CA subsidiary Nimsoft, a provider of application monitoring software, has hopped on the vCloud vTrain, adding support for Vblock infrastructure environments. Available as on-premise software or through Nimsoft On Demand, the new feature will “enable proactive monitoring and rapid root-cause analysis on Vblock Infrastructure Packages” that include a mix of real-world/cloud world components:
- Chassis, including rack temperature, access and physical security.
- Compute, including Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) blades and elements.
- Storage, including EMC’s CLARiiON, Symmetrix, and Celerra.
- Networking and interconnects, including Cisco routers, SAN switches and Nexus softswitches.
Jesse Labrocca says:
Nimsoft touts its portability and ability to manage vCloud environments as a unit, be they private, public (at a VMware vCloud hoster) or a mix of the two. Pricing was not disclosed, but when your hypervisor is a BMW, expect to pay the mechanic a little more.
I love them.
