RightScale Review

Get A Single View Of All Cloud-Based Resources

One of the noteworthy features offered by RightScale Cloud Management is that it helps IT teams and professionals organize their cloud-based resources and assets in a single console. Whether they are managing virtual or bare metal servers, container services, or public or private clouds; the solution provides them with a single view of all their resource pools.

Apply Universal Tags

In addition, the cloud management solution uses universal tags that can be applied to cloud-based resources. This makes it easy for users to find and monitor any asset on their cloud-based infrastructures.

Simplify Cloud Management

RightScale Cloud Management streamlines the management of cloud-based resources. It permits users to track all their cloud-based applications and workloads from a central location. They can also create notification policies that define and describe the automatic alerts being sent to team members, such as when issues are escalated,  as well as set up recovery actions that are initiated automatically.

Auto-Scaling Feature

RightScale Cloud Management comes with automation tools and capabilities which make it easy for operations teams to perform repetitive tasks as they manage multiple cloud environments and resources. For example, it has an auto-scaling feature that ensures that cloud-based applications are able to handle any load based exactly on what is being demanded by such load, thereby preventing overprovisioning.

Keep Workloads Up To Date Through Scripting And Patching

In addition, the solution delivers scripting and patching capabilities that make sure that workloads are up to date and can respond to changes happening in the operations of the organization or business.

Define Access Controls And User Permissions

Governance is another noteworthy feature available in RightScale Cloud Management. With this feature, permission levels can be set up that specify which team members can access the cloud-based resources and what specific resources they can access. Additionally, as access controls and permission levels are defined, users will be able to integrate the solution with their existing directory services to simplify the authentication of authorized individuals.

Asset Management And Versioning

As part of its governance features, the solution provides asset management and versioning capabilities by which users will be able to come up with configurations that are consistent across their cloud environments. Whenever there are changes made to assets and their configurations anytime, those changes can be easily tracked. 

Track Changes Using Audit Trails

Also, RightScale Cloud Management generates audit trails that give users complete visibility of the specific changes made in their cloud-based infrastructures as well as the people who made those changes and the dates when those changes were made.
