To minimize costly downtime, network administrators often rely on automated monitoring solutions to alert them to trouble. However, the hidden costs and operational complexity of many traditional network monitoring solutions make them far too expensive for most companies to implement and maintain.
Fortunately, there's an alternative approach to monitoring that's grounded in best practices for managing heterogeneous data centers and NOCs (network operations centers). This new, managed-services model for maintaining your computing infrastructure offers a better ROI than conventional monitoring software because it:
- Approaches data center monitoring and management as a business process, not a software tool
- Runs within a Web-based portal environment and is backed by world-class service and support
- Requires far less administrative oversight than traditional monitoring software
- Leverages standards-based and open-source systems
- Eliminates the need for costly consultants
