5. Gartner defined a Cloud
Management Platform as
“integrated products that provide for the management of
public, private and hybrid cloud environments. The
minimum requirements to be included in this category
are products that incorporate self-service interfaces,
provision system images, enable metering and billing,
and provide for some degree of workload optimization
through established policies. “

7. Deliver IT resources as
Infrastructure as a Service
● Remove cause for Shadow IT
● Self Service Portal
● Use VMware, OpenStack,
Hyper-V, RHV where
appropriate, but hide
complexity
● Multi-Tenancy, Chargeback,
Reporting

8. Integration with OpenShift and Ansible
● OpenShift provides true PaaS
capabilities
● Ansible allows to deploy and
customize any software on a
given machine
● Ansible supports both new and
pre-existing environments

VISIBILITY
25. • View connections from the container all
the way down through the underlying
infrastructure in one interface.
• Apply automation rules and enforce
policies for deployed containers.
• Scan containers for known
vulnerabilities with OpenSCAP.

Which Containers run on this Pod?
On which Node does it run on?
Which Services work with it?
Is it controlled by a Replicator?

○ CloudForms collects the results
● Scans scheduled at regular intervals and on a new Image discovery
● Out-of-the-Box Policies for Image compliance
○ Additional ones can be created by the users
● Results are pushed into OpenShift annotating Images
