Installation Guide

HP CloudSystem Enterprise expands on CloudSystem Foundation by integrating servers,
storage, networking, security, and management to automate the lifecycle for hybrid service
delivery. Template architects use Enterprise to create infrastructure templates, which are offered
as services in the Marketplace Portal. When a cloud user requests a service from the catalog,
Enterprise automatically provisions the servers, storage, and networking designed in the
service.
Enterprise is installed from Foundation and uses the Foundation platform to conduct management
tasks. Enterprise includes the following components:
The Enterprise appliance contains the core functionality of the Enterprise offering, including
HP Cloud Service Automation (HP CSA), the Marketplace Portal, Topology Designer and
Sequential Designer.
The Marketplace Portal displays offerings that can be purchased and applied to a
cloud environment.
Enterprise includes two designers, Topology Design and Sequential Design. The
Topology Designer is an easy to use solution for infrastructure provisioning designs.
Sequential Designer handles more complex application provisioning designs. Designs
from both designers are offered as services in the Marketplace Portal.
HP CSA is the administrative portal for the Enterprise appliance. Designs are created
in the HP CSA portal.
