SolarWinds,
a
leading provider of powerful and affordable IT management software, today
announced the latest release of SolarWinds Virtualization Manager with feature enhancements
and attractive per-socket pricing designed to help IT pros maintain the health
and performance of a VDI environment.
Overview:
- SolarWinds
Virtualization Manager is a comprehensive virtualization management software
solution that delivers integrated VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V 3.0 performance
monitoring, capacity planning, VM sprawl control, configuration management, and
chargeback automation, helping to alleviate user pain points around
troubleshooting, downtime and resource utilization across server, storage and
desktop systems.
- Virtualizing
desktops affords IT organizations greater control including centralized
administration, ensuring a secure environment and meeting compliance
requirements. For end users, a VDI-supported environment allows for greater
convenience with the freedom to have access to their personalized workspace at
different locations and times.
- Given a VDI
environment's shared resources with the data center, virtual desktop loads have
more peaks and are more transient than virtualized servers. IT pros have to be
vigilant monitoring the environment and proactive anticipating growth before it
happens to avoid impact on the end-user experience and business-critical data
center applications.
- SolarWinds
Virtualization Manager consolidates VDI data into a single pane of glass for
quick and easy monitoring of VDI performance issues like boot/logon storms
related to storage I/O bottlenecks, CPU, memory contention and
more.
"With SolarWinds'
competitive per socket pricing and comprehensive set of
features, Virtualization Manager is the most affordable and powerful
virtualization management software solution in the market built for IT pros to
manage environments in the early stages of virtualization to large-scale data
center deployments," said Denny LeCompte, VP of product management, SolarWinds.
"With this latest release, customers can now monitor both their data center and
VDI environments from the same management solution."
