Workgroup announces Vizioncore vFoglight PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 01 February 2010 09:11
Vizioncore, a third-party supplier of tools for VMware’s ESX hypervisor environment, has announced the 6.0 version of its virtual machine performance tracking software, vFoglight.
Available through Workgroup, the 6.0 version captures and simplifies representations of the virtual infrastructure, allowing administrators to more easily view both the physical and virtualised components of a data centre server, by showing the relationships between the components.
“The 6.0 version of the tool shows performance issues related to the configuration of a particular component,” says Angeline de Castro, business unit manager at Workgroup. “It can diagnose areas that are causing a slowdown and identify possible solutions to address problem areas.
“Further, the solution measures the service level being provided by virtual machines, perform chargeback for their use and report key information on its performance to the system administrator and the business user owner of the virtual machine.”
The performance monitoring features provided by vFoglight can be used for capacity planning, showing administrators the levels of usage of existing virtual machines, and allowing them to project when additional resources will be needed. It can also help guarantee delivery of service levels called for by end users or customers.
6.0 empowers administrators with the clarity needed to easily identify and resolve problems that affect performance. The upgrade incorporates increased emphasis on virtual machine performance management by a company primarily known for its backup and recovery tool for VMware, vRanger Pro.
