multiple clouds.
It simplifies operations by automating management of infrastructure and
applications with automated workload balancing and proactive detection and
automatic remediation of issues and anomolies. It correlates operational and
business insights to help accelerate cloud planning and placement decisions
across multiple clouds, and reduces costs and risk by optimizing capacity
utilization, accuately forecasting capacity needs and enforcing standards.
vRealize Suite Standard edition delivers:
• Application-aware monitoring and troubleshooting - Centralize management
of SDDC and multi-cloud environments, accelerate time to value and
troubleshoot smarter with native integrations, unified visibility from
applications to infrastructure and actionable insights combining metrics and logs.
• Automated and proactive performance management - Simplify operations
with fully automated management of infrastructure and applications
performance. Automatically balance workloads, avoid contention and enable
proactive detection and automatic remediation of issues and anomalies
before end users are impacted. Streamline key IT processes while retaining
full control of IT operations.
• Cloud Planning, capacity optimization and compliance - Correlate
operational and cost insights to accelerate cloud planning, budgeting and
procurement decisions, control costs and reduce risk. Optimize cost and
resource usage through capacity management, reclamation and right sizing,
improve planning and forecasting and enforce IT and configuration standards.
