2 ways to extend your IBM CloudBurst environment:

1. Ability to add blade compute servers to your initial IBM CloudBurst environment

2. IBM CloudBurst management server can be used to discover, enroll, manage and use resources across your environment

• Additional licenses required• Could be other x86, POWER and/or System

z resources• Most likely requires GTS or Lab Services

� Enables scalability by leveraging other enterprise resources

IBM CloudBurst is Extensible…

…More effectively manage and leverage your existing capital investment
