Data Palette is a patented IT process and decision automation platform developed by Stratavia. It is intended as a highly scalable and flexible means for automating repetitive data center tasks, such as software upgrade and patch management, database and application provisioning, database maintenance, application software rollouts, incident remediation, etc. The objective is to automate the everyday tasks that IT teams are faced with so they are able to focus on more important areas. Theoretically, this would reduce operational costs for those IT teams.
The SOP module within Data Palette lets users define and deploy Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for recurring, time consuming or complex tasks. This is the basis for IT Automation. These SOPs provide a means of standardizing business rules and a method for centralizing those standards so they can be used by team members across a company.
According to Tony Baer of DataMonitor Computerwire, "Data Palette correctly recognizes that the root cause analysis of an outage often boils down to more than just a single exceeded threshold".
The technology was included in the analyst firm Gartner's list of Cool Vendors for 2009.

Famous quotes containing the words data and/or palette:
“Mental health data from the 1950’s on middle-aged women showed them to be a particularly distressed group, vulnerable to depression and feelings of uselessness. This isn’t surprising. If society tells you that your main role is to be attractive to men and you are getting crow’s feet, and to be a mother to children and yours are leaving home, no wonder you are distressed.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
“The great God endows His children variously. To some he gives intellect—and they move the earth. To some he allots heart—and the beating pulse of humanity is theirs. But to some He gives only a soul, without intelligence—and these, who never grow up, but remain always His children, are God’s fools, kindly, elemental, simple, as if from His palette the Artist of all had taken one color instead of many.”
—Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)
