Data Sheet WisdomPack for Enterprise Storage and WisdomPack for Software Defined Storage (SDS)

Correlate storage behavior with application Challenges Faced by Application, Infrastructure performance for Enterprise Storage and and Storage Teams WisdomPack for SDS IT assets are dispersed VirtualWisdom® WisdomPack for Enterprise Storage is a key building block of your full-stack infrastructure • Some workloads run on-premise using SAN attached monitoring and analytics platform. storage, others use storage virtualizers, still others rely on software defined storage or Hyper Converged Infrastructure

Visibility is limited • Native monitoring tools do not have the heterogeneous view needed to understand your entire infrastructure

• Data fidelity and application awareness are Figure 1: Single pane of glass view of compute assets onpremise and in universally lacking in most vendor monitoring tools the public cloud.

Monitoring tools are vendor specific WisdomPack for Enterprise Storage and • Each storage vendor provides element managers for WisdomPack for SDS provisioning and monitoring their own storage array but visibility across other vendor products is either • Brings storage insight out of the shadows and into the lacking or non-existent limelight of your full stack monitoring platform

• Understands how your application workloads stress No single pane of glass for monitoring all assets your storage resources • Siloed infrastructure monitoring tools create expensive • De-risks application service delivery on shared war room situations and increase MTTR storage • What is missing is a single dashboard that cross- correlates metrics from compute, switching and storage with an application perspective to derive meaningful insights for running the business at peak efficiency VirtualWisdom WisdomPack for Enterprise Predictive Capacity Management Storage and WisdomPack for SDS provide • Predict time-to-zero for enterprise storage or software critical monitoring capabilities for your storage defined storage infrastructure Workload Infrastructure Balancing Application Service Assurance • Analyze how your on-premise workloads behave • Use a single pane of glass to proactively manage end-to-end using sophisticated workload balancing and assure application service levels across physical, algorithms virtual and cloud-based hosts • Proactively rebalance your infrastructure using the • Ensure a seamless interface between the compute WisdomAI recommendation engine. WisdomAI is the and storage layers industry leading AIOps and augmented intelligence • Map applications through the infrastructure to your engine storage systems in a single topology view Problem Resolution and Avoidance • Identify unintended overlap of shared storage • Isolate and remediate problems using a run-book resources between higher and lower tier applications style methodology with guided and automated investigations around workflows such as analyzing “noisy neighbors” WisdomPack for Enterprise Storage: Key Features
