DigitalGlobe Deploys Nimsoft Monitor to Optimize Performance of Client-Facing Applications

CAMPBELL, Calif., May 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Nimsoft announced that DigitalGlobe (NYSE: DGI), a leading global provider of high-resolution earth imagery solutions, is deploying Nimsoft Monitor for comprehensive monitoring of its IT infrastructure and applications.

Nimsoft Monitor will replace disparate tools that DigitalGlobe is using within its infrastructure. By providing a clear, consolidated view of DigitalGlobe's environment, the solution will better empower the company's IT staff to help ensure optimal performance of its client-facing applications.

Nimsoft Monitor was selected for its ease of use and cross-platform integration. DigitalGlobe's IT team will also benefit from the solution's Unified Management Portal, which provides a single view of its systems and applications -- as well as the ability to create customized reports that meet the requirements of different audiences.

"Nimsoft Monitor allows us to consolidate diverse monitoring and reporting functions into a single solution that is easier to manage and use," said Sonya DeWitt, manager of the business solutions team at DigitalGlobe. "With Nimsoft Monitor, we can create customized dashboards and reports to meet our clients' requirements -- from technical personnel who need highly granular data on specific events to executive management requesting a top-level view of system and application performance."

DigitalGlobe will also use Nimsoft Unified Manager to monitor systems and applications at remote locations, including the company's cloud-based services. Nimsoft Monitor cloud support will help ensure the quality and consistency of those services.

"Nimsoft Monitor seamlessly integrates with complex cloud and on-premise environments, so customers like DigitalGlobe can quickly and cost-effectively gain the ability to more proactively and efficiently protect the reliability of critical services," said Chris O'Malley, Nimsoft CEO.  "This ability is especially important for emerging enterprises that need to aggressively invest in growth without sacrificing customer satisfaction or over-allocating resources to IT operations."

Nimsoft Monitor is a component of Nimsoft Unified Manager, a multi-tenant IT Management As-A-Service solution that combines industry-leading infrastructure monitoring and ready- to-use ITIL®-based service management capabilities in a single solution.
