NASDAQ OMX Group Selects SevOne to Monitor its Global Network
“In our business, it’s imperative that we understand application traffic and prevent performance issues before they impact critical network services,” said Lou Modano, Senior Vice President, Global Infrastructure Services, of the NASDAQ OMX Group. “As we evaluated vendors in this space, we found SevOne had a new way to approach the collection of performance data and prediction of potential service degradation.”
Are you experiencing issues and hidden costs with Network Performance Management?
There is no shortage of Network and Application Performance Monitoring tools (open source and costed) available, however there is an increasingly common list of problems, frustrations and costs being experienced by IT and network management teams.
You may be experiencing other issues including difficulties associated with WAN utilization, speed of analysis and reporting (especially at scale), multiple vendor environments, and use of a range of performance monitoring tools rather than one that provides complete visibility. If you’re relying on multiple tools from a variety of vendors to monitor individualized segments of your network, you’re probably paying a hefty amount in aggregated maintenance contracts. At the same time, you’re dealing with troubleshooting delays because you have to check multiple tools, and added costs that come with training new staff on each tool’s protocols.
Performance monitoring is a lot like air travel these days. You think you know what the trip will cost when you purchase the ticket, but just wait until the hidden costs start adding up. The following table looks at additional issues and hidden costs associated with many network performance management tools (click on each heading for further details):
Storage Capacity, Costs & Retrieval Speed
Many performance monitoring tools don’t maintain raw polled data more than a couple weeks. Instead, they roll-up data over time into hourly or daily averages, leaving you with less accurate data for historical reporting and capacity planning. How much storage might you need to maintain a year of as-polled data? It depends on the size of your monitored domain. But keep in mind; many tools will come to a crawl if they’re asked to report on such large data sets.
Vendor Lock-In & Lack of Inter-Operability
Rather than an open system, the vendor prevents interoperability with other platforms and, thus, costs you potential savings gained through lack of automation and information sharing.
Poorly Developed APIs increasing development times and costs
Access to a poorly designed API is inconsistent and requires you to repeat the development cycle for every attempt to hook into your performance data, resulting in wasted development hours.
Scalability Limitations Leading to Increased Downtime and Revenue Loss
Monitoring and reporting slows down as data sets get bigger, lessening your ability to detect and avoid performance impacting events in real-time, which can lead to downtime and related revenue loss.
Additional Staffing Costs
You find out you need more IT staff to administer the solution including a database administrator, installation of agents on devices, plus training of additional report writers. As a former developer for a prominent service provider recounted, “We had three permanent staff members dedicated solely to report writing for our performance monitoring platform, because it was simply too time consuming to generate ad-hoc reports from that particular application. You can imagine how those salaries inflated the overall cost of the solution.
Add-On Modules Required at Additional Cost
You may need to purchase additional modules to collect and monitor different data types (SNMP, Flow, WMI, JMX, etc.). For example, a vendor may charge US$25,000 for their core monitoring application, but if you want to monitor NetFlow (that’s an additional US$15,000), servers (US$3,000 more), virtualized servers (US$3000 more), storage monitoring (another US$300) and so it goes on….and up.
Architectectural Deployment & Costs
You must provision and administer various servers for polling/data collection, databases, reporting, alerting, etc. For example, one prominent performance monitoring vendor’s documentation details how it would take 29 servers to monitor one million objects (“object” defined as a component of a device, such as memory, CPU, disc, etc.). The database server alone might run US$20,000, with each polling engine server potentially costing US$8,000 each (just for the hardware). And don’t forget the main application server – another US$8,000 or so.

Unique Value Proposition
A Cost Effective Alternative
Unlike the airlines, SevOne won’t stick you with hidden costs once you’re on board. This comprehensive performance monitoring solution can help you cost-justify an upgrade to a new platform by eliminating most, or even all, of the ancillary and hidden costs that may be associated with your current system.
Migrating to a modern performance monitoring solution can be as easy as putting a SevOne appliance in your data center, plugging in the power cord and the Ethernet cable, and watching the platform discover what’s on your network. The SevOne infrastructure monitoring solution provides cost predictability and avoids the budgetary pitfalls of other approaches by eliminating the hidden costs.

INFRASTRUCTURE MONITOR
INTEGRATED METRICS, FLOWS AND LOGS
Click on the image above to download the datasheet
More and more of today’s service delivery environments are moving to hyperscale-based infrastructures. This creates a tidal wave of data and information that needs to be monitored and analyzed, including performance metrics, data flows & logs.SevOne helps achieve this goal by removing visibility gaps and providing true speed at scale that allows you to leverage the power of integrated metrics, flows and logs.
With SevOne, users can now understand what happened (metrics), quickly pivot to understand why it happened (logs) and see who it happened to (flows) — all in one integrated infrastructure monitoring system.
Zlatko Zahirovic, Manager of Wireless Network Connectivity Engineering Bell Mobility
With SevOne, we trust 100% of our performance data. I can’t say that about other vendors we’ve worked with.
PERFORMANCE APPLIANCE SOLUTION
A SINGLE DASHBOARD FOR INTEGRATED METRICS, FLOWS AND LOGS
By providing a single, easy-to-use dashboard that seamlessly integrates metrics, flows and logs, the SevOne Performance Appliance (PAS) provides true Speed at Scale – so you get access to all your data in real-time, for continuous service delivery insight.
SevOne PAS is today’s fastest, most scalable and most comprehensive data collection, monitoring, reporting and analysis solution. Each appliance is capable of monitoring performance metrics and flow data — all while scaling to support billions of monitored objects as part of a SevOne ClusterTM. When integrated with the SevOne Performance Log Appliance, SevOne PAS becomes your single dashboard for integrated performance metrics, flows and logs across the entire infrastructure.
