Composable Infrastructure brings together ideas like software-defined storage, software-defined networking and server virtualization into a single vendor-neutral platform that can be controlled by a single API.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/windowsitpro.com\/author\/gary-thome\">Gary Thome<\/a>, Vice President at HPE, <a href=\"http:\/\/windowsitpro.com\/all-about-converged-architecture\/just-what-heck-composable-infrastructure-anyway\">described composable infrastructure<\/a> as &#8221;\u00a0the next evolution in data center computing because it enables IT organizations to create the infrastructure they need with incredible velocity, and it does so while reducing the operational cost and complexity of traditional silo approaches. It\u2019s ideal for traditional workloads and environments, as well as newer cloud and mobile apps. Think of it as your infrastructure as code.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/david-chalmers-217763\/?ppe=1\">David Chalmers<\/a>, vice president and chief technologist at HPE,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.computerworlduk.com\/infrastructure\/composable-infrastructure-what-your-business-needs-know-3644939\/\">said that <\/a>&#8220;we are now at the point with composable infrastructure where you have infrastructure as code: literally a single command line or line of code to deploy a piece of resource to allow you to run your infrastructure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div class=\"lightsocial_element\"><a class=\"lightsocial_a\"
