Virtual Instruments has announced the release of its 16G-capable Fibre Channel (FC) performance probe, providing IT teams with the critical, precise information they need for analysing true infrastructure response time. The new probe is the industry’s first and only real-time full 16G line-rate monitoring solution for storage area networks (SANs), analysing and reporting on hundreds of metrics to provide comprehensive, accurate and vendor agnostic monitoring at the protocol level.
Combined with the VirtualWisdom4 IPM platform, the probe delivers:
• Performance-based service-level agreement (SLA) management to meet the emerging requirement for increased operational transparency in the private cloud;
• Detailed application I/O profiling to enable the increasing enterprise shift to workload-centric IT strategies; and
• Proactive problem identification to guarantee end-to-end infrastructure performance and availability.
“With the introduction of the ProbeFC-16G-24, Virtual Instruments is reinforcing its commitment to supporting the latest in SAN technology,” said Barry Cooks, vice president of engineering at Virtual Instruments. “We developed this solution to keep pace with our customers’ and the market’s requirements for technology investment protection and ongoing support of 16G Fibre Channel as global enterprises begin to upgrade their environments to the latest technology available.”
Virtual Instruments’ hardware-based performance probe family provides a depth and granularity of data unmatched in the industry. The VirtualWisdom4 Applied Analytics module incorporates a built-in understanding of the relationships between infrastructure entities and metrics to generate key insights and answers from IT data. This module correlates and examines the hardware-based probe information alongside the data coming from all other VirtualWisdom4 software probes (VM, Host, Switch and Storage) to offer enterprise IT teams the definitive insights they need to ensure applications and infrastructure perform better together.
The VirtualWisdom4 IPM platform gives IT performance teams the comprehensive visibility into the systemwide functionality they need to transform their IT data into the answers they need to guarantee the highest performance and availability at the lowest cost and risk.
