Constant and consistent monitoring of the network infrastructure in order to guarantee immediate support response and uptime is a primary concern in business today.
Rob Sussman, joint-MD of national network integrator and infrastructure management specialist Integr8 IT, says the company has assimilated a monitoring software solution called G8Keeper into its service offering to meet a large demand for real-time, proactive monitoring of servers.
"It has become critical to manage and monitor server infrastructure on a 24/7 basis. Clients require this service as an extension to their proactive support service, in order to immediately resolve any issues that may arise," explains Sussman.
"The G8Keeper solution runs alongside our existing service offerings - including Proactive Support Contracts, Full and Partial Outsource, MPLS Global VPNs and Internet connectivity, and D8Vault, with alerts to our national call centre for any issues that a client may experience. Essentially, the solution helps us to remain ahead of development at client sites."
Additional value is transferred to the client as the solution is co-located at the MTN switching centre and enables a company to acquire Internet connectivity and constant monitoring service from any location in the world.
"This is an enhancement of our existing service agreement and solidifies the existing proactive maintenance aspect of our partnership with clients. It is an affordable means of ensuring greater uptime and control over the server environment," adds Sussman.
