What makes CiRBA's analytics different?

While most organizations have significant amounts of excess capacity in virtual and cloud environments (often 2X what they actually need), CiRBA's customers have control over their infrastructure and are able to run leaner, more efficient data centers. Why? The CiRBA Control Console.

What makes CiRBA so different? We could talk about our patents, or the millions of dollars and years invested in honing and advancing our analytics, but it really comes down to the quality of our answers. Here are the top reasons why CiRBA's analytics are beyond compare:

1.
CiRBA's Visualization Provided by the
Efficiency and Risk Spectrum

Only CiRBA enables you to see, in a single glance, where the risks and inefficiencies exist across VM, host, cluster and environment levels in your environment. The ability to see whether infrastructure has too much resource, too little or just the right amount according to workload requirements and operational policies enables you to instantly understand what requires immediate attention and where opportunities lie for optimization.

CiRBA Provides Answers and Actions
- Not Just Data and Reports

There are lots of tools that provide basic utilization reporting. But only CiRBA provides explicit actions that detail where to place workloads and how much resource is required. So you know exactly what is required to reduce risk and maximize efficiency - today and in the future.

CiRBA Analytics Give You
Policy-based Control

Only CiRBA provides comprehensive modeling of business and operational policies to give you required control for the various environments and workloads within your enterprise. Policy-based control over infrastructure is required to:

Maximize efficiency and reduce spend
Ensure availability of mission critical systems
Ensure SLA and business policy compliance
Control operational volatility
Meet cyclical demands

CiRBA Analytics
are Predictive

CiRBA analytics are forward-looking to ensure that the right placement and allocation decisions are made for your workloads to reduce volatility and risk. Our analytics were also built to address the dynamic nature of virtual infrastructure, enabling you to book capacity for inbound and outbound systems and hosts to give you complete visibility into forward-looking infrastructure requirements.

CiRBA Strategically Places Workloads to
Maximize Density & Efficiency

Only CiRBA's analytics determines optimal workload placements in infrastructure to make the best use of capacity. It is only through strategically placing workloads considering all the requirements that organizations can safely maximize efficiency.

Only CiRBA Measures
How Efficient You Are

Most organizations rely on CPU or memory utilization to determine how efficient virtualized infrastructure is. This is a false measure of how much capacity is actually required.

Only CiRBA models exactly what infrastructure is required based on actual utilization AND all of the additional requirements and policies that impact where things can go and how much capacity they require, such as HA / DR requirements, business and operational policies, regulatory requirements, or planned excess capacity for growth. This measurement is called the CiRBA Efficiency Index and only CiRBA can provide it.

Index is Critical
