Overview

What is Lenovo Open Cloud Automation

Lenovo Open Cloud Automation (LOC-A) is a software solution that rapidly deploys and manages the lifecycle of on-prem cloud infrastructure, regardless of its location: inside of a datacenter or distributed in your remote edge locations.

LOC-A uses Infrastructure as Code and GitOps best practices for consistent and error-free results. This speeds up on-prem cloud deployment on bare-metal servers and helps maintain a good security posture by avoiding configuration drift.

Capability and deployment

LOC-A has the capability to automate even the configuration of physical and virtual switches with specialized automation “plugins”, for a complete approach to infrastructure automation – network included. When it comes to deployment options, LOC-A adapts to your environment and can be installed on bare-metal, containers or virtual machines. Regardless of how it’s installed, LOC-A manages the lifecycle of on-prem clouds from Red Hat, VMware, or Kubernetes. At the Edge, LOC-A solves the logistical challenge. With zero-touch-provisioning of Lenovo edge servers and remote deployment of edge cloud software, bare-metal servers can be shipped directly to site, eliminating the need for golden images and staging environments.
