# Scale Computing HyperCore

## What is Scale Computing?

Scale Computing HyperCore is a hypervisor and virtualization platform. All components (storage, virtualization, software and hardware) interface directly through the HyperCore hypervisor and SCRIBE storage layers to create a computing platform that can be deployed anywhere from the data center to the edge of the network.

## Why Should You Use the Scale Computing Connector?

The Scale Computing connector provides visibility into the assets managed by HyperCore. You can use this visibility to:

- ensure assets (nodes and virtual machines) and user are managed per your security policies
- monitor each endpoint and its status

## How Does This Connector Work?

Lucidum executes read-only requests to the FortiClient EMS REST API and ingests only meta-data about asset. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.

## Configuring the Connector in Lucidum
