Iselin, NJ August 21, 2012 - eG Innovations, the award-winning provider of intelligent performance management solutions for complex virtual, cloud and physical IT infrastructures, today announced a major release to its flagship offering, eG Enterprise. The new release builds on eG Innovations groundbreaking automated correlation and problem diagnosis technology to accelerate performance diagnosis, reduce operational cost, deliver user satisfaction and unlock the true potential of virtual, cloud and physical IT environments. eG Enterprise will be showcased for the first time at VMworld San Francisco in Booth # 2524.
"When users complain about slow performance, IT administrators come under fire while having to face their toughest challenge," said Mike Matchett, senior analyst, Taneja Group. "The root cause of thorny performance problems can stem from deep contention or misconfiguration issues, buried under layers of virtualization or hidden between IT domains. Isolating and diagnosing such issues by manually coordinating the efforts of multiple domain experts using domain-specific tools is time-consuming and costly, and sometimes just doesn't work. eG Innovations provides a unique approach to performance management that dramatically simplifies and accelerates the discovery, diagnosis, and resolution of performance issues so IT teams can deliver better service to their users while controlling delivery costs to the organization."
eG Enterprise embeds the industry's first virtualization-aware, root-cause diagnosis technology for managing the performance of services and applications running in complex virtual, cloud and physical environments. After auto-discovering all service components and dynamic dependencies, eG Enterprise correlates performance metrics across every layer, every tier - automatically and in real-time - across all silos, from desktop to datacenter. This patented approach delivers deep, actionable insights into the true causes of cross-domain service performance issues and enables administrators to pre-emptively and accurately detect, diagnose and fix root-cause issues before end users notice.
"As we work with our rapidly growing customer base, we've listened to their experiences to build an even better solution for automated performance management," said Srinivas Ramanathan, CEO of eG Innovations. "Version 5.6 builds on our history of innovation as we enable customer to overcome the challenges of managing application performance in dynamic and complex IT environments."
