APPLICATION LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT
By approaching applications as complete entities, not just
virtual machines (VMs), Calm orchestrates how applications
are created, consumed and governed. Calm delivers simple,
repeatable and automated management of applications across
a variety of environments, including private and public clouds.
Calm simplifies the set-up and management of custom
enterprise applications by incorporating all elements of
each application, including relevant VMs, configurations
and related binaries, into an easy-to-use-blueprint, making
the deployment and lifecycle management of common
applications automated and repeatable.
A unified application language provides a single flexible
construct to improve collaboration between teams and
avoid errors between disciplines.
