Enterprises and service providers looking to scale their IT infrastructures are adopting hyper-converged platforms like the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform to scale easily with increased flexibility, easier management, and lesser CAPEX costs. The Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform converges computing and storage into a hardware appliance that runs virtual workloads using the native Nutanix AHV Acropolis hypervisor, VMware ESX vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, or Citrix Hypervisor. This distributed computing architecture gives the ability to add needed resources on-demand.
While hyper-converged infrastructures are easy to scale, proactive monitoring and management is extremely important. A slowdown or failure of a hyper-converged server impacts several virtual machines and the applications running on them.
As with any hardware infrastructure, Nutanix AHV nodes experience performance bottlenecks, and IT staff needs to keep constant vigil on the hyper-converged framework, identify bottlenecks and fix issues.
Nutanix AHV Prism management software gives monitoring insight into the Nutanix AHV Acropolis hypervisors and the VMs running on these hypervisors. But Nutanix Prism is not sufficient for organizations that virtualize their Nutanix AHV infrastructure on VMware ESX, Hyper-V, or Citrix Hypervisor. Additionally, knowing that a VM is consuming resources is not sufficient. IT admins need to be able to determine why the VM is resource consuming - is it due to one application or the workload? Additionally, it is important to monitor actual application workloads that are running on Nutanix AHV nodes so the application architects and service owners can avoid performance degradation for end-users.
After thorough research, we selected Nutanix AHV and eG Innovations as preferred vendors for our Future Workspace offering. The superb integration of Nutanix AHV and the eG Enterprise monitoring platform provides easy performance monitoring and management capabilities, resulting in positive business outcomes for us and our customers.
eG Enterprise delivers total performance visibility throughout your Nutanix AHV infrastructure including key components, such as hypervisor, virtual machines, operating system, server resources (memory, CPU, etc.) and storage disks, clusters, and containers managed by Nutanix.
Key features:
eG Enterprise uses Nutanix AHV REST API to interact with Prism software to collect performance metrics of Nutanix AHV Acropolis hypervisor, the controller VM (CVM) and other virtual machines running on Acropolis. eG Enterprise adopts an agentless monitoring approach leveraging its out-of-the-box integration with Nutanix.
Leverage built-in reports in eG Enterprise to analyze how much resources are being consumed by the virtual machines (outside view of VM), and what application workload and processes are hogging resources within the VMs (inside view of VM). Perform ‘what-if’ analysis and determine how many more VMs can be supported on each host and when you will need to invest in additional Nutanix AHV nodes based on business demand.
Whether you are using Nutanix AHV on the KVM-based Acropolis hypervisor, VMware ESX vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, or Citrix XenServer, eG Enterprise has got you covered.
eG Enterprise specializes in delivering deep performance diagnosis and analytical insights for 500+ packaged applications out of the box. Using its correlative intelligence, eG Enterprise automatically maps and lets you visualize your application delivery stream—from the application to VM to storage clusters. Easy drill-downs and intuitive dashboards allow you to identify bottlenecks in just a few clicks.
Supported applications include Citrix, SAP, Oracle, Siebel, PeopleSoft, SharePoint, Microsoft Dynamics, Exchange, Active Directory, and more. See all supported technologies.
