New Platform Makes IT Management Easier, Increases Efficiency, Reliability, Predictability of IT Operations
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Dec. 5 /-- Hyperic, a leader in application management frameworks for IT operations, announced today the release of Hyperic HQ 2.5, the most complete IT management solution for open source and commercial infrastructure. HQ 2.5 makes it easier for IT professionals to manage large environments on an ongoing basis across all systems, network, and application infrastructure -- ultimately increasing the efficiency, reliability and predictability of IT operations.
The HQ 2.5 platform adapts to changes in IT operations by delivering a self-managing process for auto-discovering every change to the environment, automatically enabling monitoring of every key health and performance metric, and applying pre-defined alerting policies. With HQ 2.5, no additional administration is required.
"Hyperic is setting out to alter the way in which IT management solutions perform," said Hyperic Chief Executive Officer Javier Soltero. "Until now, IT management tools have been notoriously painful to deploy and manage on an ongoing basis and largely unavailable to users of open source technology. The HQ 2.5 platform adapts to changes in the IT environment automatically without requiring excessive customization, configuration or tweaking. It's designed for all environments and truly delivers rapid implementation and zero administration management capabilities to our customers."
The features of HQ 2.5 are designed to eliminate the effort and cost of incorporating new IT resources in a managed environment. New components include advanced event management technology for powering log analysis, change control, intrusion detection, and problem identification features across all supported open source and commercial technologies.
Specific features of the Hyperic HQ 2.5 complete IT management platform are:
-- Policy-based alerting -- allows users to define global policies for any number of alerts to address each type of resource in the environment; policies are automatically applied to existing and auto-discovered resources.
-- Event management -- monitors the logs and configuration for managed resources to facilitate alerting on errors, configuration changes, or security events as well as correlating these events to the health and performance of the managed environment.
-- Inventory properties -- enables the enforcement of change control and IT compliance policies across product-specific attributes such as version information, configuration attributes, and many other details about managed resources.
-- Automatic recovery policies -- allows the definition of alerts triggering unattended, auditable recovery control operations on any part of the infrastructure.
Hyperic HQ 2.5 is currently being implemented by many new and existing customers and the company expects to make the first official customer announcements in Q1 2006.
