What Is vFoglight?
vFoglight is a powerful system and application performance management solution that
detects problems and alerts information technology managers. vFoglight has the ability
to dynamically create unique data schemas based on any data from any source. Rather
than store data based on how it is collected by the agents, vFoglight organizes data
based on your perception of the data. Using vFoglight, application and information
technology managers can understand user service levels and notify stakeholders when
those service levels are violated.
vFoglight helps you to:
• Focus on system and application availability and performance.
• Observe system capacity and application efficiency.
• Gauge user response time from multiple geographic locations.
• Identify and bridge gaps between business and information technology staff.
• Highlight historical information for planning and reporting.
