Tom Hollingsworth leads a discussion around how important sensors are for analytics and data. Is network monitoring enough? What about something in software? Or is the added expense of a dedicated out-of-band physical sensor the price you have to pay? The roundtable is pretty evenly split on the subject, and discusses where each approach works best.

Cutting Costs Doesn’t Necessarily Increase Value

January 22, 2019 by Ken Nalbone Leave a Comment

At some point in our lives most of us come the realization that making the lowest cost choice doesn’t always mean you are going to realize the best value possible. These kind of decisions are common in enterprise IT as well.

Seeing Your Storage With Komprise

December 16, 2016 by Rich Stroffolino Leave a Comment

Ethan Banks made an excellent point in his post about Ixia’s network visibility portfolio. It’s no longer enough to simply make an enterprise IT product that works as intended. For an analysis tool, ease of deployment and simplicity of operation are just as valuable as raw functionality. Otherwise that analysis just becomes another bottleneck to solving a problem. I was thinking about a recent product briefing from Komprise, and they seem to share a similar sentiment about storage.

Virtual Monitoring with Uila

December 9, 2016 by Rich Stroffolino Leave a Comment

Monitoring of the data center is critical in the enterprise. The problem isn’t necessarily that monitoring data is unavailable, but rather that it’s hard to manage. It’s hard to troubleshoot issues, or even know how to provision your data center is you can’t tell the signal from the noise in all your monitoring data. This brings the issue up of too much abstraction. Enterprise IT is necessarily complex, these are multifaceted systems that are used in production. Any monitoring solution needs to strike a balance between gathering all the needed information, presenting it in a consumable manner, but provide analysis to give you meaningful insights. Uila seems to offer a solution that nicely strikes this balance.

In essence Luigi tell us that, although the  commercial value of  “collecting, analysing and mining data”  the […]
