PARIS -- InfoVista (NASDAQ: IVTA - News; Euronext IFV - FR0004031649), the leader in service-centric performance management software, announced today that Cable & Wireless has deployed InfoVista's VistaInsight software. It will be used as part of a managed service to deliver web-based reporting on server performance for one of Cable & Wireless' customers, a leading financial management and advisory company.
In order to maximize the server performance of Cable & Wireless' financial services customer, a dedicated solution was needed that would facilitate performance monitoring, troubleshooting, trend analysis and threshold alarming across various Domain Name System (DNS) services on its network. The solution also had to be capable of delivering real-time and historical reporting for a period of up to 14 months. To meet its customer's requirements, Cable & Wireless designed a managed service solution based on InfoVista's performance management software platform.
One of the key reasons Cable & Wireless chose InfoVista was its ability to support the automated discovery, collection, analytics and reporting on BMC Patrol Agents. Cable & Wireless was already using BMC Agents as its underlying technology to discover and monitor designated server systems on the network and wanted to maximize this investment.
"We evaluated a range of vendors but ultimately chose InfoVista because it integrated with our underlying BMC technology. We felt it offered superior support services and product capabilities, and therefore enables us to deliver an excellent solution that meets our customer's needs," said David Crawford, director of product management, Cable & Wireless. "In addition, as we have been using InfoVista to monitor our own IP network for the last five years, we already had the necessary skills and internal expertise to implement the technology and therefore could ensure it was a seamless experience for our customer."
