AUTOMATION

Primary designed goals of the AmdoSoft/

b4

architecture are to allow automation of

deployment, operations and maintenance tasks within the data center

Graphical Rules Engine (GRE):

The GRE is one of a kind in the field of IT

Automation. This unique technology allows the user

to utilize drag and drop methods in order to define

a logical reaction to a status-change.

Preventive Maintenance Automation:

Disk Management

Data Security Management

Space Management

Patch Management

File Management

Health and Perfomance Checks

System Trend Analysis

Automated Uptime

And many more…

Custom IT Automation:

Easy to use IT Automation platform

Automation of critical IT processes

AmdoSoft Systems | b4 | Functional Overview

GRAPHICAL RULES ENGINE

The

b4

Controller hosts a Graphical Rules Engine (GRE), which allows flexible method for

visualization, modeling and ad-hoc implementation of IT processes

Graphical modeling for how to react if certain events occur within the b4 controlled IT infrastructure

Automated rule checker detects syntax and semantic errors during the modeling process

b4 detects managed system events and changes state of objects accordingly

If an event or combination of events occurs, b4 triggers a specific rule to fix the problem

The Rules Engine executes and controls the activated rules

A notification per e-mail or SMS is sent to inform about the status of the operation

(5)

AmdoSoft Systems | b4 | Functional Overview

The Graphical Rules Engine within the

b4

controller allows the administrator easy creation of automation

rules using a simple drag & drop method.

All objects intergrated in

b4

are used in the form of graphical icons and can be linked to corresponding

commands.
