Watch4net has added new ReportPack for Vblock Infrastructure Packages to its APG Software Suite.
With this new module designed for Cisco, EMC, and VMware Cloud Computing offerings, APG discovers, models and monitors the end-to-end dependencies across storage, servers, network and virtualization domains, managing Vblocks as a single entity.
Key performance metrics are collected for all Vblock components and analyzed in context with their relationships with and impacts on other resources. This provides organizations (service providers and enterprises alike) with unified visibility into their data centers, showing in real-time the dependencies between services and underlying applications, operating systems and Vblock infrastructures as well as giving them detailed insight into the quality of service delivered.
Operation teams can map service-related issues with infrastructure components, and vice-versa, in order to facilitate troubleshooting and better meet committed service levels.
