Data centre automation is increasing in importance. In fact, Gartner identified it as one of the key pieces of technology for cloud and data centers in their June 2013 IT Infrastructure & Operations Management Summit. However, what about automation for your adaptive monitoring needs? This is one of the most neglected pieces of automation. At the same time, it?s one of the most important. Automation drives the core need for network visibility ? delivering the right data to the right destination at the right time.

The whitepaper by Ixia illustrates two fundamental scenarios for adaptive monitoring automation ? data centre provisioning within large enterprises and service providers, and maximising monitoring tool investments within the enterprise. Both scenarios demand the real-time responsiveness of adaptive monitoring.

The user cannot be everywhere at one time, and neither can your monitoring tools. Adaptive monitoring lets user virtually move the monitoring switch wherever it needs to be, allowing the user to control capital expenditures while capturing the network information one needs.
