VMware intros Hyperic 4.4 for app performance

BANGALORE, INDIA: VMware, Inc., a provider in virtualization solutions, today announced the launch of SpringSource Hyperic 4.4, an solution for managing and monitoring custom applications.

Through integration with VMware vCenter Server, Hyperic 4.4 now maintains a continually updated inventory of VMware vSphere ESXi and ESX hosts, enabling IT Administrators to more rapidly pinpoint, correct and prevent application performance problems wherever they occur across physical, virtual and private cloud infrastructures.

As organizations deploy an increasing proportion of their custom applications across virtual and cloud infrastructures, the dynamic nature of virtualized application resources has placed new demands on application operators needing visibility into the performance of those applications.

Hyperic 4.4’s VMware vCenter Server integration enables application operators to ensure application performance despite this increased pace of change, said a press release.

Hyperic, a key element of SpringSource’s software suite, supports applications running on both physical and virtual infrastructure, providing in-depth real-time performance data on more than 75 technologies used to develop modern web applications and enabling customers to ensure that applications meet their service level commitments through reduced application downtime and improved performance.

“Hyperic 4.4 delivers a completely new level of integration with VMware vCenter Server designed to streamline the task of managing ,virtualized applications” said Javier Soltero, CTO of Management Products for the SpringSource division of VMware.

He added that Hyperic provides system administrators complete, automatic visibility of virtual infrastructure resources as well as a completely new user interface built to enable analysis and correlation of every metric and event from VMware vSphere hosts up to the application.
