization ensures you have the technology resources necessary for service assurance today and tomorrow.

• Plan and simulate workload migrations to the cloud with right-sized recommendations along with cost and performance comparisons
• Plan for changes in business demand with correlation analysis and the impact of resource modifications on business KPIs 
• Model "what-if" scenarios for cloud migrations and Kubernetes workload placement including decommissioning resources, changes or upgrades in resources, or validating disaster recovery scenarios
• Reserve resources for new applications and business services with a calendar view of committed and available resources
