SC//Platform: Managing Applications On-Premises and in an External Data Center
Hyperconverged systems completely reinvent the mid-market data center, making the traditional concepts of independently sourcing, integrating, and managing servers, storage, and virtualization obsolete. These new data center building blocks deliver the seamless consolidation that most mid-sized companies want. They provide simple, scalable, and available systems that allow you to grow cost-effectively while reducing operational overhead.
Scale Computing Platform leads the HCI industry in simplicity and cost-effectiveness, all while providing the performance and availability an organization requires. There’s no need to manage the complexity of separate hardware and software components to support individual point solutions.
Benefits of Hyperconverged Infrastructure
While consolidating infrastructure and making more efficient use of server resources are driving factors, consider some of the most important and common hyperconvergence benefits
Simplicity
Eliminate the need for traditional virtualization software, disaster recovery software, servers, and shared storage, replacing these with a fully integrated, highly available system for running applications. Reduce the time spent managing overall infrastructure to focus on other valuable tasks.
Availability
The unique architecture and tight integration of system components allow the infrastructure to monitor itself. Self-healing intelligence automatically takes corrective action when error conditions are detected, without manual intervention, ensuring applications are always available and no data is lost—creating the most highly-available infrastructure solution possible. After ease of use, high availability of virtual machines is one of the biggest benefits SC//Platform customers gain.
Scalability
Future-proof architecture allows adding newer, faster, more advanced nodes to clusters with older nodes to take advantage of performance improvements and allow downtime-free retirement of older nodes as necessary. No need to over-provision and pay for idle resources. Seamlessly add or remove compute and storage capacity when needed, without disrupting applications or other workloads running in the environment.

Ohio Summit County Modernizes IT Infrastructure to Execute Flawless 2020 Election
In Summit County, Ohio’s fourth most populous county, its Board of Elections’ entire network infrastructure is managed by a team of just two full-time IT professionals. With an aging server infrastructure and a heavily scrutinized Presidential election fast approaching, this IT dynamic duo needed to modernize their systems, comply with strict new security directives, and do so quickly.
Analysts and industry leaders coined the term hyperconvergence, which represents an integrated approach to infrastructure that is simple, available and scalable. Hyperconvergence combines servers, storage, networking, virtualization and easy-to-use management software, all in one appliance to deliver the right infrastructure for your environment at just the right cost.
