Zenoss Service Dynamics:

Unified IT Resource Management

 

Our 3 year relationship with Zenoss has been very valuable to us. Their highly-scalable service assurance solution has been an important part of our success across our offerings, including cloud. Lew Moorman

Native protocols used to monitor Vblock components:

  • Cisco UCS using the XML-over-HTTP API
  • Cisco networking using SNMP and NetConf
  • VMware vSphere using vSphere API
  • EMC storage using SMI-S
  • Linux and Windows workloads using SSH, SNMP, & WMI

Traditional IT management approaches break down when deployed into highly virtualized and Cloud infrastructures. While the basics of performance and availability management are still the same, dynamic infrastructures introduce a new layer of complexity, which has to be managed in order to guarantee service delivery.

Monitor Everything. Everywhere.

Zenoss is a unified solution that delivers IT resource monitoring to your entire dynamic IT infrastructure, wherever it is deployed - physical, virtual, or in the Cloud. Zenoss manages your networks, servers, virtual devices, storage, and Cloud infrastructure and provides visibility and predictability into the performance of your IT environment.

Zenoss Service Dynamics delivers:

  • Dynamic Discovery – Automatically maintain real-time inventory and configuration details for entire IT environment; includes real-time relationship tracking of dynamic relationships common in virtualized and cloud-based infrastructures
  • Unified Resource Monitoring – Unify and automate performance, availability and event monitoring of networks, servers, storage and applications across your physical, virtual and cloud-based environments with a single, model-driven, horizontally-scalable, extensible collection platform.
  • Automation – From simple notifications to complex integrations with Orchestration/Provisioning solutions, Zenoss enables automated IT Ops.
  • Simplified Operations – Zenoss is an open and extensible solution that reduces complexity and streamlines IT Ops, DevOps, and more.

Model-driven Management

At the heart of Zenoss is a unified model of the entire IT environment. Zenoss is based upon a powerful object-based management model that is built and maintained automatically. All devices in the environment can be modeled – networks, servers, software, and applications – as well as custom devices such as power supplies and temperature sensors.
