Do you worry about beginning to use a cloud environment,
migrating to one, or operating a cloud environment?

  • Lack of expertise in beginning to use a cloud service or migrating to the cloud

    Helps reduce the workload of design and deployment tasks.


    • Recommends the optimal configuration based on your requirements

    • Automatically generates IaC* code for deployment

    *Infrastructure as Code

  • Managing multiple cloud environments is challenging and incurs additional operational expenses

    Ensures the quality and efficiency of operational tasks.


    • Centralized management of configuration information

    • Automates routine tasks previously done manually

  • Worried about a lack of experience in cloud operations

    The NTT Docomo Group’s engineers in Japan consult with and support customers to solve the challenges they face.


    • Japanese-language manuals available

    • Provides training while supporting customers until in-house operation becomes possible

Features

Makes it possible to design servers by drawing a diagram

Using the recommendation function, you can easily design an environment by selecting templates for testing, production, or high-availability environments and entering information in the required fields as instructed on the screen. Parameters are also checked, significantly increasing the efficiency of the process.

Also, past configurations can be saved as templates for the quick reuse of the same design, making it possible to accumulate design know-how and reutilize designs.

Environmental information, execution command history, etc. can be managed centrally and compared

You can use the visualization function to visually and centrally manage environment configuration information.
The daily automatic snapshot function tracks changes and differences, helping with tasks such as security checks.

Also, the dashboard function allows you to view cloud usage expenses, environment data, and command history on a single screen, making it possible to manage complex cloud operations in a simple and efficient way.

Prevents human error and reduces work time and simplifies work

Using the automation function, deployment is executed using IaC* that is automatically generated using design data in deployment tasks, preventing human error and significantly reducing deployment time.

Also, in operational tasks, group-level tasks like information retrieval, configuration changes, and upgrades can be done automatically for cloud resources, allowing the person in charge of operation to directly manage daily operations automatically for a user-friendly experience.

*Infrastructure as Code

The NTT Docomo Group will provide full support from server deployment, design, and operation

Our SmartCloud Orchestrator is an ideal solution for customers interested in cloud environments or who are using an on-premises environment and have concerns about migrating to a cloud environment.
The NTT Docomo Group provides full support from cloud deployment to operations, ensuring peace of mind even for first-time cloud users, and the Group continues to assist the customer with daily operations and management by addressing the challenges they face even after beginning to use a cloud environment.

Service Overview

SmartCloud Orchestrator is a solution that provides integrated support from infrastructure deployment to operations in public cloud environments, helping to improve operational efficiency and the quality of services.

SmartCloud Orchestrator is a service featuring recommendation, visualization, and automation capabilities.
Recommendation: Enables environment design using templates for simple, redundant, and high-performance configurations.
Visualization: Visually displays the configuration of cloud resources, such as networks and servers, on a GUI.
Automation: Executes single actions on resources or a series of combined actions (scenarios).

Benefits of Adoption

Using SmartCloud Orchestrator makes it possible to streamline deployment and operations and optimize cloud usage expenses.

Operational Costs: From pre-adoption to post-adoption, automation of deployment and provisioning reduces operational costs by approximately 70%. This figure is based on past implementation cases, and the reduction effect may vary depending on the customer’s environment.
Cloud Usage Expenses: From pre-adoption to post-adoption, unnecessary services and resources are canceled or modified, reducing cloud usage expenses by approximately 30%. This figure is an estimate based on reports from research organizations.

Case Studies

Customers managing and deploying multiple cloud environments

Background Behind Adoption

Services were provided by building separate Azure environments for each user. However, much of the work for setting up new environments was done manually, causing an increase in person-hours and outsourcing costs as the number of users grew.

Results After Adoption

By registering standard environments as templates in SmartCloud Orchestrator, it became easy to build similar or development or test environments. The partial automation of design and deployment tasks helped shorten work timelines, standardize workloads, and ensure quality.

Customers undertaking a large-scale migration to the cloud

Background Behind Adoption

In large-scale projects where systems are migrated to the cloud (e.g., AWS), it is necessary to improve the overall efficiency of the project, reduce costs, ensure quality, and establish management and operational workflows for the deployed environments.

Results After Adoption

Using SmartCloud Orchestrator, we improved the efficiency of environment design and deployment tasks. Additionally, project governance was strengthened by managing the execution history during environment changes, and operational staff were trained by SIs to support operations.
