Overview
HyperCloud Protal supports Inventory management for Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure Accounts only.
Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud platform fail to provide insights into your IaaS services and Product landscape. This leads to complications, inefficiencies like overpayment for cloud subscriptions, and a definitive lack of understanding of your environment.
The HyperCloud™ Platform (HCP) discovers resources on your public cloud platform continuously, irrespective of the location. The HCP categorizes your on-premise, cloud, or SaaS-based resources and analyzes each asset so you can understand, manage, and secure your resource inventory.
With our Enhanced Cloud Inventory Management feature you can:
Track resources
Manage inventory
Pinpoint changes to your environment
Drill down to know about your individual resources
Get an overview of your deployment environment using our Dashboard widgets, Summary, or Resource Maps.
Instantly identify the resources in your environment that have stopped running or are unused.
View and manage your Public Cloud Services, Assets, Resources, and Instances from one place.
note
Inventory Rediscovery
Microsoft Azure accounts are region independent. If you manually trigger a rediscovery, the HCP will automatically discover all your resources irrespective of their location.
Amazon Web Service (AWS) accounts are region-dependent. You will have to manually trigger the resource rediscovery process on the AWS cloud platform by selecting your AWS account and the region.
