To provide better quality software and services, the DevOps methodology stresses improved collaboration and communication between development and IT operations teams as well as improved IT operations performance. However, most DevOps solutions actually impede collaboration and communication by taking a development- or IT operations-centric approach to monitoring, which forces one of the teams to adopt additional tools to meet its needs. Now, Site24x7 provides unparalleled balance and depth of monitoring, so both development and operations teams can collaborate around a single tool.

"By adding network monitoring to Site24x7, we deliver on the DevOps promise with one console that provides comprehensive monitoring from applications to infrastructure and end users," said Gibu Mathew, director of product management, Site24x7. "Site24x7 keeps development and IT operations teams in touch and on the same page, literally; so, they can focus on the performance and availability of critical applications without getting bogged down in confusing or inconsistent data - or worse - finger pointing."

Enterprise-Class Network Monitoring

The Network Monitoring product is based on ManageEngine?s proven, enterprise-class network performance monitoring software, OpManager. The new product provides comprehensive monitoring for critical network components such as routers, switches and firewalls. By running a network discovery using SNMP, Network Monitoring automatically discovers network devices to monitor. Network Monitoring includes:

  • Router Monitoring, which monitors critical router performance metrics such as CPU, memory utilization, buffer hit stats and more. Router monitoring also pinpoints unusual performance and assists in isolating issues faster.
  • Switch Monitoring, which analyzes the status and availability of switch ports and actively monitors them. It also identifies highly utilized and underutilized ports.
  • Firewall Monitoring, which monitors the availability and performance of firewall devices as well as critical metrics such as firewall CPU utilization, active sessions count and more.

DevOps Promise Delivered

In one solution, Site24x7 provides the monitoring services that enable DevOps teams to work together to improve software development and IT operations. Site24x7 monitors website, Web, and mobile applications; application performance; infrastructure (server and network); and public and private clouds.

  • For developers, Site24x7 tracks application response times and monitors real user experience. For developers working with Java, .NET, Ruby and mobile platforms, Site24x7 can drill down into transactions to identify the root cause of performance problems in the application stack, e.g., app, Web server, SQL queries, or database.
  • For IT operations teams, Site24x7 monitors website and Web application availability and performance, tracks the availability and performance of servers and the network infrastructure, and provides end users with availability and performance dashboards.

Network Monitoring is available immediately to evaluate for free during beta testing. Access the Network Monitoring beta at https://www.site24x7.com/network-monitoring.html.
