What it is

body: | Morpheus puts an ordering and management layer over the platforms already in place. vSphere, a hyperscaler and Kubernetes appear in the same catalogue. What a team may order, how it gets named and what it costs are defined once. It installs on Linux, on-premises or in a public cloud, and it reaches the systems around it through integrations rather than through code: load balancers, backup, DNS and IPAM, ITSM, and the DevOps tools a team already runs, Ansible, Terraform, Puppet and Jenkins among them. Scripts that exist keep working, from disk or from a Git repository. - heading:

What changed

body: | Morpheus was an independent company. HPE acquired Morpheus Data, and the product is HPE Morpheus Software now. That is not only a badge: it sits at the top of an HPE software family, with Morpheus VM Essentials underneath it as the virtualization tier, and HPE licenses both **per socket** rather than per core. Per socket is the part worth reading twice if you are costing a way out of a per-core licence. - heading:

What it is for

body: | Estates with more than one target platform and more than one team asking for things. That is exactly where the effort it removes comes from: same request, different routes, no shared rule. With one platform and one team, rolling it out does not pay for itself. - heading:

What to watch

body: | An automation layer encodes the processes you have. Where no rule exists, it makes the absence visible, and that is the uncomfortable part of any rollout. Those decisions belong to the operating model, not to the product.status: corpus: 295 services: - {ref: services/orchestration-automation, score: 0.89} - {ref: services/cloud, score: 0.49} - {ref: services/linux-container, score: 0.40} - {ref: services/platform, score: 0.30} posts: - {ref: posts/morpheus-cloud-management-plattform, score: 0.66} - {ref: posts/my-solution-to-share-powershell-scripts, score: 0.51} - {ref: posts/breaking-and-fixing-gitlab, score: 0.34} - {ref: posts/how-to-intelligent-hub-macos-not-synchronizing-after-active-directory-user-name-change, score: 0.29} - {ref: posts/how-to-fix-windows-server-internet-access-when-the-default-route-points-to-tself, score: 0.28} experts: - {ref: experts/christian-schnyder, score: 0.58} - {ref: experts/fabian-faessler, score: 0.39} - {ref: experts/patrick-pletscher, score: 0.39} neighbours: - {ref: solutions/hpe/hpe-private-cloud-business-edition-pcbe, score: 0.46} - {ref: solutions/hpe/hpe-greenlake, score: 0.41} - {ref: solutions/hpe/hpe-private-cloud-ai, score: 0.41}

What it is

Morpheus puts an ordering and management layer over the platforms already in place. vSphere, a hyperscaler and Kubernetes appear in the same catalogue. What a team may order, how it gets named and what it costs are defined once.

It installs on Linux, on-premises or in a public cloud, and it reaches the systems around it through integrations rather than through code: load balancers, backup, DNS and IPAM, ITSM, and the DevOps tools a team already runs, Ansible, Terraform, Puppet and Jenkins among them. Scripts that exist keep working, from disk or from a Git repository.

What changed

Morpheus was an independent company. HPE acquired Morpheus Data, and the product is HPE Morpheus Software now. That is not only a badge: it sits at the top of an HPE software family, with Morpheus VM Essentials underneath it as the virtualization tier, and HPE licenses both per socket rather than per core.

Per socket is the part worth reading twice if you are costing a way out of a per-core licence.

What it is for

Estates with more than one target platform and more than one team asking for things. That is exactly where the effort it removes comes from: same request, different routes, no shared rule.

With one platform and one team, rolling it out does not pay for itself.

What to watch

An automation layer encodes the processes you have. Where no rule exists, it makes the absence visible, and that is the uncomfortable part of any rollout. Those decisions belong to the operating model, not to the product.

What we do with it

Draft, unreviewed

Draft, not yet reviewed. The value nearly always shows up on the second use case rather than the first. One ordering path seldom justifies the setup. Once naming, entitlements and teardown live in one place, though, every path after that is close to free.

This paragraph is a draft and nobody at soulTec has confirmed it yet. Everything above it describes the product and is checkable against the vendor.
