A Major New Step: ClearPath MCP
Platinum is Available

Things have been quite busy in the ClearPath® MCP world.

2019 has seen a number of updates, releases, and advances incorporated into the environment, making it richer, more secure, and better equipped to help you differentiate your business.

For instance, we updated the ClearPath Forward® Libra product line with several new systems. It all started with the introduction of the ClearPath Forward Libra 8500 systems – the most cutting-edge and powerful models we’ve released to date. The Libra 4500 and 6500 systems followed a few months later, adding new mid-range and high-end capabilities to the family.

Moreover, with the release of ClearPath MCP 19.0, you’re able to utilize a secure, contemporary, fully featured operating environment to drive a variety of business and IT strategies.

While doing all of this, we sharpened our emphasis on choice, freedom, and flexibility, so you have more ways – and more places – to put the environment to use. And nowhere are our efforts to prioritize choice more evident than in the ClearPath MCP Software Series.

From the very start, the ClearPath MCP Software Series has been designed to push the boundaries of what’s possible with a ClearPath Forward system.

Whether it’s integrated application development, modernization, and maintenance, or a range of full production environments, you can use the Software Series to actively redefine how you operate, go to market, and support internal and external stakeholders.

And with freedom of choice as a guiding principle, we’re thrilled to announce the latest addition to the ClearPath MCP Software Series.

That’s right: ClearPath MCP Platinum has arrived!

True, High-End Power

MCP Platinum represents the next major step in the evolution of the ClearPath MCP Software Series. With it, you’ll have access to a software-based MCP implementation that delivers high-end production capacity on par with ClearPath Forward Libra 6000 systems.

And as with all ClearPath MCP Software Series deliverables, you can run MCP Platinum on your choice of compatible Intel® hardware or VMware® and Microsoft® Hyper-V® hypervisor platforms. So not only will you have the flexibility to pick where MCP Platinum resides, you’ll take advantage of new ways to use hardware you may already have in your data center.

Plus, MPC Platinum offers you the flexibility to utilize a licensing model that best fits your organization’s specific business objectives and performance requirements.

With the product’s consumption-based pricing, you can leverage an industry-standard private cloud pricing model that makes costs predictable, helps you avoid over-provisioning, and makes additional processing power available as business and IT needs dictate.

Or, you can opt for a more traditional capacity-based model that’s great for supporting consistent workload demands, while still offering the agility to tap into additional performance when you need to accommodate sudden spikes in demand.

Plus, MCP Platinum is part of the ClearPath Software Series 3.0 release. So as you take advantage of all the solution has to offer, you’ll also benefit from several advances we’ve built into the Software Series firmware:

• Support for MCP Disk Encryption on hypervisors
• Active Directory support
• Security enhancements, including Kerberos authentication, SSL/TLS, and AppLocker Whitelisting
