SOLICITATION # CH16012 Computing power and resources are load -balanced across infrastructure and replicated to redundant datacenters in the event of a disaster. Client -specific data stored in databases are logically separated from other clients' data providing segmentation and isolation. VirtueStream Key to Virtustream solution is its proprietary and patented solution of uVM technology, which is effectively a granular solution for resource pooling, providing application performance, pay for consumption only and segregate resources for security and compliance, but aggregate for cost efficiency. In addition, Virtustream is currently one of very few Cloud Service Provider with capabilities for Geo-Fencing and Geo-Tagging of the virtual machines to a specific data center, and getting down to cluster and host machine level. The resources are pooled based on two specific criteria: -ONLY Accessible Using Private Network — We call this pool "Enterprise" which most of Virtustream's IaaS workload is residing. There is no direct access from Internet into this pool. This is protected via a pair of routing and firewall from any other zones. 8.1.2.4 NIST Characteristic - Rapid Elasticity: Provide a brief written description of how the cloud solutions proposed satisfies this NIST Characteristic. Attest capability and briefly describe how rapid elasticity technical capability is met. CA APM CA API Management SaaS (SaaS APIM) has been built from the ground up to be a multi -tenanted, SaaS-based offering that leverages Amazon's infrastructure to scale appropriately; utilize a continuous integration model to provide for frequent updates; and fail over across multiple availability zones. MAA The pool of web and application servers can be grown or shrunk when necessary. Any changes to the size of the pool remains transparent to end -users and customers, and would only be done by CA MAA systems administrators. CA Agile This is a SaaS service, therefore, CA monitors all system resources and have alerting mechanisms when resource constraints have reached a defined threshold. Data storage and network capacity are monitored and scaled to meet current client demands. Compute resources are scaled to meet client processing requirements ASM All ASM core servers are dedicated physical servers; there is no elasticity. The ASM Public Status Pages are served from web servers in the Amazon Cloud, and the pool of web servers can be grown or shrunk if necessary. Any changes to the size of the pool would be transparent to end -users and customers, and would only be done by CA ASM systems administrators. Since this is a SaaS environment the CA SaaS Operations and delivery along with RackSpace are responsible for management of the capacity and monitoring. Google Saas, Google Apps can scale from 1 user to tens of thousand users. The usage of the services included are designed to horizontal scale within the confines of the per user storage allocation. Google Apps can be purchased with a 30gb per user allocation or with unlimited storage. Paas/laaS, Google Cloud Platform was designed to scale on demand both in terms of available resources for applications designed and running on Google App Engine but also Compute Engine resources and more. AODocs AODocs can scale from one user to tens of thousand users. The storage is based on the Google Apps storage which could be from 30Gb to unlimited storage depending on the Google Apps subscription. Virtru Presently we over -provision services by 2.5x peak traffic in order to handle spikes. We are in the process of implementing horizontal scaling of all services and expect to have that work completed in the second half of 2016. Salesforce User Authentication Logon is form -based. When users log into the Salesforce application, they submit a username and password, which are sent to Salesforce via an TLS-encrypted session. carahsoft 33 carahsoft
