Data center performance management - a synergy of server performance (both physical & virtual), application performance, and sufficient bandwidth, is a great challenge. The challenge rises multifold when disparate / less-efficient data center monitoring tools are used.
Whenever an end user reports slow access to an application, the issue could be with the server or bandwidth or application itself. To find out the exact issue you have to poke your head into multiple monitors and look out every nook and corner, right from server performance to bandwidth bottlenecks to application performance. You will not find any correlation between the data provided by the tools. By the time you organize the data and hunt down the issue, the application would have gone down completely.
ManageEngine OpManager is a network management and data center management software offering an integrated approach towards data center monitoring. It helps you proactively monitor physical & virtual servers, applications and bandwidth to the core; yet manage their faults from a single console. OpManager offers a single alarm console where all the issues irrespective of the type whether it is an application, server or bandwidth, are raised. This makes it easy for the technicians to pick up the alarms in real-time, drill down to the exact issue and start troubleshooting it before the end user feels the impact and thus greatly improving the efficiency of the data center management process.
