Virtual Infrastructure
Business Challenge
Deliver on the promise of a virtualized data center—increased server utilization and reduced planned downtime—without losing control. The cost savings associated with consolidation can quickly be offset by the cost of tracking down poor application performance with traditional physical infrastructure-based approaches to system management, which are blind to virtual infrastructure. IT departments are challenged by:
- an inability to determine the source of application performance problems in a virtual infrastructure
- limited visibility into the relationship between physical and virtual infrastructure
- limited visibility into application transactions that go between physical and virtual machines
- limited ability to balance workloads across data center capacity.
Our Solution
Compuware’s market leading end-to-end monitoring solution reduces the complexity associated with data center virtual infrastructure by providing IT departments a unified view of the entire data center, physical and virtual. Our holistic, service model-based approach facilitates the visualization of physical and virtual components, dependencies and relationships, ensuring consistent delivery across the entire application infrastructure and enables IT departments to:
- rapidly identify and isolate problems by characterizing dependencies between physical and/or virtual servers, as well as services provided through public, hybrid or private clouds
- follow transactions as they flow through physical and virtual infrastructural components
- prioritize problems based on business impact
- seamlessly integrate monitoring tools, regardless of vendor
- validate success by baselining applications before and after visualization with the same tools.
