Like many organizations, you may have a test environment encompassing multiple, diverse IT assets that require significant staff and budget to configure and manage them. This complexity can result in long test cycles that delay the timing of your product launches. IBM Infrastructure Optimization Services – IBM Smart Business Test Cloud helps you save capital and operating costs, reduce test cycle times, and minimize complexity and risks with a simple-to-use, self-service test platform that combines service request management, automated provisioning and configuration management. On demand provisioning of physical and virtualized test resources—including IBM and non-IBM components such as operating systems, middleware, storage, network, images and data—in a security-rich, private cloud environment helps you reduce capital expenses while gaining a dynamically scalable test environment to meet changing business needs.
