No need to make a difference between virtual and physical infrastructure
Today’s IT departments have to struggle with demands on high availability to support the business and at the same time consolidate and decrease costs. To succeed you need to be able to effectively balance the demands of maximized return, mitigate risk, improve performance and increase agility. Virtualization, using softwares like VMware or XEN, is a fast growing trend with a lot of pro's helping an IT department to meet the demands from the business. Virtualization also increases the need of control since potential problems may have much more serious effects with several virtual servers on each physical and a more complex dependency structure. Whether you have 1, 10, 100 or 1000 servers, op5 Monitor helps you monitor your virtual infrastructure, giving you control and deliver savings, ease of use, scalability and the possibility to be agile and proactive in your IT operations.
Monitor your service level agreements (SLA) to succeed with your outsourcing project
According to Accenture more than 50% of all outsourcing projects in the Nordics are classified as failures.
The prime reason given for the failures is the differences of expectations between the customer and outsourcing partner. So, is there any way to manage the expectations? Yes, it is important that both parties have access to the same data when agreeing on and setting the levels for the service, writing the service level agreement (SLA). This is crucial to identify what key values to measure and what levels are acceptable for both parties to achieve a successful SLA monitoring.
Monitor Your Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERP)
Rapidly changing business climates are creating new challenges for today’s ERP systems. In most cases modern Enterprise Resource Planning Systems requires a major upgrade to many currently operating systems. Previously data was processed on large single systems (AS/400 or similar) but new generation ERP systems use a more evenly distributed model. This gives the solution much more flexibility and supports more options in the various components over all.
Business specific solutions help build industrial strength
The industrial and service markets are growing at record pace. As business heats up, clients become more demanding. This means your IT systems need to be running at full speed as much as possible. Complex machinery such as modern robot technology needs looking after so you can avoid dreaded downtime.
Network monitoring within the public sector has some unique challanges that require unique solutions. IT systems need to be accessible to a greater number of people and need to be reliable with minimal or no system down time. They need to support a wide range of various technologies, and at the same time accountability and traceability is important for legal reasons. Public sector systems are often widely networked and shared geographically and/or between numerous municipalities or administrations. Without proper system monitoring this can be a nightmare.
Over the last 10 years the financial industry has experienced rapid changes. From a few large institutions using proprietary technology it has grown to become a wide open international market offering many new services. However, a service that cannot be accessed, or has an excessive load time, is a non-product.
The retail industry in general faces several classic challenges with the need to support and monitor multiple outlets. A mixed IT environment makes this a rather complex operation. Distributed WAN and LAN, cash machines and credit card processing, as well as inventory, depends heavily on a transaction based system.
