Cloud bursting with HP CloudSystem Matrix infrastructure orchestration and Savvis

 Is transparent to Matrix Self Service Portal users. The same service template used by Matrix to deploy servers

internally can also be used to deploy servers to Savvis.

 Is performed through a properties file that is used by Matrix.

API call translation

The Savvis interface adapter translates calls passed through the CloudSystem bursting interface so that they can be

understood by the Savvis API.

Savvis bursting connector

HP CloudSystem communicates with the Savvis public cloud using the Savvis Bursting Connector. The connector

adapts CloudSystem bursting calls so that they can be properly understood and executed by Savvis. As illustrated in

the following figure, software mapping and API call translation are embedded in the Savvis bursting connector:

The Savvis Bursting Connector is unique to Savvis. Connectors to other service providers will not be implemented in

the same way.
