Virtual Instruments Launches VirtualWisdom4.1; Following the introduction of version 4 of the VirtualWisdom platform in May, new updates include enhanced discovery and analytic tools(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Powering the Cloud - Virtual Instruments, the leader in Infrastructure Performance Management (IPM) for physical, virtual and cloud computing environments, today launched the first update to its fourth-generation VirtualWisdom solution. The new VirtualWisdom4.1 features an advanced applied analytics module and provides users with an enhanced dynamic user-interface, reporting and analytics tools. Its entity-centric user interface, which logically groups system-wide resources, physical devices or applications, has also been further developed. With the goal of turning data into useful, usable answers, Virtual Instruments has further enhanced the platform with analytics capabilities based on insights gained from working directly with their portfolio of global enterprise clients when optimising their infrastructures. As a result VirtualWisdom4.1 enables infrastructure managers to quickly address widespread performance management requirements such as workload balancing, event investigation and trend correlation, across the entire IT environment. "The advanced applied analytics tools are able to execute tasks in just a few seconds, tasks which prior to VirtualWisdom4, would have taken hours or even days. The 4.1 module was developed to gain an explicit understanding of the relationships between entities within IT, from the hypervisor all the way to the storage tier, the associated metrics, and the context in which the data was measured. This means that VirtualWisdom4.1 is ideally placed to deliver meaningful recommendations in the unique context of a specific customer's environment," said Skip Bacon, Chief Technology Officer at Virtual Instruments. For today's virtualised and private cloud-based IT infrastructure, out-dated tools that only serve to provide a limited and imprecise understanding of the infrastructure, are not enough to guarantee availability, much less actually manage performance. Organisations require the ability to quickly get answers. VirtualWisdom provides IT decision-makers with a definitive understanding of how the applications and infrastructure are performing together. Version 4.1 further enables IT managers to proactively balance the provisioning of applications on virtual machines for maximum application performance with the confidence that systems will not slow down or fail.
