TrackITOnline to distribute VMTurbo’s intelligent workload management software for cloud and virtualised environments

Melbourne, 30^th Oct 2012 – TrackITOnline, a leading Enterprise Solutions software distributor, and VMTurbo, the leading provider of intelligent workload management software for cloud and virtualised environments, today announced that TrackITOnline will distribute VMTurbo’s industry-leading management solutions through its base of value-added resellers in Australia and New Zealand.

VMTurbo delivers an intelligent and automated control plane for cloud and virtualised datacentres. Easy to deploy and simple to administer, VMTurbo Operations Manager ensures application performance, operational efficiency and optimal resource utilisation.

“The maturity phase of virtualisation is clearly in the stage of optimising existing infrastructure, VMTurbo fits perfectly into the management tools we have and offers a highly demanded capability to automate the allocation of resources”

“Virtualisation adoption has reached critical mass at most organisations, exposing the need for purpose-built management solutions,” stated Bernie Hannon, global director of channels at VMTurbo. “We’re working with channel partners like TrackITOnline in response to market demand. TrackITOnline brings a unique combination of skills and experience introducing innovative, breakthrough technologies such as VMTurbo Operations Manager to the region, making them an ideal distribution partner for us.”

 VMTurbo Operations Manager is changing the way that virtual data centres are managed. It closes the loop between collecting data and controlling the environment via a prescriptive approach that automates the decision-making process and controls the environment by continuously and intelligently allocating resources and making workload placement decisions to ensure peak performance. It dynamically determines how to best accommodate existing workload demand, as well as planning for short, medium and long-term fluctuations based on organic growth and environmental changes. In doing so, it enables administrators to ensure service levels, while maximising resource investment—namely, operational staff and physical infrastructure.

The technology that powers VMTurbo Operations Manager’s intelligent workload management solution is its patented Economic Scheduling Engine. It continuously assesses performance and resource contention across the environment and tunes configurations to achieve optimal operating conditions. The market-based approach uses pricing principles and supply and demand models to automate the decision-making process – aligning application workload requirements with available resource capacity. Through powerful data correlation capabilities the technology provides immediate actions to prevent performance and utilisation problems that would otherwise be difficult to identify. This gives IT the control it needs to meet business objectives and eliminates the reactive, time-consuming, and labor-intensive fire-fighting typical with monitoring-and-alerting solutions.

VMTurbo Operations Manager delivers actionable improvements in less than 30 minutes since there are no new databases to configure, no thresholds to set, and no time to learn what is “normal” in the environment. The solution is easily downloaded and installed as a virtual appliance with console access from any browser.  It supports VMWare vSphere and vCloud Director, Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, CloudStack, and Red Hat Enterprise Virtualisation – all of which can be managed from a single instance of Operations Manager.
