"The automation replaces manual decisions and intervention by Tivoli, Moab software from Adaptive Computing, and Websphere Web Portal to enable ISVs to request a reservation, get real-time availability information, book the reservation, and have the resources provisioned from scratch in less than two real-time hours."

IBM Virtual Loaner Program

Overview

Participants can access IBM servers, operating systems, and middleware—remotely—free of charge.

Challenge

IBM needed a scheduling and policy engine that could integrate with IBM products and provide a central repository for time- and criteria-based business-process automation.

Solution

Moab_^® delivered key capabilities to enable the VLP program to function as desired, including automated decision-making for SLA enforcement and real-time information availability.

Results

The combined solution from IBM and Adaptive Computing allowed the Virtual Loaner Program to be launched on time while incorporating scheduling and automation features that were more than six months ahead of schedule.
