Smart Scale

Automatically adjust server power to control costs of public-cloud deployments

Power servers on and off based on usage, load, and peak times to optimize your infrastructure, predict costs, and ensure availability.
Manage your capacity to accommodate peaks in demand or end-user schedules and behaviors with load- or scheduled-based scaling.

Make IT more agile while lowering costs

Design, deploy, and manage application services from anywhere, on any device, though a cloud-based management console. A low initial investment and flexible pay-as-you-go model allows you to incrementally invest in the product subscription as value is realized. The cloud-based delivery model requires limited on-premises installation of software, allowing painless upgrades as additional functionality is added to the product.
