Discovery Services

• Get a complete picture of your IT assets and applications and their dependencies
• Connect people and processes to your IT ecosystem
• Improve IT visibility and alignment to your business
• Enrich audit and compliance reporting

Considering the complexity of modern IT environments, a discovery effort can be quite difficult and costly, lasting many months or longer. And since IT environments are dynamic, information gathered at the start of a data center transformation (DCT) project becomes outdated very quickly which can place business continuity in jeopardy.

Without a complete inventory of your IT assets and a full understanding of all relationships, any data center transformation (DCT) project can result in an IT environment that no longer works because a critical asset or dependency was overlooked.

Virima’s Discovery Services features our patent-pending EcosystemManager™ which jumpstarts any complex data center transformation project by capturing and correlating all necessary asset, configuration and dependency information as well as the often elusive human “tribal knowledge” and vast amounts of scattered documentation.

EcosystemManager™  Advantages:

• Collect data from existing management/scan tools
• Additional network scan tools included
• Automatically consolidate & correlate data
• Capture & index documentation
• Automate human capital intelligence gathering
• Map human dependencies & responsibilities
• Visually map application dependencies
• Map all configurable items (CI) to business processes
• Maintain asset/system event history
• Automated processes run continuously
• Ensure freshness of data

EcosystemManager™  intelligently correlates data from multiple sources and then builds an inventory database that serves as the core resource for the data center transformation project. It also keeps the IT asset inventory and dependency mapping database fresh throughout the DCT project and beyond, updating it as assets are added to or removed from the IT environment. EcosystemManager will continue to generate value after the IT discovery project is finished as it will provide IT operations managers and staff with greater insight into the overall IT ecosystem.
