SolarWinds improves Virtualization Management Capabilities for Hybrid IT

SolarWinds has announced its virtualization management solution, SolarWinds Virtualization Manager, offers IT Professionals and virtualization admins extended reach and visibility into virtualized infrastructures with new functionalities including baselines, role-based access control, and common alerting and reporting via integration with software that shares the SolarWinds technology "backbone."

SolarWinds Virtualization Manager delivers VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V capacity planning, performance monitoring, VM sprawl control, configuration management, and chargeback automation. The latest version of SolarWinds Virtualization Manager provides deeper integration with products that share the SolarWinds IT monitoring and management backbone, including SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor (SAM), offering virtualization admins extended visibility to their applications and physical servers in a uniquely affordable and enterprise-scalable solution.

"Virtualization management is not an island -- it's a necessary component to increasingly interdependent and complex hybrid IT infrastructures. Having advanced monitoring and management technology where applications operate on both virtualized and physical servers is now as critical for virtualization and systems admins as for any IT Pro to maintain strong infrastructure performance and to keep a business running," said Chris LaPoint, Vice President of Product Management, SolarWinds.

SolarWinds Virtualization Manager pricing starts at $2,995 and includes the first year of maintenance. For more information, including a downloadable, free 30-day evaluation, visit the SolarWinds website or call 866.530.8100.
