Abstract
This paper proposes a service catalog service integrated with virtualized systems aiming at the possibility of raising and automating the availability in an IT (Information Technology) infrastructure. This paper demonstrates that aligning the server virtualization concepts and infrastructure management tools is possible to have gains in time and costs when compared to systems without automated service catalog. The main results presented illustrates that the use of a virtualized environment, with a standard services catalog and specific tools for infrastructure management, provides a time saving, reducing the request interval to a new server from several days to a few hours.
