BMC Performance Assurance for Servers

 

Business Challenge

The success of an IT organization is measured by cost-effectively delivering optimal levels of service while simultaneously keeping pace with complex and changing environments. Complex multi-tier/Web architectures and mission-critical business applications challenge the infrastructure. Increasing user communities, new business models, and competitive threats challenge the business. IT's mission is to ensure that both technology and business requirements are met within financial constraints.

Business Need

  • Provide cost-effective performance management for all current and future business needs
  • Minimize business risk across IT infrastructure or application changes
  • Simplify and proactively manage performance information in business terms
  • Reduce the costs of server sprawl by deploying required resources exactly when required
  • Demonstrate proactively the cause-effect relationships business decisions have on infrastructure

Our Solution

BMC Performance Assurance for Servers enables effective ITIL® capacity management processes by ensuring that the capacity of the IT infrastructure matches the evolving demands of the business in the most cost-effective and timely manner. Real-time and historical analysis ensures your ability to identify and resolve application bottlenecks and performance issues. Advanced statistical analysis and predictive modeling identifies trends, providing rapid recognition of normal and abnormal usage, and reveals the impact of changes on your business before service levels are threatened.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Establishes a common view between IT and business to reduce finger pointing and speed problem solving via workload-oriented modeling
  • Discovers exceptions to normal performance in environments via statistical analysis to concentrate scarce resources on true business problems
  • Controls costs while setting achievable service level goals by determining the business impact of resource changes with predictive modeling
  • Prevents service problems by predicting impact of change on application responsiveness through multi-system workload-oriented predictive modeling
  • Optimizes and tunes existing systems/applications to maximize usage and defer spending using advanced modeling capabilities
  • Reduces risks by making correct business decisions based on complete and accurate data and performance analysis
  • Saves problem resolution time by using statistical and modeling analysis to identify the root-cause of throughput and other performance bottlenecks
