IBM Is excited to announce the next step in the innovation of our industry leading FinOps solution. Today, we launched the first native integration between IBM Turbonomic and IBM Apptio, available via Private Preview, with release <8.13.6> and release <R12.11.9> respectively. This powerful combination of Apptio and Turbonomic together enables you to identify opportunities to optimize IT infrastructure costs and take actions to improve efficiency while safely assuring performance. This provides you with unparalleled insights and control over your financial and operational metrics, maximizing efficiency.
How it works
The integration of Turbonomic and Apptio brings together powerful capabilities for managing hybrid multicloud environments. This combination is extremely valuable for IT operations having to consistently manage vast, complex public cloud and data center resources together across the globe. The integration enables organizations to have a clear view of the health of their environment and control over their IT landscape while optimizing costs and performance effectively.
Turbonomic continuously analyses resource usage across Containers, Cloud and On-premises workloads generating actions that you can safely automate to continuously reduce waste while assuring performance. These actions can now be sent into Apptio Costing Standard, where the recommendations are quantified, visualized and aligned to the TBM Solutions framework.
With this integration, Apptio customers that integrate with Turbonomic now benefit from:
- Quantify and visualize the potential savings and investments related to optimization opportunities, to understand their financial impact
- View optimization opportunities aligned to your TBM framework, for clear reporting and alignment with lines of business, vendors and applications
- Track and communicate realized savings over time, to see the value derived by automating the execution of the optimization actions in IBM Turbonomic.
- Direct operations teams to prioritize the automated execution of IBM Turbonomic optimization actions that yield the most benefit in terms of financial cost efficiency without compromising application performance.
This integration helps bridge the work between finance and operations teams to take actions on cost and performance optimization and advance your FinOps initiatives. If you have interest in early access, contact your IBM representative or book a meeting today.
