According to the enterprise systems management vendor, the partnership will bring to market Foglight, which is a management solution that helps enterprises monitor their virtual centres, VMware ESX servers and virtual machines.

Impact of virtualisation changes

The technology company said Foglight monitors the impact virtualisation changes can have on databases, applications and end-users. At the same time, it correlates the usage of resources on both physical servers and virtual machines.

"Companies are virtualising servers, desktops, storage and networks at an increasing pace," said Wong Wai Meng, managing director, BT Frontline, Singapore. "However, few companies have the tools to manage the dynamic changes created by virtualisation and their impact on mission-critical applications. We have found Foglight to be one of the best in class management solution in this space and we are indeed honoured to be able to partner Quest in offering this solution to the growing virtualisation market."
