• Streamline processes, prevent errors and reduce management overhead
  
  
• Implement policy-based Linux lifecycle management processes, using proven best practices, instead of ad-hoc fixes

If you're running an RPM-based Linux distribution (Red Hat, Novell/SuSE, CentOS, Fedora, etc.), are looking for ways to change / add capacity to your applications and services in minutes -- not days, and your environment demands rapid deployment and redeployment of Linux servers to meet your changing business needs, then Levanta is your ideal solution.
