services that matter to your business
Advanced Rule Framework Addressing Sophisticated Threats and Violations
AccelOps supports simple thresholds advancing analytics to describe any scenario of interest.
The rule language supports multiple sub-patterns (AND, OR, FOLLOWED_BY,..), broad operators (equals, greater than, contains, between,…),
nested rules, and rule exceptions.
Flexible Reporting and Custom Dashboards
Any of the supplied reports may be copied or modified, or new reports built from the ground up to meet your requirements.
Event and log data can be analyzed through simple keyword searches or complex conditional statements, resulting in detailed
reports and graphs which in turn may be further explored by drilling down on specific results.
Smart Incident Management
AccelOps employs advanced alert consolidation, auto-suppression rules, instant filtering, service impact analysis and state management to
reduce notification noise and sharpen administrative focus on a select set of active incidents.
Multi-Vendor Device Support
We discover all aspects of your IT infrastructure – networks, servers, storage, users, and applications, then monitor availability,
performance, change, and security, enabling you to pinpoint the root cause of an incident in record time.
High Performance Event Processing
We use a patent-pending XML based event-parsing framework, providing device support flexibility without sacrificing
event processing performance. Additionally, new devices and applications can be supported without a software upgrade.
Flexible Deployment Models (SaaS or Virtual Appliance)
Leverage your VMware investment with our Virtual Appliance (software on premise) model, or take advantage of our
subscription-based SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) model.

New Data Centers – New Monitoring Challenges.
Organizations depend on their data center IT infrastructure to deliver business critical services. Any glitch or downtime will directly impact business operations;
and IT personnel are held accountable for managing corresponding network, systems and applications. More importantly, the IT organization is measured by how well
they meet business requirements and keep mission-critical systems online with expected reliability. New technologies are implemented to expand capacity, such as
web and mobile applications, virtualization (in all areas of storage, network and server), SOA, VOIP, email, wireless, security devices, and now public and private clouds.
While the technologies bring tremendous value and effectiveness to the enterprise, at the same time, they introduce new data center monitoring challenges.
Operational Silo Inefficiencies
Adding to data center complexity and impacting IT responsiveness for large to mid-sized enterprises is the growth of operational silos, such as networks, systems,
applications, help desk, etc. How to scale the management of the trees without ignoring the forest? IT departmentalization provides focus and helps scale IT controls,
but it also contributes to inefficiency in terms of identifying threats, responding to problems, isolating root cause, and getting the network and systems back up and
running in a timely and assured fashion.
These organizations use numerous tools across departments to provide different IT management functions. However, this approach makes it difficult to monitor and link various
operational data quickly to understand how applications and infrastructure connect to deliver business services, and to quickly pinpoint problems and efficiently assess if the
cause relates to performance, availability, security, or a change.
For example, which component is critical to which business services and what is the impact of an update to the performance or reliability of a service delivered to the actual end
user or customer. Data Center monitoring requires a more holistic approach that can be of value to different members of the IT organization and the IT organization as a whole to alleviate
operation silos inefficiencies and disparate toolsets.
New Way of Monitoring Data Centers
Evaluating and guaranteeing the availability of critical systems, monitoring different geographic and application environments, measuring data center operating norms and
service-levels, and improving the bottom line of an enterprise is paramount – especially given the demand on IT to achieve more with less resources. An automated and more
integrated data center monitoring solution increases infrastructure and service reliability, enhances IT operational efficiency and facilitates resource optimization.
The AccelOps Data Center Solution
The AccelOps all-in-one data center solution integrates data center and IT service monitoring functions offering advanced analytics, proactive alerting,
flexible search and robust reporting capabilities. Employing unique and cutting-edge technology, the AccelOps solution provides end-to-end visibility across
IT in terms of service, performance, availability, security, and change management.
The AccelOps solution not only pinpoints network and application problems, but also offers IT the intelligence to know in what domain an issue exists,
how a problem with a specific component affects different IT services, and the impact that an issue or change has relative to IT service performance.
Web 2.0 Meets Next-Generation Data Center Monitoring
The AccelOps solution offers a dynamic and intuitive web interface for highly interactive and customizable dashboards, smart search options, data queries
including trend graphs, and more than 500 built-in and extensible reports.
AccelOps seamlessly presents core features delivered through our exclusive use of Adobe Flex web interface providing anywhere, anytime access with the
performance and usability experience of a desktop application – but without having to install one!
The user interface will work on all operating systems: Windows, Mac or Unix, and any standard web browser interface including: Explorer, Firefox,
Safari and Opera with the Adobe Flash Player plug-in installed.
Enterprise-Class Data Center Monitoring Framework
By complementing or replacing existing, silo’d management tools with a fully integrated data center monitoring solution, AccelOps allows complete
operational oversight from a service perspective.
AccelOps collects, manages and stores diverse operational data (network flows, configurations, events, logs and user activity) in an IT environment
in a scalable fashion, and analyzes the data in real-time and historically to yield end-to-end business service visibility and control for availability,
performance, security and change management.
AccelOps automates CMDB population and IT service definition processes by means of a fast, multi-faceted way to capture and categorize infrastructure
asset configuration details while removing the cumbersome and time-consuming data collection effort across various organizational barriers. With this
information, AccelOps presents a practical way to define IT services (the applications and supporting IT infrastructure that comprise a service) in
order monitor a data center from an infrastructure and service perspective.
The AccelOps Advantage
AccelOps provides a single pane of glass into IT operations and services by leveraging a company’s existing infrastructure and delivering the following integrated capabilities:

Expedite Your Root-Cause Analysis and Investigations
AccelOps doesn’t just present the operator with alerts, charts and raw event data. Through intuitive drill-through operational and topology dashboards, AccelOps has the
intelligence to convey to IT staff what service is affected, what infrastructure components and applications have issues enterprise-wide, whether the problem is related to
availability, performance, security, or device/configuration changes, and what are the contributing factors. Situational analysis and investigations are facilitated by a google-like graphical
query feature that streamlines iterative searches across real-time and historical, correlated raw events.
AccelOps readily puts comprehensive instrumentation, such as configurations, network flows, system activity, identity, primary and secondary login activity, locations,
resource utilization, inventory status, changes, faults, incidents, raw event logs, policy violations, security posture and service levels, at the operator’s fingertips.
Get the Facts about "Who, What, Where, How, Why, and When"
- Who: AD, AAA, & LDAP account data, including group information
- What: cross-correlated and raw event details
