Blue Medora Strengthens VMware vRealize Solution Offerings With New True Visibility Suite Packages 

Aug. 30 -- Blue Medora, a leading innovator in enterprise cloud and datacenter management, today announced an agreement with VMware, a leader in cloud infrastructure and virtualization technology, to include the Blue Medora True Visibility Suite for VMware vRealize Operations on the list of products offered by VMware resellers. The True Visibility Suite bundles multiple management packs into various editions, aligned with the vRealize Operations editions, and offers a convenient way for customers to choose and deploy multiple management packs with streamlined licensing. This greatly simplifies the purchasing, installation and licensing process.

Under the new arrangement, all VMware resellers can package and sell the True Visibility Suite with approved editions of VMware vRealize Operations, vRealize Suite, vCloud Suite as well as vSphere with Operations Management, expanding Blue Medora’s reach from hundreds of resellers to more than 75,000 VMware resellers.

The Blue Medora True Visibility Suite simplifies cloud infrastructure and datacenter management with a complete view of the IT stack – from infrastructure to applications. The solution includes dozens of VMware-enabled plugins that aggregate individual resource data from cloud, compute storage, database, and application leaders including Amazon, Cisco, Citrix, Mongo, Microsoft, NetApp, Oracle and SAP.

“IT professionals are increasingly turning to their solution providers for help moving their operations to the cloud or software-defined data centers,” said Nathan Owen, CEO and founder of Blue Medora. “The True Visibility Suite provides a simple and comprehensive solution for IT pros by identifying and preventing issues before they spread to other parts of the IT stack.”

“As VMware and our partners now have the ability to resell True Visibility Suite, it will be easier for our customers to extend real-time performance and capacity management capabilities of vRealize Operations throughout their entire heterogeneous IT stack, from application to hardware infrastructure,” said Purnima Padmanabhan, vice president of product management, Cloud Management Business Unit, VMware. “The True Visibility Suite for VMware makes vRealize Operations an ideal offering for correlating operations data together for both on- and off-premises SDDC environments.”

By deploying intelligent, policy-based automation, VMware and Blue Medora partners can help enterprise IT end-users simplify operations and capacity management for virtualized and cloud environments.

“Sovereign Systems focuses on helping customers move from error-prone and time-consuming manual processes to automation with the Sovereign Cloud Management Platform (CMP),” said Pam Coffey, virtualization and cloud practice manager at Sovereign Systems. “Having proactive, end-to-end visibility into capacity and performance is a critical component of an automation solution. Blue Medora’s True Visibility Suite for vRealize Operations gives us, and our customers, the insights required for a compliant, agile and cost-effective Sovereign CMP.”
