Transaction Network Services (TNS), a provider of data communication services for transaction-oriented applications, has deployed InfoVista to help manage the performance of its network: "TNS has deployed a comprehensive network management system to monitor transactions through each step of the network. This means that we can locate problems with precision, resolve them in the shortest possible time, and report accurate measurements of service quality to customers," says Rick Ferrante, Network Engineer, TNS. "InfoVista reports real-time and historical data to help us identify potential problem areas and assist in planning for increasing capacity demands." InfoVista provides statistics on a variety of equipment including Routers and LAN switches, WAN interfaces, IP accounting and database servers and supplies real-time and historical reporting to resolve operational issues and identify trends for network analysis. These reports are made available online and offline to TNS customers and internal staff. InfoVista also assists in the analysis of various network growth trends for strategic capacity planning to predict future requirements and meet anticipated demand.
