The product can also be installed in 15 minutes, and a single dashboard can scale to monitor 5,000-plus servers and 20,000-plus services. "Uptime 6 is a significant release that offers very deep visibility into the data center and is easy to implement and maintain," says Torsten Volk, senior analyst at Enterprise Management Associates. "This combination of powerful data center monitoring and low capex and opex constitutes a strong value proposition." He says the most significant aspect of the new release is the software's ability to, automatically and in real time, discover the topology of the VMware-driven data center--including clusters, VM hosts, VMs, resource pools, linked clones, storage relationships, individual blades and physical power supplies--without the use of agents. "Based on the historic and real-time analysis of the collected topology data, Uptime 6 is able to trigger scripts for vCenter Orchestrator to automatically deal with VM sprawl and resource bottlenecks."
