Hitachi Data Systems launched a range of software products will help you find and manage server, network and storage assets in the data center.
The firm is shipping IT Operations Analyser, Virtual Server Reporter and the Storage Command Portal.
The IT Operations Analyser simplifies data center management by providing integrated monitoring of data center servers and IP networks along with Fibre Channel (SAN) networks, LAN and storage systems. A holistic view of the data center enables comprehensive performance and availability monitoring across heterogeneous servers, network and storage assets. Automated root cause analysis, network visualisation, and agentless architecture support simple deployment.
Mary Johnston Turner, Research Director, System Management Software, IDC said: "Operations Analyser provides the visibility customers need to monitor the performance and availability of the data centre, and help manage fast remediation for network issues and outages."
"We are impressed with the interface and the ease and speed with which the devices in the data center are discovered," said Todd Thelen, Technology Leader, Mary Kay Inc. "The feature set is focused on solving issues we face every day in our data centre, and looks to hold great promise in helping optimise our existing assets and continue to find ways to reduce costs."
Hitachi Virtual Server Reporter is powered by APTARE. It provides an end-to-end view of virtualised VMware servers and their respective storage usage. Targeted at enterprise customers it extends heterogeneous storage management reporting to individual virtual machines within a VMware environment.
"We're extending our innovation and expertise in storage management to deliver software that helps customers increase the return on their IT asset investments and reduce total cost of ownership in their data centers," said Sean Moser, Vice President of Software Product Management, Hitachi Data Systems.
