HPE Helion CloudSystem Accelerator Service

HPE Technology Consulting

Service overview

HPE Helion CloudSystem Accelerator Service is designed to help you build a cloud based on HPE Helion OpenStack, Cloud Service Automation, and Operations Orchestration. These foundation services are intended to be used specifically for test and development purposes. They can then be expanded to full production private/public cloud environments with the purchase of additional services, further augmenting them to accommodate a full production environment. HPE Helion CloudSystem Accelerator Service, whose service features are more fully described below, can help address your need to design, validate, and deploy an on-premises HPE CloudSystem platform in a test and development environment.

HPE Helion CloudSystem Accelerator Service provides the initial configuration of the HPE Helion CloudSystem foundation. Delivered in four phases, the service includes initial onsite or remote configuration and deployment of the HPE CloudSystem platform and onboarding and management of up to two VM images. The service also includes a working session intended to help you determine how the CloudSystem can best be integrated with your service development lifecycle. Consultants will provide input based upon HPE best practices to help you understand what is needed to create a service that can be deployed by the CloudSystem, and what is typically necessary to manage CloudSystem installation as part of your overall operations environment.

This service also includes CloudSystem software installation, along with a demonstration of basic software features and capabilities within your environment. HPE Helion CloudSystem Accelerator Service delivers the necessary foundation services, as identified below, to help you take advantage of this private cloud environment and deploy infrastructure as a service (IaaS) services once your CloudSystem installation has been completed.

As part of this service, an HPE project manager and an HPE Helion Cloud consultant, solution architect, and technical consultant will be assigned to help prepare your organization for the installation, guide your team through the installation process, answer questions, and facilitate the service development lifecycle working session, as more fully described with the ‘Service features’ table below.

This service is delivered in four phases:

•Pre-engagement and review phase (Remote delivery)

•Planning and design definition phase (Onsite or remote delivery)

•Helion CloudSystem configuration and validation (Onsite or remote delivery)

•Wrap-up phase (Onsite or remote delivery)

This service includes basic implementation for your initial deployment of the HPE CloudSystem IaaS environment and is not intended to provide full production readiness without additional planning, acceptance testing, and integration, which are outside the scope of these services. The service includes deployment of the HPE Helion CloudSystem solution, support for IaaS service templates (up to two customized Windows® or Linux OS images), and integration of the CloudSystem Automation (CSA) Marketplace Portal. As part of the service development lifecycle working session, these service features will be defined, and each will be aligned with specific business requirements or desired outcomes, helping to promote an eective demonstration of value in phase 4 of the engagement.
