Kratos Releases New Versions of Network Management Products

NeuralStar (News - Alert) version 9.8 and dopplerVUE version 2.3 were released by Kratos Networks for its Network Management Products. NeuralStar 9.8 is for enterprise-class distributed management and dopplerVUE version 2.3 is for business-class networks. The new releases deliver industry-leading capabilities in real-time intelligence and powerful functionality, enabling integration of physical security monitoring with management of IT infrastructure.

Identifying the basic cause of a problem is a huge challenge to IT managers who are flooded with multiple events and alarms in the complex enterprise environments. In such a scenario, the releases of NeuralStar and dopplerVUE offer an easy-to-use wizard-driven interface which is a boon to the IT managers. They are able to produce meaningful and granular alerts with the ability to do sophisticated Complex Event Processing correlations, integrating heterogeneous but related management data. By integrating and correlating data about the availability and performance of applications, network elements, servers, and security components, the managers can speed up the root-cause and impact analysis.

Additionally, the intelligence architecture of Kratos allows NeuralStar 9.8 to process large volumes of streaming data across distributed enterprise grade networks. IT managers perform almost instant analysis using this capability and identify issues before they impact users, thus reducing the Mean-Time-To-Resolution.

In a release, the vice president of Kratos Networks, Mike Smith, said, "The challenge in nearly every enterprise is removing latency and enabling quicker response time to expedite troubleshooting for time-sensitive events such as security intrusions, network bandwidth saturation, and business application performance bottlenecks. IT managers need real-time intelligence to help determine which events deserve immediate attention. NeuralStar 9.8 with its deep data gathering, root cause analytics, and intelligent response features enables consistently higher performance and reliability."

The two new releases also feature better real-time change monitoring capabilities and IT managers are immediately alerted when a change occurs in the network. This feature helps to cut off potential problems and respond quickly to outages.

David Fitzgerald, vice president of Business Development for Henry Brothers Electronics, a Kratos company, said. "The consequences of a breakdown in a physical security system have never been higher. With dopplerVUE 2.3, IT and physical security professionals can easily identify and resolve current and impending issues, increase outage impact awareness, and accelerate the remediation of problems."
