vOPS Server Standard is simple to Download and provides immediate & measurable value.

vOPS Server Standard (formerly VKernel vOperations Suite) provides award-winning vSphere, Hyper-V and Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) performance analysis, capacity planning, optimization, reporting and chargeback. Within 20 minutes, VM administrators are presented with actionable intelligence derived from expert-set pre-configuration that includes:

• Detection of VM performance issues accompanied by specific remediation steps
• Identification of capacity available for additional VMs
• Discovery of data waste such as abandoned VM images

vOPS Server Standard is unique in rapidly providing visibility into the performance, capacity and cost health of a virtualized environment.

VM administrators requiring deep monitoring, workflow automation or extensive reporting configurability should explore these capabilities in vOPS Server Enterprise.

Key Features:

• Automatically remediate VM performance issues
• Identify optimal VM placements and additional workload capacity
• Automate VM re-sizing for CPU and Memory

Operational Benefits:

• Automatically identify the root cause and remediation actions to VM performance problems
• Understand current and future capacity bottlenecks to stay ahead of increasing virtual machine demand
• Increase VM performance by optimizing Hyper-V, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) and VMware memory, CPU and storage allocations

Business Benefits:

• Defer equipment purchasing and maximize hardware use through higher VM density and reclaiming resources
• Decrease troubleshooting time for VM performance issues
• Accelerate virtualization of mission-critical applications
