Littleton, MA, June 1, 2010 –Akorri, Inc., the leader in virtual infrastructure performance and capacity management for the dynamic data center, announced today that companies can use Akorri’s award-winning BalancePoint software to monitor and manage performance and utilization of their virtual environment to assure performance, reduce downtime of critical clinical applications, and control storage and VM growth. Palo Alto Medical Foundation, a not-for-profit health care organization that is a pioneer in the multispecialty group practice of medicine, is one such company.
“We selected BalancePoint because it gave us the “biggest bang for our buck”. Once we virtualized, we realized we needed a solution that would provide us with end-to-end performance insight from virtual machines to physical servers and the attached storage arrays. BalancePoint provided everything without agents and has been easy to implement and use,” said David Maldonado Systems Engineering Manager, for Palo Alto. “Virtualization is one of the primary ways we are controlling IT costs in the data center and feel much more comfortable virtualizing critical medical applications because of BalancePoint. We hope it will be an integral part of our virtualization environment for some time.”
“Because so many healthcare providers are using server and desktop virtualization to save money and improve care, we’ve seen a huge demand in the health care industry for a solution that optimizes performance of the virtual data center,” said Amy Rao, Founder and CEO from Integrated Archive Systems. “We provided BalancePoint to Palo Alto Medical because we knew that the BalancePoint would give them the best end-to-end visualization in their data center.”
“Palo Alto Medical, like many other Akorri customers, has found BalancePoint to be a great value by utilizing its unique reporting functions to help them plan for future virtualization needs,” said Allan Wallack, President and CEO for Akorri. “BalancePoint continues to demonstrate its value by delivering a complete view of the virtualized data center to help IT cut costs and more efficiently manage the services they provide from their infrastructure.”
