In the brave new world of new Hybrid Datacentre, management, control and monitoring of the application estate and its underlying infrastructure is increasingly challenging. Implementing real-time monitoring, empowered by AI-based analytics, for all key applications and infrastructure is the only way to measure, control and ensure end to end performance and availability.

The promise of a scale-out storage system (block or file) is that application performance (IOPs or bandwidth) scales “near” linearly. For instance, IOPs and throughout scale almost linearly as you add nodes in a Dell EMC Isilon cluster while latency remains around 1 msec. Isilon is the Dell EMC scale-out NAS storage platform and an ideal system for bandwidth intensive workloads requiring access to unstructured data. As your dataset grows the ability to scale linearly becomes critical.

Virtana, the leader in hybrid infrastructure management for mission-critical workloads, announced today its participation at both the UK edition of Gartner’s IT Infrastructure, Operations & Cloud Strategies Conference, taking place November 25-26, 2019 in London, and the US edition taking place December 9-12, 2019 in Las Vegas.

Imagine that you are a taxi driver deftly navigating busy city streets to get your passenger to the airport on time and to prove that taxis remain relevant in a changing world of Uber and Lyft. If you had a choice of routes would you opt for a well-lit route with excellent visibility versus a route where some of the street lights were out and visibility is a challenge?

It’s been almost two weeks since we said goodbye to Virtual Instruments, and hello to Virtana – a company focused on helping customers take a modern, AIOps-empowered approach to managing their hybrid IT infrastructure. As part of introducing the world to Virtana, we also announced the launch of the latest addition to our portfolio of hybrid infrastruture monitoring solutions – CloudWisdom.
