      Pre Deployment Assessment

      Ensure Rate, Utilization, and Performance is Completely Understood Prior to a Virtualization Project

    Pre Deployment Assessment

    Prior to rolling out new applications, moving applications, changing infrastructure, or utilizing new technologies, ensure that the current rate, utilization, and performance is completely understood. Should an application be prioritized for migration to a cloud deployment, current visibility is critical in ensuring application deployment success.

    Visual Performance Manager correlates and mediates infrastructure and application performance across diverse environments and n-tier application deployments to provide a holistic view of performance. By simplifying the reporting of these disparate data sets, potential bottlenecks are clearly illustrated. Monitoring through early stage lab application deployments, slow roll-out, and production environments protects your staff from not knowing the current status quo, or making informed decisions at every decision gate.

      See which sites have the slowest access to resources, and compare that to the infrastructure in place to gain insight into how differing levels of resources impact the deployment. (click to view larger)
    • Reduce the amount of time determining resources necessary to ensure successful deployments of new technology
    • Ensure successful application deployments in the eyes of your users by effectively baselining what “normal” is for other known similar resources, and designing your application deployment to guarantee this same level of performance.
    • Reduce the amount of time troubleshooting issues in a new environment due to application stacks that have not been optimized for next generation technologies.
      Track number of connections over time, and compare to data rates in order to extrapolate per user averages and appropriately define bandwidth requirements (click to view larger).
    • Visibility into current network and application utilizations, providing the means to appropriately change bandwidth sizing based on actual traffic patterns between your different user sites and the business critical services they access.
    • Monitor complex multi-tier application transactions during different stages of application deployment, all while being able to correlate site performance to individual transactions that may illustrate deficiencies in the new deployment model.
    • Prior, during, and on-going of the delivery of new services to end users, validate the impact on your infrastructure. Network and Application SLA support allows your team to communicate a quantified level of performance back to the business.
