OmniTI (http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&url=http%3A%2F%2Fomniti.com%2F&esheet=6012292&lan=en_US&anchor=OmniTI&index=1) announced the availability of Reconnoiter (http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&url=http%3A%2F%2Flabs.omniti.com%2Ftrac%2Freconnoi ter%2Fwiki%2FGoals&esheet=6012292&lan=en_US&anchor=Reconnoiter&index=2), a new Open Source monitoring and trending system that handles highly distributed, heterogeneous environments and implement highly efficient probes for a rapidly growing number of services. As a full-service website consulting company that designs and manages sustainable architectures that can support hundreds of millions of users, OmniTI relies on being able to funnel its network monitoring back to a business intelligence system that is capable of graphing, trending, reporting and fault detection.
However, according to Gartner (http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsearchcio.techtarget.com%2Fnews%2 Farticle%2F0%2C289142%2Csid182_gci1355717%2C00.htm l&esheet=6012292&lan=en_US&anchor=Gartner&index=3), monitoring large-scale business data in real time can be a costly expense to the tune of $300,000 to $500,000 for software, with an additional 20% cost for maintenance. On top of that, the closer organizations get to real time monitoring, the more they have to upgrade their infrastructure and change business processes in order to use that data effectively. Clearly there’s a problem as many organizations can’t afford an implementation of that size.
“The open source community has responded by developing a number of tools doing different network monitoring tasks. However, they fall short in translating their monitoring and trending into business sense and this is where Reconnoiter shines,” said Theo Schlossnagle, CEO of OmniTI. “Not only do we save organizations from paying the painful price of installing and integrating multiple tools on one system but we’re able help our clients better leverage the Internet to add value to their businesses.”
