Red Hat Migration Center

Systems Management for Your Migration

Completing your migration to a new platform or middleware solution is the first step. Once the migration is done, you need the right tools in place to easily and cost effectively manage your new technology an on-going basis.

Red Hat's systems management tools were designed from the ground up to work with Red Hat Enterprise Linux and JBoss Middleware. Whether you need to automate your linux environment or manage your applications, the right management tools can maximize the productivity of your IT systems and staff while minimizing costs.

Five Benefits of Management

  • Higher availability and fewer outages - Properly patched and configured systems are less likely to have problems, and when they do have problems are easier to troubleshoot.
  • Increased administrator productivity - In today's tight economic times, IT organizations are increasingly having to do more with less. Having the tools in place to manage multiple systems, as easily as you manage one system is one of the best ways to maximize IT resources.
  • Automation of routine tasks - Many IT processes such as patch management, provisioning, and configuration management are ripe for automation. Automating routine tasks, not only reduces errors but also frees up IT resources to work on higher value projects that drive move value to the business.
  • Flexible and agile IT infrastructure - Business changes at a rapid pace today and that requires IT organizations to provide an agile infrastructure to meet the needs of the business. Systems Management tools help facilitate system changes, allowing for a more flexible and agile infrastructure.
  • Cost savings and improved ROI - Systems Management tools can easily double the number of systems each administrator can manage. You can avoid having to hire additional staff to manage the increasing number of systems in your environment.
