Geneos: Advanced analytics, forecasting, and data storage through the ITRS Analytics component

Geneos now includes data storage and analytics capabilities that provide intelligence to deliver end-to-end observability across an enterprise. Alongside the Gateways, ITRS Analytics is now a core part of Geneos.

With ITRS Analytics apps, you can enjoy better anomaly detection, noise reduction for large-scale monitoring, and deeper root cause analysis through a user-friendly, web-based interface.

The connection with Gateways, for example, allows running commands directly on entities and metrics within the ITRS Analytics Entity Viewer app, ensuring seamless access and instant history.

Smart alerting with ITRS Analytics Dynamic Thresholds app

Stay ahead of issues with Dynamic Thresholds in ITRS Analytics for smarter alerts, less noise, and faster detection.

As IT environments become more complex, setting the right alert thresholds can be difficult. The Dynamic Thresholds app in ITRS Analytics automatically adjusts thresholds based on real metric behavior, avoiding the limitations of static, one-size-fits-all settings. These adaptive thresholds reduce false positives, detect anomalies sooner, and require less manual maintenance, helping teams stay focused on real issues.

By learning instantly from historical data, the app can be deployed quickly and works alongside static or forecast-based rules, each generating its own signal. Users can preview and simulate changes before going live, ensuring minimal alert fatigue, and configurations can be moved easily across development, test, and production environments. Planned enhancements include support for annual or event-based seasonality and the ability to launch threshold creation from other areas of the UI.

Watch this product demo tour to know how to define a new dynamic threshold configuration.

Opsview: Improved passive results mechanism using Infrastructure Agent and Results Forwarder

Opsview Results Forwarder now supports receiving passive check results over HTTP from configured systems such as the Infrastructure Agent and Results Exporter. This new mechanism can act as a simpler, more secure replacement to the deprecated NSCA functionality in the old Opsview Agent and offers an alternative to the NRPE-based collector to Agent communication.

To use this functionality, the HTTP Receiver must be enabled in the Results Forwarder, and Infrastructure Agents or other Opsview systems must be configured to send results to the receiver using the correct credentials defined in its configuration.

Capacity Planner: AWS summary dashboard

The AWS visual summary dashboard displays key information about the AWS state.

When you log in to Capacity Planner, you can immediately see the total AWS spend in the last full calendar month, the recommendations on how you can save money by turning off idle instances, for right-sizing or removing EBS volumes.

Monthly costs chart displays your month by month breakdown of spend across AWS as well as the estimated spend and the predicted spend for the following month.

In the Services Costs chart you can see a breakdown of cost by the services that you are using.

This dashboard can be enabled if you are using an AWS solution.

OP5 Monitor: Hybrid IT environments

Many of our customers have started to incorporate cloud into their IT estate. This is a natural evolution, and OP5 Monitor shall continue to be a best-in-class monitoring tool for networks and on-premise environments, while evolving to support dynamic environments. We call the mix between traditional IT and dynamic environments the Hybrid IT. We have already started the work of supporting Hybrid IT environments with these new items:

  • We have created the Slim Poller, a containerised lightweight version of OP5 Monitor poller configuration. This was especially designed to enable the OP5 Monitor poller to run as a container in environments such as OpenShift and Kubernetes. Slim Poller supports autoscaling in Kubernetes, can be set up automatically with environment variables, and can auto-register with the cluster.
  • We have created a plugin specifically for monitoring Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources. The plugin allows for this by accessing the AWS native cloud monitoring called CloudWatch.
  • We have created a plugin for monitoring of Kubernetes cluster components such as deployments (replicas), nodes, and pods.
  • We have the latest version of OP5 Monitor available in AWS and Azure Marketplace for easy deployment in the cloud.
  • The check_vmware_v2 plugin replaces the check_vmware_api plugin to bring extended capabilities for monitoring VMware networks.
