As many businesses have shifted their systems to VMware environments they have a need for real-time insights into application and server performance, efficiency, and reliability.
To meet this need SIOS Technology is announcing the latest release of its SIOS iQ machine learning analytics software. This offers new features to deliver accuracy and precision in performance analysis for VMware environments.
"By putting all key information about an organization's infrastructure at their fingertips, SIOS iQ enables IT managers to ensure their applications are operating efficiently, that issues are identified and resolved quickly, and that VMware resources are not being wasted," says Jerry Melnick, president and CEO at SIOS Technology. "These newest enhancements further simplify the understanding of IT operations and help resolve issues in dynamic virtual environments".
Highlights of SIOS iQ 3.3 include a best practice analysis feature which enables SIOS iQ to provide insights on performance, efficiency, reliability, and capacity utilization immediately after implementation. Using event injection it enables VMware vRealize Operations Manager 6.0 (vROps) to display high availability cluster health, host-based caching configuration recommendations, undersized VMs, idle resources and more, making it easier to stop and fix performance issues.
Version 3.4 will include a Topology Impact Analysis View -- a visual map of the VMware infrastructure showing interrelated objects (VMs, network, storage, and applications) and their relationships, highlighting current status and anomalous behavior. Drill down screens will enable IT staff to explore the detailed root causes of performance issues and recommendations for improvement.
IT staff will be able to augment SIOS iQ's understanding of both normal and anomalous infrastructure behavior by adding extra parameters for increased precision and accuracy. It will also offer a SIOS PERC Dashboard reliability indicator, showing the number of host failures that a cluster has sustained over time and indicating when there are not enough hosts to sustain future failures.
SIOS iQ 3.3 is available now, version 3.4 will be released by the end of the year, for more information and pricing visit the SIOS website.
