EcoSystem Suite - IT Environment Management
Problem Statement
A Traditional bad Solution
Industry surveys have highlighted that poor IT
Environments Management is a leading cause of
low development & testing productivity and
infrastructure overspend.
In an attempt to resolve these environmental issues,
organisations invariably look to shoe horn existing tooling or
use manual paper based methods. An approach that
typically leaves you with a solution that is poorly integrated,
expensive to maintain and not streamlined.
Infra Spend
Common issues faced:








Poor Env Usage Transparency
Environment Outages or Instability
Slow service support
Inconsistent (error prone) Operations
Environments Not Fit for Purpose
E2E Configuration Errors
Idle Infrastructure Proliferation
Unmanageable Project Contention

Average testing productivity
lost due to environments
issues is 20%.
Call: +61 2 8916 6391
A manual or partially-automated approach to managing you
Test Environments exposes you to disjointed operations,
non-standardised processes, redundant effort, poor E2E
visibility, human errors and software lifecycle delays.

EcoSystem Suite - IT Environment Management
What is EcoSystem?
EcoSystem is an IT Governance & Operations Framework specifically
built for managing your DevTest Environments.
The primary objectives of the EcoSystem tool is to introduce
operational discipline and transparency, where there was once chaos,
and provide ROI by enhancing E2E productivity through availability and
preventing infrastructure proliferation.
What is Visual Orchestrate?
VO is an “automation unification framework” that allows you to
broker and invoke all your cross lifecycle IT automation (e.g. deploy,
test, configure, batch, shakedown) through a central portal.
Combined with EcoSystem, VO allows you to improve your operations
and service layer through the controlled replacement of manual
methods (run sheet tasks) with automated alternatives.

The philosophy of GMSA is to build a solid platform for

the introduction of Environment Governance,

consequent Automation of manual methods.

Enov8 propose to improve organisations Environment Management

called GMSA.
OTHER
Important! Our automation philosophy is leverage oppose to
replace. This will allow existing specialist (best of breed) automation
& orchestration technologies to be employed effectively and
ultimately be better promoted.
