Figure 3. Automating workflows

HP Insight Orchestration provides numerous execution points for automated workflow execution. Template designers can easily attach

workflows to run when users create services, add servers, change lease terms, put services on standby, and take other actions.

HP Operations Orchestration automates processes

and orchestrates complex IT workflows across your

enterprise data center. The software helps you simplify

routine tasks as well as complex change orchestration

and workflows.

In addition, HP Insight Orchestration is designed to

integrate with existing systems and processes from HP

and third parties.

For example, you might connect HP

Insight Orchestration to HP Service Manager software

or to a third-party ticketing system for change man age -

ment processes. Or you might configure your solu tion

to pass service cost data to billing and chargeback

systems, or to add resources to, or remove them from,

a load balancer or backup schedule. You can also

seamlessly integrate with HP Server Automation soft-

ware to include the application environment and

ongoing lifecycle management and compliance. HP

offers professional services to assist your organization

with different types of integration efforts.

Integration may require additional licenses and services.
