Key Features
Automated application to infrastructure relationship mapping
The application stack management dashboard automatically maps relationships between the application and its underlying infrastructure.
Drill into performance details for troubleshooting in one click
With the application stack dashboard, you can identify the root cause at-a-glance, and in a click dive into the performance details.
Solve performance problems right from the Web console
Immediately take action in context—reboot or suspend virtual machines, delete snapshots, kill processes, start websites & services, and more.
Pinpoint virtualization bottlenecks
Automatically detect changing relationships and drill in to troubleshoot resource contention.
Multi-vendor support for applications, servers, hypervisors, and arrays
Visualize performance and relationships for 200+ applications, multiple hardware, storage, and hypervisor vendors.
Quickly customize your view with filter and search capabilities
Filter on severity, business service, application, or any defined property. Easily add this view to your NOC.
Visibility to storage
Trace dynamic relationships from apps, VMs, LUNs, pools, and arrays to find latency & capacity issues.
