99 Vs. 99.9
What makes the Large Enterprises, Large?
– 99% Vs. 99.9% availability actually means difference of approx. 79 hrs downtime/ year
– For Large Enterprises the cost of downtime is huge; Typically ranges from $100K to over $1000K per hour.
– In other words Avg. downtime cost is approx. $20 million a year, if the availability is 99% when compared to 99.9%
5
99 Vs. 99.9Downtime – Type and Cause?
Gartner Says…“For these causes of downtime, strong IT operations and applications development processes are required. IT operational processes are vital to application service availability, but are often overlooked — especially in distributed application environments — because of architecture/infrastructure complexity, immaturity of the processes and tools, and a lack of commitment to the IT resources needed”

99 Vs. 99.9
Another report by Gartner states– “NSM: Often the Weakest Link in Business
Availability”
To avoid unnecessary and potentially devastating outages, you need a NMS that can tell you what’s happening 24x7, 365 days.
– Continuous availability is the first basic necessity for reliability.

Global Deployment Vs. Regional Teams
Distributed networks bring in their own challenges…
– Region or location specific tools to monitor devices
• At times to support multi-vendor devices those are very specific to their region for e.g. Hitachi in far east when compared to HP/ Cisco in far west

Global Deployment Vs. Regional Teams
Distributed networks bring in their own challenges…
– No mechanism to visualize alarms & extract reports from a centralized console.
– Centralized monitoring relies mostly on WAN links.– Need to support multi-languages

Global Deployment Vs. Regional Teams
Architectural difference with OpManager Enterprise Edition
– Central-Probe architecture – Support for wide industry standard monitoring protocols with out-
of-the-box device monitoring templates.– A centralized console to propagate network events across
remote sites. – Project performance trends and extract historical reports.– Local monitoring and management. Only refined data is pushed
(HTTP/ HTTPs over XML) to central location.– The communication happens over Internet/ Corporate WAN links
across Firewalls/ Proxy servers.– Multi-language support.

Scalability Vs. Maintainability
Scalability can be achieved in many ways, but how would you prefer to do it?
– Monitoring 100,000 interfaces or 10,000 nodes/ devices
15
Scalability Vs. Maintainability
Expensive datacenter footprints management– The cost of maintenance is not just for the
NMS but also for the servers it runs on.

Cost Vs. Longevity
Do more with less– Large numbers, multiple locations and
expensive downtime doesn’t liberalize the IT spending. Goal is still the same.
