Data is collected around the clock, and we know when things happen on your network before you do. Our service team will manage the correction and remediation of problems and performance items proactively and effectively. Don’t let your system get lazy and develop problems that are costly and time consuming to fix. Instead, monitor health in a proactive way to ensure your system stays fighting fit.

24 x 7 Data Collection

Bluetowne’s monitoring system collects standard, critical and customized data points across you network from hard disk to switch port – and across all operating system management points – just to name a few.  Our monitoring solution will bring in data, categorize it, measure it, trigger alerts or clear alarms, and report on it.  We love data.  We even collect data on our data collection and monitoring system.  The more you know, the more you learn.

What We Monitor

We monitor and collect data on a multitude of systems and platforms.  We typically monitor and collect data on each physical item within the devices, down to the traffic traversing a specific switch port. Below is a sample list of a typical data collection and monitoring library:

• Networking Equipment
• Compute and Storage
• Operating Systems
• End-User Devices
• Security At All Layers
• Application Commands and Calls
• Database Traffic and Queries
• Overall System Health
• Internet and WAN
• Environmental

Automated Alerts

Accurate and timely alerting in the IT world can be as much about proper configuration as it is an art form.  Bluetowne precisely configures alert triggers and reports on them in a timely manner.  We can tame annoying alerts in a busy environment to the quiet hum of a finely tuned cabinet full of data center gear.  Sometimes alerts can become highly distracting and other times alerts are missed or overlooked and disasters start bubbling over.  Let our team provision our monitoring and alerting systems or assist you with customizing and fine tuning your existing monitoring and alerting systems.
