Zyrion traverse

Zyrion Traverse is a Business Service Management (BSM) solution that utilizes the concept of ‘business service containers’ for correlating application and network problems. BSM has gained prevalence in the network management arena in recent years. It centers around an approach for information technology (IT) operations and management that provides more then just a technology perspective by helping organizations better manage and monitor their end-to-end business processes.

BSM has been explicitly identified as a best practices area in the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL). ITIL is a well recognized and broadly adopted set of frameworks and concepts that describe best practices for infrastructure management and operations.

BSM solutions that utilize business container technology enable IT and business personnel to create unique virtual views of discrete business services, and makes the alignment of infrastructure technology with business outcomes a reality. The technology allows linking applications and underlying infrastructure to services such as ordering and payroll.

olution Overview

Most BSM solutions, like Zyrion Traverse, also provide broader application and network management capabilities that include integrated fault and performance monitoring. This ensures organizations have an end-to-end view of their infrastructure and processes. Zyrion (pronounced "zeye-ree-on"), was founded in 2007 by the core team of Fidelia Technology (acquired by Network General Corporation in 2006). Prior to starting Fidelia, the founder- Vikas Aggarwal, was the author of NOCOL/SNIPS - one of the first open source network monitoring packages on the Internet (see References below).

Some features of Zyrion Traverse include:
* monitoring of network services such as (ICMP, SMTP, POP3, HTTP, NNTP).
* polling routers, switches and firewalls using SNMP
* monitoring servers and operating systems (processor load, disk usage, syslogs, windows event logs)
* monitoring of virtual machines vmware or Microsoft virtual server
* extensible and open API which allows using languages such as Perl, C++, Java, PHP, Python, etc.
