The self-service portal allows users to select preconfigured operating system templates from the public catalog and accordingly modify the virtual machine’s performance parameters (CPU, RAM, storage) during configuration as per requirements. The operating system, the antivirus software (Windows) and the monitoring software, along with the latest security patches are then fully installed automatically.

Even during the installation the virtual machine is automatically integrated into the T-Systems’ operating environment, including all the necessary configurations and assignments. T-Systems’ support and active 24/7 monitoring are available following the installation. The virtual machine is ready to run. Where necessary, administrative access can be applied for on a temporary basis in order to install or configure the application. Virtual machines running Microsoft Windows can be integrated into the separate Active Directory environment.
