Who uses cloud infrastructure and why
Aside from reducing IT costs, automating manual processes, and improving service reliability, consolidating your (ITOM) tools offers a broad range of benefits, including:
- Consolidated dashboardâStreamlining your monitoring tools allows you to easily create a single network operations center (NOC) dashboard view for visibility across your entire enterprise.
- Out-of-the-box integrationâData integrated and correlated across the enterprise means your single-view dashboard includes vast amounts of information, allowing easier troubleshooting and more efficient operations. Out-of-the-box integration with your service desk aids in your incident, change, and asset management processes.
- Automatic dependency mappingâWith an application dependency mapping too you can create custom maps for groups or entities to track the response time of dependent services. By visualizing logical and physical relationships, you can gain insight into the servers, database, and network elements on which your application depends, so you can quickly troubleshoot issues.
- Improved asset discoveryâA consolidated view gives you the ability to more easily discover and track network devices, servers, applications, connections, users, and more.
- Improved compliance and reportingâWith consolidated logs, configurations, and patch data, you can meet compliance requirements more effectively and improve the reliability of compliance reporting.
- Improved securityâCentralized information through a consolidated view means improved visibility of your control mechanisms, which can greatly enhance organization-wide security.
- Enhanced alertingâCentrally managed alerting eliminates related or redundant alerts and lessens alert fatigue.
- Easier supportâConsolidated tools provide the means for easier support all around with a single support desk for your monitoring and troubleshooting solutions.
- Simplified administrationâOne view of your entire enterprise means more accurate and easier maintenance renewals as well as more effective capacity planning
