SquaredUp helps customers create dashboards that connect the dots. They do this by assisting users in visualizing and sharing data. And, for the most part, they do this by displaying in dashboards what is happening now. Of course, some visualizations show some historical values or whatnots, but tiles like the WebAPI tile only display a specific value at one particular moment in time. But have you ever wanted to “see” what your application looked like right before an outage?

The NiCE Log File Monitor Management Pack 2.0 is a FREE solution supporting the SCOM Community in next-level log file analysis.

I have been working on a couple of monitoring ideas for Cherwell. I didn’t see anything with a quick online search, and I enjoy authoring MPs to monitor applications, it is the closest I’ll get to 007. I’ve hit a major hurdle and I need to ask for a hand from the community. We have a lab environment that’s worked great while developing the Cherwell integration for Connection Center, however, it is not a good simulation for an actual deployment.

Thank you SCOM community for once again making SCOMathon a huge success! This year, our virtual conference on all things SCOM spanned not one, but two days, across multiple time zones – from Australia to the West Coast of the United States and everywhere in between.
