Virtual Instruments, the leader in Infrastructure Performance
Management, and Corning Cable Systems LLC, part of Corning
Incorporated's (NYSE: GLW) Telecommunications segment, today
announced that Corning Cable Systems Pretium EDGE® Tap Module, a
passive traffic access point that integrates seamlessly into the
Pretium EDGE® structured cabling solution, is certified for
interoperability with Virtual Instruments' VirtualWisdom solution
devices. Virtual Instruments validated the interoperability of the
Tap Module monitor output with both the SAN Performance Probe and
SAN Insight Rover to ensure transparent, error-free access to the
Fiber Channel SAN traffic at line rate.
"Our customers continue to validate that comprehensive,
accurate, and timely monitoring from the physical layer is the best
way to optimize infrastructure performance," said Skip Bacon, chief
technology officer, Virtual Instruments. "The visibility enabled by
a tap is the foundation from which customers can gain a detailed
view into performance across the physical, virtual and cloud
layers. It's an honor to work with Corning to help our mutual
customers streamline the deployment of taps in the physical layer
infrastructure."
"We are delighted to be working with Virtual Instruments to
demonstrate the value of our passive tapping solution with their
systems," said Stuart Hoiness, senior vice president, Enterprise
Networks, Corning Cable Systems. "Virtual Instruments is the
undisputed Fibre Channel network performance leader, so it's very
important to us and to customers to show the compatibility of our
two product sets."
The Pretium EDGE® Tap Module combines the functionality of an
interconnect, cross-connect and optical tap in one easy-to-use
structured cabling module. This integrated approach simplifies the
deployment of taps, allows access to the monitor ports without
disruption to the live network link, and provides increased network
design flexibility. As part of the Pretium EDGE® Solutions family,
the Tap Module is fully compatible with other Pretium EDGE®
solution components, allowing for pay-as-you-grow Tap
deployment.
The monitor outputs from the Pretium EDGE® Tap Module connect
directly to Virtual Instruments SAN Performance Probe to enable
real-time, full line rate monitoring of the tapped links. The SAN
Performance Probe examines every frame and generates hundreds of
metrics each second to provide deep insight into the performance,
health, and utilization of the SAN. The VirtualWisdom solution
combines these metrics with those from the other VirtualWisdom
Probes to provide comprehensive monitoring, diagnostic, and
optimization capabilities spanning the virtual and physical server
and storage infrastructure.
