IntelliMagic Vision for SAN -
Your Single Solution for Storage Management
Monitor the performance, capacity & configuration of your multi-vendor SAN infrastructure in a single view.
Reduce your costs and mean time to resolution, and safely get the most value out of your SAN infrastructure with built-in architecture specific intelligence and statistical anomaly detection.
Multi-Vendor Performance, Capacity and Configuration Monitoring
Storage Performance Management
Proactively Monitor and Optimize Your Multi-Vendor SAN Performance
HOW
IntelliMagic Vision for SAN provides a single pane of glass for monitoring the health and performance of your entire SAN / NAS infrastructure.
IntelliMagic Vision’s built-in artificial intelligence proactively detects issues and potential bottlenecks developing inside your storage arrays that could cause delays in application performance and hurt your business if left undetected and vastly reduces mean time to resolution for issues.

Capacity Planning and Forecasting
Safely Predict Storage Growth and Avoid Capacity Constraints
HOW
IntelliMagic Vision tracks key capacity metrics over time to calculate the consumption rate over time, providing a comprehensive view of the capacity grown and free space expiration at a storage system and storage pool level, allowing you time to organically plan for additional storage for the impacted storage system before capacity constraints present an issue.
Change detection charts identify utilization patterns that deviate from a 30-day baseline, allowing you to easily identify anomalous growth.

End-to-End Configuration Topology
Seamlessly Navigate from VMware Performance to Back-end Performance
HOW
Evaluating VMware performance requires holistically considering not only VMs, ESX hosts, and datastores, but also external factors such as SAN fabric and storage system performance.
IntelliMagic’s breakthrough integration of VMware performance and configuration data changes the game for SAN administrators. Visualize your entire infrastructure from the VMware guest through the ESX Host, to the connected fabric ports, and see the related switch ports and LUNs in a single view.

Key Features
Proactive Health Insights
Automated Health Insights leverage hardware-specific AIOps functions to identify and prevent the most common storage and fabric performance and capacity issues.
Health Insights include time, multiple metrics, multiple components, and AI-rated metrics in a single view to provide preventive focused insights. In this case, this system is showing throughput constraints, front-end response time, front-end read response time and port read response time issues, indicating serious performance risk.
Advanced Statistical Analysis and Anomaly Detection
Advanced statistical functions provide performance and capacity anomaly detection. This allows you to not only see what has changed, but also determine the magnitude and significance of that change.
IntelliMagic Vision's Change Detection functions automatically identify significant workload changes in your Storage, Host (Cluster), Virtual Machine and Switch port environment so that you can investigate anomalies before they impact shared resources in the environment.
Accurate Capacity Forecasting
Capacity forecasting leverages AIOps functions to understand future storage capacity requirements and prevent capacity constraints.
IntelliMagic tracks key capacity metrics over time and calculates the consumption rate over time to provide a comprehensive view of the capacity growth and free space expiration at a storage system and storage pool level.
The number of days until running out of space can be leveraged to purchase more storage for the impacted storage system.
Configuration Analytics
IntelliMagic dynamically creates topology views which can be used for troubleshooting end-to-end connectivity. IntelliMagic also uses this technology combined with best practices to automatically identify orphaned ports, orphaned volumes, asymmetrical connectivity, single paths for ESX host and masking views, orphaned zones and others.
Configuration analytics visually constructs all of the hosts connected through the fibre channel fabric from the VMware guest to the back-end storage LUN and its associated disk drives and offers interactive drill downs and descriptions to easily learn and investigate.
AIOps via SaaS Delivery
Advantages to adopting a cloud model include rapid implementation (no lead time to install and setup the product locally), minimal setup (only for transmitting SMF data), offloading staff resources required to deal with SMF processing issues or to install product maintenance, and easy access to IntelliMagic consulting services to supplement local skills.
