Scale Computing Platform Overview

What is Scale Computing Platform?

Scale Computing was founded to fulfill an IT infrastructure need often hindered by the complexity, time, and resources that traditional virtualized IT environments demand. Today, Scale Computing delivers a platform solution for data center, edge computing, virtualization technology, and hyperconverged infrastructure to customers worldwide. Award-winning Scale Computing Platform eliminates the need for traditional virtualization software, disaster recovery software, servers, and shared storage, replacing these with a fully integrated, highly available system for running applications. 1. Simplicity Engineered Eliminate mundane management tasks and save IT administrators valuable time. SC//Platform's simplicity directly impacts IT with higher productivity and lower costs. Using patented HyperCore™ technology, the self-healing platform automatically identifies, mitigates, and corrects problems in the infrastructure in real time, enabling applications to achieve maximum uptime even when local IT resources and staff are scarce. 2. Scalable Plan the perfect future by not predicting it. Simply mix and match old and new hardware and applications on the same infrastructure for a future-proof environment that can scale up or down as needed. The storage system avoids issues inherent in traditional network storage approaches (SAN and NAS). By embedding storage with the hypervisor, resources can be automatically pooled across an entire cluster, and new storage is automatically added when new nodes are introduced. 3. Secure SC//Platform is designed to be 'Secure by Default,' meaning security isn't an option—it's a fundamental component ingrained in every aspect of the system. This approach eliminates the need for extensive configuration or additional security layers post-deployment. Unlike alternative solutions that require a long and complex “security best practices” checklist, SC//Platform limits the potential for misconfiguration vulnerabilities. 4. Manageable Scale Computing Fleet Manager combines centralized management with cloud and local automation, allowing infrastructure and applications to achieve and maintain the desired state throughout the entire life of the environment. Zero-touch provisioning decreases the time of installation by 90% or more Secure Link allows access to the HyperCore UI for in-depth cluster management with the click of a button without needing expensive or complex remote access solutions such as VPN or RDP Real-time monitoring of all workloads across a global fleet of SC//HyperCore clusters is made even easier with a searchable and customizable view 5. Cost-Effective Reduce IT infrastructure costs in almost every way. Hidden IT infrastructure costs associated with downtime, management, maintenance, training, and consulting are reduced to almost nothing.

"Perfect Virtual System for Small to Mid size IT."

5/5

What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

Very simple and user friendly web based interface to build and manage VMs. Additionally Support is incredible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

There is limited options for cloud VMs and the cost is high for smaller businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Scale Computing Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have been using Scale for about 8 years I think. We were originally all physical servers and needed a simple and effective solution for virtulizing and creating redundant backups. Once we got our initial cluster we quickly added a second so that we could have replication at a second site to provide greater disaster prevention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Migration from VMware to Scale"

5/5

What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

The Scale console is very simple to use. At one of our locations we have two vmware esxi servers and managing them required by attention always as other staff could not remember all the steps involved.

We moved to Scale when server refresh was upon us because with its simplicity we could train other tech staff on how to manage it.

Having the server, storage and hypervisor all from one vendor is a huge plus too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scale Computing Platform?

We have not found anything we dislike about Scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mac-ify your virtualization experience"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Scale Computing Platform?

The platform is simple. Contrasiting it with competing products, I think of it like MacOS vs. Linux. Under the hood, they're both Unix like, but MacOS is WAY simpler to use while not sacrificing how solid it is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
