Enterprise Virtualization Unisys uChargeback^TM

Gives organizations visibility and insight into the IT costs associated with business processes – across virtualized, heterogeneous environments. It unifies and simplifies data collection and analysis. And does so seamlessly – minimizing the workload on operations personnel.

Unisys uChargeback^TM helps organizations better govern their IT resources by:

• Improving visibility into IT usage and cost
• Creating a stronger correlation between the resources consumed by business functions and the IT budget so that:
  • IT resources are used more cost-effectively by business units
  • The business value provided by IT investments is clearly established
• Improving the ability to “right-size” the supply of IT resources to meet demand, while eliminating inefficiencies that result from purchasing “just-in-case” capacity
• Reducing costs by exposing areas where resources are underutilized
• Facilitating the ability to price IT services based on actual usage

Unisys uChargeback^TM offers a number of unique features including

• Data collection across physical and virtual environments, from both Microsoft® Windows™ and Linux® operating environments – all within a single toolset
• Automated “unification” of distributed application data to present a complete picture of the resources consumed – across tiers, operating systems, and even shared resources
• The ability to normalize costs across diverse server platforms, with varying cost bases and processing power
• Simple, non-intrusive managed data collection
• Flexible, efficient, and scalable data management
