This free webinar for Federal Government users of SolarWinds software will showcase the latest features of SolarWinds Virtualization Manager (VMan) including new features that will be released in VMan 6.0 this quarter. This release brings integration between VMan and the popular SolarWinds Orion Network Performance Monitor (NPM) and Orion Server & Application Monitor (SAM) products to a new level. The integration gives NPM and SAM users improved visibility to performance of the virtualization environment that they depend on. This new release includes: • Prebuilt integration with SAM and the existing STM integration provide “in-context” monitoring of the entire application stack that spans: Application, VM, Host, Cluster, Datastore/Hyper-V storage, LUN, Raid Group and Spindles. • Integration with NPM and SAM that provides new data to the existing NPM and SAM Virtualization monitoring features, such as: VMware Datastore monitoring, deeper virtualization metrics, new virtualization management capabilities (e.g., capacity planning and VM sprawl management) • Enhanced Hyper-V storage object support • Additional speed, UI and security enhancements. Don’t miss this opportunity to participate in an interactive webcast with SolarWinds Federal Sales Engineers and SolarWinds Product Managers (that you probably see on thwack.com).
