What are Cloud Maps?

HP Cloud Maps are deployment recipes for automating routine scenarios. The value of a cloud map solution lies in eliminating unnecessary human touch points to provide a better experience and faster service for end customers while simultaneously reducing the possiblle introduction of human error into deployment processes. Instead of having customers submit a service request and waiting for a human to respond with a resolution, cloud maps allow for a customer to get something closer to self-service through pre-defined scenarios that can do everything from launch instances, to install operating systems, to configuring virtualized environments. James Grady explains how you can use Cloud Maps in your own cloud provisioning scenarios in this interview from HP Discover.
