uptime software enables secure monitoring and management of globally distributed data centers
up.time 5.1 gives large enterprises the ability to manage thousands of systems, devices and applications across multiple datacenters in real-time with a single, centralized console
TORONTO, Canada, December 8, 2008 - uptime software announced a new release of its award winning 'up.time' systems management and monitoring software. up.time 5.1 delivers systems management and monitoring across platforms, domains and now across multiple datacenters.
Whether as a result of outsourcing, acquisitions, or organizational restructuring, IT infrastructures and resources are commonly distributed across multiple locations. Unfortunately, it is often difficult, if not impossible, to view and manage the health of thousands of applications, servers and devices that span geographies and time zones through an integrated interface.
"up.time's distributed architecture and capabilities will provide IT managers with the insight to effectively manage and report on their global infrastructure with enterprise-wide availability and performance from a single dashboard," explains Michael Bailey, Director of Products at uptime software. "Today's announcement shows our commitment to helping enterprises manage and monitor global service level agreements and enterprise applications while helping drive down costs through capacity optimization and resource utilization."
By providing both local management and enterprise visibility into the status of local datacenters, enterprises can better manage these distributed resources. Whether covering "lights out" scenarios between datacenters or overseeing remote DR sites, up.time 5.1 provides full visibility for administrators and managers.
Local instances of up.time collect, alert on, and report metrics from their respective sets of applications and devices. This ensures that individual data centers can be managed locally as needed. These metrics are also collected and stored in a centralized Enterprise Monitoring Station (EMS) for global visibility and management. up.time's distributed architecture ensures that no data is lost at any remote site, even if connectivity between the EMS and those sites is cut. When connectivity is restored, all necessary data is delivered to an EMS. This architecture ensures business stakeholders and administrators can monitor and report on the entire enterprise from a unified view.
