Regardless of where your applications and infrastructure are hosted, the network will continue to provide that critical connectivity to drive business productivity and profitability. For more than a decade Eye of the Storm has kept many of the world’s largest and most dynamic enterprise networks optimally performing and efficiently deployed, providing the architectural foundation necessary for monitoring the cloud.
EYE is well-suited as the management platform to monitor physical and virtual networks, in addition to the boundaries where they meet, even as they dynamically change. EYE’s continual, automated discovery of inventory and topology, coupled with patented StormWorks™ technology, allows for the rapid modeling of objects to be put under management, whether physical or not. Virtual machines (VMs) are visible and manageable within the context of the overall network through EYE’s integrated management module for VMware ESX Server. Management of Cisco’s newest next generation data center devices – the Nexus 1000v, 5000, and 7000 families – is supported in EYE.
Cloud computing offers business a scalable and cost-effective approach to utilize fast-moving IT trends and dynamically provision IT capacity. Whether your company is an early adopter or just formulating their cloud strategy, EYE can help ensure your network is ready for new cloud services and maximize their return to your business.
