Reliable performance monitoring

Cisco Solution Innovation Award 2008

Strategic-minded and quality-oriented IT, network and telecommunications operators find it essential to operate performance management systems to ensure effective operation and high availability for information and communication systems, since this is the only way to identify performance degradations and problematic or critical levels of resource utilization. A well designed performance management system not only offers useful, detailed and descriptive information and help for operation experts for fault localization and troubleshooting, but also provides the management with a comprehensive picture of service performance. Furthermore, it may also provide data for end users of the information or communication systems being monitored. At the same time, performance management should generate warnings on network and system anomalies, which enables integration with other OSS applications.
