BIRT iServer

Actuate BIRT iServer is cloud ready and cloud compatible, providing automatic elastic clustering with dynamic provisioning. An iServer cloud deployment can be implemented by any organization in a private cloud, a hybrid cloud or a public cloud.

• In a private cloud, the organization utilizes its own infrastructure, organizing and optimizing its capacity to provide content to users.
• In a hybrid cloud, the organization hosts part of its services on site, and contracts with a provider for offsite services; for example, an online retail store might host its own services onsite for 11 months of the year, but transfer those services to a cloud provider during the busy month of December.
• In a public cloud, an organization outsources its server service, “renting” the infrastructure required to run its applications.

The BIRT iServer provides organizations with the ability to create a stateless image, which can be added or removed from an installation as demand grows or subsides; this stateless image is what is deployed in a cloud. The power of the image is that it lets the application respond to varying degrees of demand.

• Automatically add or remove nodes from an iServer cluster.
• Add or delete nodes without powering up or down, preventing service interruptions and facilitating 24/7 uptime
• Provide multi-account and multi-tenancy; vendor can have multiple customers that can have sub customers
• Provide vendor and account-specific instance clustering; iServer can be configured to adapt to a growing customer base
• Support and manage of thousands of volumes in an environment

Benefits of this configuration include:

• Lowered maintenance costs
• Decreased/minimal administration costs
• Increased/decreased processing power, adjustable on demand
• Simplified addition/deletion of nodes as required with stateless image
• Shared resources; multi-tenant configuration and sharing among companies/departments/sites
• Unlimited growth
• Enabled multinational cloud support, allowing multinational clients to determine data storage location
• Unlimited data storage and segregation
