Hitachi Data Systems White Paper Sample

The Hitachi IT Operations Analyzer is an integrated performance and availability monitoring tool created with the needs of IT generalists in mind. By design, the tool takes a broad rather than deep view of the availability and performance of network, storage, and server infrastructure elements.

The IT Operations Analyzer is vendor agnostic and targets heterogeneous environments where IT staff need near-real-time access to infrastructure performance status and root cause analysis. IT Operations Analyzer does not replace device specific management tools, which are still needed to collect event data and to administer the individual systems. Rather, IT Operations Analyzer uses an agentless polling technique to collect data from each device and forward it to the tool's correlation and analysis engine. Hitachi's internally developed analytics and correlation engine identifies connections and dependencies across the infrastructure and maps performance and availability data into visual performance monitoring dashboards and topology maps.
