NerveCenter® and Security Management Center Deliver Performance, Scalability, Availability, and Low TCO for Mission-Critical IBM BladeCenter Environments
Blade Systems Insight, Savannah, GA. - April 10, 2007 - OpenService, Inc., a leader in Enterprise Event Management (EEM), announced today that their NerveCenter® and Security Management Center Solutions have been qualified as Blade.org solutions and are available for use with IBM BladeCenter servers.
"OpenService NerveCenter® and Security Management Center Solutions helps Network Managers and Security Managers who are under constant pressure to increase operational efficiency and responsiveness," said Ted Joseph, CEO, OpenService. "Many are choosing to consolidate their computing resources into a smaller number of physical and logical components and improve how they allocate resources to reduce operating costs. OpenService EEM solutions help customers obtain the maximum benefit from their investment in IBM BladeCenter servers."
In one customer success story, a major financial services institution has deployed NerveCenter on Solaris SPARC servers, integrated with Tivoli Netcool and HP OpenView. The combined management solution was recently migrated to an IBM BladeCenter system. "The customer experienced an order-of-magnitude increase in performance over the original implementation," said Geoffrey Coulter, CTO, OpenService. "As a result, fewer less costly blade servers were used and the entire solution was contained in a single BladeCenter system requiring less space, less power and simpler cabling."
"The ecosystem of solutions available on IBM BladeCenter continues to grow at a phenomenal pace," said Doug Balog, Chairman of Blade.org, and Vice President and Business Line Executive for IBM BladeCenter Business Line Executive at IBM. "OpenService has been an active member of the Blade.org community and its latest solutions are already proving beneficial for the IBM BladeCenter clients we serve."
