The Orion Platform and the SolarWinds Platform - What's the Difference?
For the better part of twenty years, the SolarWinds Orion Platform has provided the consolidated web console, alerting engine, reporting engine, and the API upon which our Network, Systems, Virtualization, Storage, and other management solutions rely. That technology was always evolving release-to-release, and the next stage in that evolution is a new name. Now called the SolarWinds Platform, it's built on the same technology that's been part of our customers' experiences for years.
