Chapter 1. ThinkAgile CP Overview

This product overview provides technical information on the Lenovo ThinkAgile CP Series cloud platform, its 
key features and specifications, components and options, and configuration guidelines.

Lenovo ThinkAgile CP Series is an all-in-one, composable cloud with an integrated application marketplace 
(Lenovo Cloud Marketplace) and end-to-end automation, delivering a turn-key cloud experience in your own 
data center. The ThinkAgile CP Series uses modular compute, storage, and networking components paired 
with the cloud virtualization software to create pools of IT resources, independently scaling and allocating 
capacity, and automatically configuring resources to fulfill application requirements.

Due to its software-defined modular architecture, the ThinkAgile CP Series platform can be scaled easily by 
adding more compute and storage resources independently of each other as your needs grow. Suggested 
workloads for the ThinkAgile CP Series include web services, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), enterprise 
applications, OLTP and OLAP databases, data analytics, application development, cost-optimized 
virtualization, containers, and other back-office applications.

Key Features

Lenovo ThinkAgile CP Series offers the following key features:

•  Modular and scalable ThinkAgile CP Series configurations of an on-premises cloud platform featuring the 

second generation of the Intel Xeon Processor Scalable Family that are designed to optimize your 
workload’s performance and provide the IT agility for your business demands.

•  Factory-preloaded ready-to-go cloud platform that is delivered with all the infrastructure you need for your

quickly.

•  The cloud software provides a scalable software-defined infrastructure (SDI) that simplifies cloud 

deployments with integrated compute, storage, networking, security, and management services that 
manage application infrastructure and automate and orchestrate workload provisioning.

•  Extensive security features, such as data at rest encryption, virtualized network and VM-level firewalls, 

and two-factor authentication help customers meet the most stringent security requirements.

•  Centralized cloud-based management automates discovery, deployment, and configuration of cloud 

resources, and provides automated, non-disruptive software updates.

•  Lenovo ThinkAgile Advantage provides a single point of contact for all support issues and integrates
