WiredCity Expands Infrastructure Monitoring Market With Proven Technology and Global Users; IT Monitor Provides Real-Time Enterprise-Wide Process Improvement

Posted on: Monday, 5 December 2005, 09:00 CST

WiredCity, a supplier of real-time performance management tools for the enterprise, is expanding the infrastructure monitoring market with IT Monitor(TM), a software architecture that crosses organizational boundaries to manage the end-to-end performance, processes and decision cycle.

WiredCity's IT Monitor platform incorporates real-time events to drive intelligent actions at all levels throughout hybrid and converged operations, providing true enterprise performance management that assists users in anticipating problems before they occur, while also enabling them to continuously improve operational performance. The IT Monitor architecture is a scalable enterprise software solution that accomplishes true end-to-end performance management, always on-line to collect critical data, with proven reliability and currently deployed in sites worldwide.

"WiredCity's focus is to deliver superior value to enterprise customers by building the most adaptable and customizable operations and infrastructure performance monitoring platform with which our customers can continuously improve their business," said Martin Otterson, Chief Executive Officer of WiredCity.

"When network disruptions or bottlenecks occur, we must be able to react and troubleshoot in real time to ensure consistent and accurate operational performance," said Armik Ayoubel, Head of CommSec Online Trading Service. "With IT Monitor's platform, we have complete visibility of the IT environment and real-time information to respond to mission-critical threats, to drill-down into the history of a performance issue, and to manage alerts and notifications - all of which helps us to improve service to our customers."

No product - of more than 300 on the market today - offers as complete a set of the enterprise features necessary for true enterprise planning and decision support, including:

-- The long-term recording of historical performance data in original fidelity that enables trending and forensics of end-to-end asset lifecycles; configuration, compliance, security policy verification;

-- Integrated visibility and transparency of complex end-to-end infrastructure and operational performance;

-- Analytics to provide predictive analysis, forensic troubleshooting and correlation of cascading systemic affects of both problems and enhancements.

Only IT Monitor records and stores historical performance data of the entire system and asset lifecycle, which is decades of information for some customers. Without access to long-term historical records, true enterprise planning and decision support is not possible.

By collecting, displaying and correlating real-time end-to-end performance, reliability and security data, the IT Monitor software can also quickly identify anomalies and help users anticipate problems, as well as take corrective actions to avoid downtime, before problems occur.

"IT Monitor is a very functional solution for connecting enterprise technology to business performance. Collecting, storing and analyzing data from systems across the enterprise, in real time, allows IT to quickly isolate issues that might affect business performance, and act immediately to fix them. For an 'always on' business, that immediacy can drive down costs and deliver a significant service advantage," said Andi Mann, Sr. Analyst, Enterprise Management Associates.

A wide range of industries around the world has already found the IT Monitor platform to be of significant value, including: managed service providers, financial, telecommunications, utilities, federal, manufacturing, mining, chemical, pharmaceutical and water management.

"Achieving access to real-time performance information is central to alleviating bottlenecks in the generation, transmission and distribution of electrical energy across China," said Mr. Wang JiYe, president of FibrLINK, a State Grid Corporation of China. FibrLINK recently announced that it will deploy IT Monitor and the PI System to provide a standard methodology of visualizing and monitoring the performance of converged networks, IT backbones, power transmission, distribution and generation grids, as well as securing and auditing of operations and compliance processes.
