BMC to acquire ProactiveNet
Today, BMC Announced the acquisition of ProactiveNet :
ProactiveNet provides a very pragmatic approach to root cause analysis by guiding the user along the process, reducing the knowledge required to diagnose events or alarms raised by various systems.
ProactiveNet's patented Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is unique in its approach to data and event correlation. In the heart of this approach is the automatically learned and continuously refined understanding of what is normal and abnormal in the environment. ProactiveNet "learns" the normal operating behavior of an environment and creates dynamic "intelligent" baselines of the normal operating mode. The product then captures and correlates baseline abnormalities and dispersed data points that occur outside of that baseline.
On top of that, the integration of this product with BMC Service impact Manager, the Atrium CMDB, as well as other BMC products, is opening a wide range of exciting capabilities.
