SolarWinds® Observability, a fully-integrated, cloud-native SaaS offering that provides unified and comprehensive visibility for today’s modern, distributed, hybrid, and multi-cloud IT environments, is now available from SolarWinds, a provider of simple, powerful, and secure IT management software.
SolarWinds Observability helps customers accelerate digital transformation by providing powerful machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities that make managing highly complex IT environments simple. The new SaaS platform combines SolarWinds observability solutions for network, infrastructure, systems, application, database, digital experience, and log monitoring in a single end-to-end solution that spans private and public clouds with a single pane of glass. SolarWinds Observability is designed to help IT Operations and DevOps teams, developers, cloud architects, and IT executives achieve peak performance, compliance, and resilience by providing the actionable business insights required to identify and resolve issues.
The cloud, hybrid IT, remote workforces, and the introduction of new technology tools have resulted in increasingly complex IT environments for organizations all over the world, and as a result, technology professionals now have less visibility into their networks, applications, and infrastructures.
SolarWinds Observability is intended to address this issue by providing visibility into the entire environment—in both public and private clouds—as well as accelerating anomaly identification and resolution. SolarWinds Observability helps ensure optimal performance and superior user experience by enabling IT Ops, DevOps, and SecOps teams to shift from reactive to proactive postures, regardless of how distributed a business’s services are, where they run, or how frequently they change. SolarWinds Observability is a cloud-native offering that is available on both the Azure® and AWS® clouds.
“For more than 20 years, we have focused on providing customers with solutions to digitally transform their companies. Today marks a significant moment in our own transformation as we launch our most impactful observability solution to date,” said Sudhakar Ramakrishna, SolarWinds president and chief executive officer. “We designed SolarWinds Observability to support every customer—regardless of where they are on their cloud journey—and to deliver simplicity, security, and great value to DevOps, SecOps, CloudOps, and IT Ops professionals.”
“At SolarWinds, we’re laying the foundation for autonomous operations through both monitoring and observability solutions built to empower customers to move forward on their cloud and digital transformation journeys,” said Rohini Kasturi, chief product officer at SolarWinds. “With our Hybrid Cloud Observability and SolarWinds Observability offerings, customers have ultimate flexibility to deploy on a private cloud, public cloud, or as a service. We’re also simplifying our business model with node-based licensing and tier-based entitlements to support customers of all sizes.”
In addition, SolarWinds is releasing a new version of its Hybrid Cloud Observability solution. Hybrid Cloud Observability, which is deployed in customer data centers but can be easily implemented in hybrid environments, will now include enhanced anomaly detection capabilities powered by AI and ML. SolarWinds customers can migrate from on-premises to SaaS at their own pace thanks to Hybrid Cloud Observability.
SolarWinds Observability and Hybrid Cloud Observability build on the company’s success in network, system, infrastructure, database, IT service management, and application management software over the past 20 years. Both solutions were created with the SolarWinds Secure by Design principles in mind, as well as a strict adherence to an advanced, multi-layered security framework. SolarWinds Observability and Hybrid Cloud Observability fulfill the company’s goal of introducing SaaS and hybrid cloud observability solutions by 2022. Ramakrishna first shared this vision at the company’s Analyst and Investor Day in November 2021.
SolarWinds Observability comes after the company announced its new Transform Partner Program earlier this month. Through simple and AI-powered SolarWinds observability solutions, SolarWinds Transform enables partners to accelerate digital transformation for their customers.
