Athenahealth, a provider of cloud-based healthcare software, will replace more than a half-dozen stand-alone network management tools with Infosim® StableNet®. StableNet®, an enterprise network availability and performance management system, will help unify operations by providing customizable dashboards and network transparency to all key stakeholders in Athenahealth’s IT organization.

 

The Changing Needs and Requirements for Enterprise Network Management

This EMA Radar Report is intended to assemble a clear picture of the current range of ENMS products in the marketplace today, how they differ in terms of product approach, core strengths and weaknesses, the total cost of ownership and operations, and the relative strength/size of supplier vendors. The output is intended to guide IT practitioners engaged in research on this topic to identify a short list of solutions for their needs. Under each of the key areas, vendors and their respective ENMS product and service offerings were evaluated on a broad range of weighted factors that were subsequently used to rate each product relative to the others in the study.

Managing large, distributed networks is a challenge from a number of perspectives. But organizations that have chosen and deployed networking equipment from multiple manufacturers have some of the greatest challenges.

IT plays an integral role in the success and efficiency of large businesses and, with a pan-European network supporting users across 80 cities and five countries, SCC is no exception. It needed a reliable solution that could meet the large-scale demands of its operations.

As the business grew, previous IT solutions used by the company were unable to cope with the scale of the network and proved operationally unreliable, impacting negatively on productivity. In addition, they did not have the technical capabilities to produce the detailed IT service reports and intelligent alerting that the business was requesting from the SCC network and application teams.

Nucleus Connect required a fully automated service assurance system for their next generation fibre-optic transport network. This network comprised an MPLS core, active Ethernet access networks and a passive optical access segment based on GePON (IEEE 802.3 standard).

ONE Single Application- ONE Single Database for Performance, Network Configration and Fault Management

Network infrastructure is evolving at an unprecedented rate and management of those systems has become a labor intensive exercise. Unlike Fault and Performance Management, Network Configuration Change Management and (NCCM) Vulnerability & Lifecycle Management (VLM) has no common harmonized management method or protocols. This White Paper will provide you with an insight on how to adress these mission-critical tasks in your network infrastructure. "Through 2015, 80% of outages impacting mission-critical services will be caused by people and process issues, and more than 40% of those outages will be caused by change, configuration, release integration and hand-off issues."

The OSS Automation Platform The StableNet® platform technology revolutionizes management of large heterogeneous network infrastructures. StableNet® enables network operators to automate end-to-end provisioning of service assurance processes such as measurements and monitoring. This creates a pane-of-glass visibility and enables real-time event and error management - a must for achieving for top-level goals like reducing operating complexity and costs. The StableNet® platform enables rapid creation of new services and improves quality of service.

 

 

 

Corporation’s networks today are expanding exponentially but, more importantly, today’s networks are the backbone and heart of a companies’ ability to perform its day-to-day business. When network failures occur, businesses cannot operate, revenues are affected, and loss of credibility/customer experience can be catastrophic. Maintaining a consistent high level of service availability drives greater customer satisfaction, it builds greater credibility, that in turn creates greater revenues by maintaining existing customer contracts and attracting new business. 

This webinar from InfoSim discusses the challenges we face when we need to monitor industrial IoT devices, SDN and IT infrastructure.   Industrial IoT devices is the use of Internet of things (IoT) technology in collecting sensor data in the many area’s that companies need to collect data.  The use of this technology can result in serious technical challenges, in monitoring 10 of 1000’s of devices. 

Modern enterprise applications are engineered for agility and are heavily virtualized for frequent deployment over scalable IT infrastructure environments. The benefits of virtualized public/private cloud environments include flexibility, efficiency, and agile business enablement. Multiple factors such as varying workload requirements, or ‘just-in-time’ provisioning require an accurate and scalable multi-functional management suite to mitigate the risk of compromising the environment. Infosim’s StableNet® unified management system provides the total visibility and control required for your cloud hosting infrastructure environment.

SDN - A Promising Approach for Next Generation Networks

Recently, Software Defined Networking (SDN) has become a very popular term in the area of communication networks. The key idea of SDN is to introduce a separation of the control plane and the data plane of a communication network. The control plane is removed from the normal network elements into typically centralized control components. The normal elements can be replaced by simpler and therefore cheaper off-the-shelf devices that are only taking care of the data plane, i.e. forwarding traffic according to rules introduced by the control unit
