The technology consolidates real-time conditions for a fleet of clusters running Scale Computing HyperCore, scaling from one to over 50,000 clusters, including storage and compute resources for edge computing deployments. SC//Fleet Manager allows IT administrators to quickly identify issues using a single pane of glass and drill down into a specific cluster to diagnose and fix any problem, making it easier to manage and monitor the health of distributed IT infrastructure.
