QUNETIX SD - Software Distribution for Linux, UNIX and Windows

 

  Key Features and Benefits

Deployment Controls Centralized.

Package releases, manage target systems and administer distributions to the entire network from a central console.

Quick and Easy Release Creation

Our easy-to-use, workflow based GUI simplifies and automates release creation into four logical steps. Select your targets and build scripts into the release all inside the tool. The simple and visual task flow allows the user to drag and drop files and deployment scripts from anywhere on the network into the release. Distribution occurs at the click of a button.

Detailed Distribution and Impact Analysis Reports

Various reporting facilities within QUNETIX SD give the administrator access to information about a distribution in both the test phase and the actual distribution.

Secure Distribution QUNETIX SD provides security through state-of-the-art technology. Releases are locked down in a secure repository with controlled access. All communications and distributions are encrypted to ensure that your network is safe from intrusion.

Flexible

Allows the user to create platform specific distributions to multiple targets in a heterogeneous environment including; Windows 2000, 2003, XP, NT, Solaris and Linux.

Reliable

QUNETIX SD provides reliability by allowing for greater control of the distribution process. It also provides the confidence that all files selected for the release will be distributed to the selected target systems.

Audit Trail Creation

QUNETIX SD records every significant transaction in an easy-to-read audit trail.

Guaranteed Reproducibility

All portfolios are stored in the secure QUNETIX SD Database to guarantee that any release can be reproduced for distribution. Only releases designated as obsolete by the QUNETIX SD user can be deleted from the database.

Target Systems Group Management

Effectively manage departments or geographical locations using customized groups.

Distribute Any File Anywhere

Distribute any software file or application (whether shrink-wrapped or home-grown) to any system on the network. Customized scripting allows the user to control distributions on the target system.

Release Management

Easily duplicate all aspects of a release to distribute it to new locations or modify the parameters to create a new release. Manage the lifecycle of a release via the portfolio from creation to obsolescence.

On-Error Management

Users can specify optional actions for distribution failures such as:
Retry a failed release x number of times until successful.
Rollback a failed release to the previous release.
These facilities can be accessed manually at any time or the user can set policies for automatic on-error rollbacks. This feature ensures that a target system's prior state can be recreated should a distribution fail.

   
  Productivity and Control
   

QUNETIX SD reduces the manual intervention and its associated costs required to maintain software across the enterprise on a day-to-day basis by automating the distribution process. The reporting abilities of the product give the Administrator instant access to target system information and distribution success/failure results. This feature facilitates a response time that increases the overall network stability as the user can verify the integrity of every release distributed through QUNETIX.

QUNETIX offers a suite of TEST functions for each distribution including a Test Distribution and an Impact Analysis. An administrator can determine the impact of a release on a given target system OR discover how the release will affect the network load prior to distributing any release. Understanding the behaviour of a potential release prior to its distribution is essential to managing and controlling your enterprise environment - it will also save time and money by identifying problematic behaviour before it spreads throughout the network.

All administration commands are centralized in the GUI to limit access and control to a designated team. At the same time, all commands are issued from the central GUI to further reduce manual intervention and time required to perform distributions.
