Hitachi Data Systems Corporation, has announced Hitachi IT Operations Analyzer 2.0, an all-in-one availability and performance monitoring software product for midsized business IT environments. Hitachi IT Operations Analyzer simplifies IT management by allowing customers to monitor the availability of servers, switches and storage devices from one screen. At the same time it reduces the mean time to diagnose (MTTD) IT infrastructure outages, resolving one of the key pain points for midsized organisations.
“Organisations of all sizes now depend heavily on their IT facilities to get work done quickly and efficiently,” said Sean Moser, Vice President- Software Products,Global Solutions and Strategy Development, Hitachi Data Systems. “When an IT system fails or becomes unavailable, work is delayed, revenue is lost and the business suffers. Today’s IT infrastructure can be a complex and often accidental architecture made up of servers, switches and storage devices from multiple vendors. Hitachi IT Operations Analyzer software offers functionality that allows midsized organisations to monitor their IT facilities in the simplest way possible. Our goal is to provide uncomplicated, thorough monitoring capabilities for a broad set of heterogeneous IT equipment.”
