- Hardware and software inventory tracking
- Orion Platform Integration
Key Features
Track server and application changes
Get alerted when configurations change.
System and application configurations are changing constantly. Some changes are necessary and authorized, while others may be malicious or done outside normal processes. One thing they all have in common is they’re often the cause of outages, performance issues, or vulnerabilities. However, knowing when these changes took place and who made the change without a configuration change monitoring tool is nearly impossible.
Manage scripts and monitor output changes
Enhance change auditing capabilities by monitoring script outputs.
Homegrown scripts provide valuable insight into your organizations systems and applications. With SCM, you can centrally manage scripts, distribute those scripts to servers in your environment, and then track and alert on changes to the entire output of those scripts. Essentially expanding your change monitoring capacity to the level of your scripting prowess.
Monitor databases for unauthorized changes
Know quickly when your database configuration changes.
Your databases are mostly behind the scenes, but they’re critical to keeping your business running. SCM monitors for configuration changes to this infrastructure, and changes to user permissions and schemas.
Hardware and software inventory tracking
View and report on hardware and software inventories.
Gain better control of your hardware and software inventory with Server Configuration Monitor’s asset inventory tool. It’s designed to provide you with an up-to-date list of your hardware and software assets.
Correlate configuration changes to performance
Know if config changes are helping or hurting performance.
When a server is down or performing poorly, the change data collected by Server Configuration Monitor can be combined with the performance, health, and availability metrics collected by other Orion® Platform-based modules in a single visual timeline via PerfStack™. The combination of these two sets of data allows you to easily see if an application or server configuration change was the source of a performance issue or outage.
Orion Platform Integration
Unified infrastructure and change auditing.
Built on the Orion Platform, Server Configuration Monitor has direct access and integration with other enterprise level features and datasets.
