To reduce the burden facing today’s overworked IT operations staff as they work to keep monitoring current for the applications and systems underpinning IT services, NetIQ <http://www.netiq.com> today announced the availability of NetIQ® AppManager® 8.
AppManager 8.0 continues the rich heritage NetIQ has in delivering comprehensive application and system monitoring and management <http://www.netiq.com/products/performancemgmt/default.asp> solutions to support the uninterrupted delivery of IT services. With improved usability and responsiveness of AppManager Control Centre, operations teams can better centralise and simplify heterogeneous server management across physical and fast-changing virtualised environments. Deeper and more comprehensive discovery and inventory of monitored components ensures that auto-deployment of monitoring is done in accordance with policy, leading to greater monitoring fidelity. With AppManager 8, customers can take a phased approach to implementation and upgrade specific capabilities at their own pace, significantly improving their ability to successfully deploy and maximise business value from AppManager.
“Terremark sets the standard for IT deployments with advanced infrastructure and cloud computing offerings that deliver the scale, security, and reliability necessary to meet the demanding requirements of enterprises and governments around the world. With a diverse customer base, our operations teams must keep pace with the variety of systems and application monitoring we provide in order to deliver the world-class service Terremark is known for,” said Leo Casusol, CIO at Terremark, a Verizon Company. “NetIQ AppManager 8.0 is a critical component in helping us to consolidate and simplify the management of our IT systems and applications while enabling our IT staff to address events before outages occur – freeing them up to focus on more critical business-enabling projects.”
“Large enterprises and service providers alike continue to rely on NetIQ and AppManager to monitor and manage today’s complex and dynamic application environments because ‘just good enough’ is not an option for IT teams if they are to meet service commitments,” said Travis Greene, senior product marketing manager at NetIQ. “AppManager 8 is our easiest to use version yet, and delivers greater monitoring fidelity to minimise the chaos when outages occur. 50 companies across the global, spanning the energy, telecommunications, automotive and manufacturing verticals are already running AppManager 8 in production, which is a testament to its ability to support the highest demands of service health visibility as well as our ability to help them achieve successful outcomes with monitoring and management solutions.”
