Nimsoft Cloud Monitor

Nimsoft Cloud Monitor is a free standalone application that enables Rackspace customers to monitor performance and availability of their Rackspace servers while monitoring monthly resource usage to control cost. Dashboards display key performance metrics including server bandwidth, disk space, number of bytes in storage accounts and more. Thresholds can be set for each monitor so that users can be proactively notified when problems occur.

Some of the key features that you won't find in other monitoring tools are the built in synthetic transactions to monitor the actual performance of the Rackspace server instance such as file download/upload latency and throughput.

Rackspace customers can upgrade to the full Nimsoft Monitoring Solution where in addition to the Rackspace server performance monitoring you can also monitor the business critical services running on these servers including the end user experience, application, database and network performance in a single comprehensive solution.

Nimsoft provides a comprehensive solution to improving the end-user experience for business critical applications. From monitoring the application response time at the desktop through to monitoring the performance and availability of the entire IT infrastructure. Nimsoft is the only product that can give you a complete 360 degree view of business critical services. All Nimsoft information is correlated to business service dashboards and measured against pre-defined Service Level Agreements to warn you against SLA threatening conditions.
