Benefits
Wide Coverage
GroundWork comprehensively monitors a full range of elements including SNMP MIBs and traps, log files, event logs, JMX-containers, JMS, Log4J, and WMI/.net as well as wide variety of open source plug-ins and agents needed to fully characterize, the availability, performance, and event sequences for Windows, Unix, Linux, Netware and iSeries, as well as the full range of application and database servers, routers, switches, load balancers, firewalls, printers, and NAS or SAN storage systems. Simple and easily maintained dependency logic eliminates false positives and alarm storms which supports direct diagnoses of most incidents.
Comprehensive Visibility
The normalized, and correlated inputs listed above are collected in a database that drives a role based user interface.
This interface includes a low latency event management console, multiple views of state and status, and an unlimited number of operational, strategic or personalized dashboards.
Standard reports covering availability, performance, capacity, and Service Levels for components, component groups, applications, and IT services are included with the capability to customize and create new reports to support.
