BMC Discovery o ADDM

BMC Discovery o ADDM

Mantenere aggiornate e sotto controllo le informazioni riguardanti i cespiti e le loro correlazioni e’ una necessita’ spesso non facile da gestire.
La mappatura delle applicazioni dipende da una puntuale verifica degli asset.
Senza una visibilita’ degli asset le decisioni nei data center si basano su tentativi.
Non si possono fissare priorita’, consolidare dati e sapere quali asset supportano quale parte di attivita’ se non in via ipotetica.
La “discovery” delle applicazioni e la mappatura delle relazioni sono correlate e devono basarsi su informazioni univoche e affidabili

BMC Discovery (ex BMC Atrium Discovery e Dependency Mapping o ADDM) crea una dinamica, olistica visualizzazione di tutti gli asset del data center e le relazioni tra loro, dando all’IT una visibilita’ determinante su come gli asset supportano il business. Ogni scansione ricerca le informazioni e le correlazioni di tutto il software, hardware, network, storage, e versioni, fornendo all’ IT il contesto necessario a creare una mappa delle applicazioni da ogni singola informazione raccolta.

In questo modo l’IT e’ in grado in pochi minuti di avere un quadro completo e accurato al 100% della mappa delle applicazioni in meno di 15 minuti. Puo’ cosi’ ottimizzare la capacita’, garantire una maggiore sicurezza, migliorare i servizi, gestire i cambiamenti e la gestione dei “problem”.
