Virtualization Strategies for the CIO
Netuitive supports Hyper-V
Netuitive Inc.’s automated root-cause analysis software has been integrated with Microsoft’s
System Center management tools, meaning the tool now supports Hyper-V as well as VMware ESX virtual
environments. The company claims its software can synthesize data streams from any monitoring and
management source, using statistical analysis to self-learn, forecast and resolve IT issues before
they affect quality of service, without requiring manual rules, scripts or thresholds. This is
similar to the intellectual property VMware acquired from Integrien, Inc. last year, which has
since been folded into vCenter Operations.

Quest Software, Inc. and StorSimple plan to deliver a joint hybrid cloud backup, restore
and disaster recovery offering, the companies said this week. The product will be a combination of
Quest’s vRanger backup software and the StorSimple Hybrid Cloud Storage Appliance. StorSimple
performs primary data deduplication and compression, and automatically tiers data across
solid-state, SATA and public cloud-based storage capacity. Both products are VMware certified.

headquarters in the Stanford Research Park, taking over an adjacent 1 million square feet of
building space. This move could make VMware one of the largest employers in Palo Alto, Calif.
