SevOne and ExtraHop Networks Partner to Deliver the Industry's Best Application-Aware Network Performance Management Solution

Online, April 26, 2011 (Newswire.com) - SevOne, the new leader in network performance management, and ExtraHop Networks, a leading provider of network-based application performance management (APM) solutions, today announced a partnership to bring best-of-breed performance monitoring solutions to the market. The partnership combines NetFlow- and device-based monitoring with real-time application transaction analysis to provide the most scalable and comprehensive solution for ensuring enterprise-wide performance and reliability of mission-critical business applications.

"Appliance-based offerings can provide the most effective solution for end-to-end monitoring. Since they are, however, typically limited in functional scope to either the network or the application layer, an architecture based on combining two best of breed appliances would be very attractive," said Will Cappelli, research vice president at Gartner, Inc.

ExtraHop's Application Delivery Assurance system is the industry's first completely passive network appliance that provides application-level visibility with no agents, configuration, or overhead. SevOne's network performance management solution monitors millions of IT device elements and flows to keep increasingly complex networks, servers, and application infrastructure functioning at peak performance levels.

Through this partnership, SevOne and ExtraHop are delivering the industry's fastest, easiest-to-deploy, and most-scalable solution for ensuring end-to-end application performance and user response time. Joint customers will experience many of the following benefits:

• Enterprise-wide consolidated view of application and network performance
• Real-time analysis with proactive alerting and troubleshooting
• Ease of deployment, fast time to results, small solution footprint, and lower cost of ownership
• Rapid return on investment without the months of hassle of traditional APM deployments

"Until now, businesses seeking an application- and network-performance management solution have had to consider the downside of legacy and incumbent technology," said Jesse Rothstein, ExtraHop CEO and co-founder. "These tools rarely scale to modern IT environments, are difficult to deploy and maintain, and can perturb the very systems they are monitoring. The integration of best-of-breed products from ExtraHop and SevOne provides businesses with a compelling alternative to legacy management suites that are lagging further and further behind."

"SevOne is committed to providing a comprehensive application-aware network performance management solution including application-level visibility and end-user response time," said Mike Phelan, President and CEO of SevOne. "Partnering with an industry leader like ExtraHop enables us to deliver on this commitment, and we're enthusiastic about the new opportunities this relationship brings to the market."
